This week’s best dressed stars showed that statement dressing doesn’t always have to be loud and voluminous. Celebrities like Zendaya, Rihanna, and Megan Thee Stallion all opted for looks that were quietly elegant yet still made a major fashion impact. The key to these subtle ensembles shining was in the cut and silhouette, with details like squared necklines and bejeweled shoulder straps adding a fresh twist. From black column gowns to oversized beige suits, these celebrities proved that less can be more when it comes to red carpet style.
Megan Thee Stallion stunned in a black Versace column gown with gold shoulder straps at a Planned Parenthood gala in New York City, while Zoe Kravitz went for a sheer Saint Laurent look with a classic black coat thrown overtop at a Cabaret preview in Manhattan. In London, Rihanna reimagined a classic two-piece suit with oversized beige tailoring by Peter Do, giving it a cool and modern twist. These celebrities showed that a simple silhouette can still make a bold statement with the right details and styling.
While most stars opted for more subdued looks, there were a few bold fashion moments this week as well. Zendaya chose a sculptural Jacquemus design with hip cutouts and a full skirt for a Challengers photo call in Los Angeles, while Hoyeon Jung went for shimmer in a sheer, paillette-covered dress from Louis Vuitton’s pre-fall 2024 collection at a show in Shanghai. When it comes to standing out on the red carpet, sometimes embracing disco ball dressing is the way to go.
