Elle Fanning brought Panem to the red carpet in a design by Robert Wun for Wednesday’s screening of “The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping” at Westfield London. Elle Fanning Gareth Cattermole/Getty Images The Oscar-nominated actress turned to the designer’s fall 2026 couture collection for her look — a sculptural dress with an illusion double bodice and ornately designed, pillbox-style fascinator with a posed ballerina, complete with tutu and a mirror. The ensemble was wholly evocative of the type of wardrobe curated for Effie Trinket, played by Elizabeth Banks in the original adaptation of the popular young adult book series. The dress itself was even quite ballerina-like with a soft pink ballerina slipper monochrome shade and tutu midi skirt, though with extra volume in this iteration. ...

Georgina Chapman John Nacion From the waist, a peplum detail created an extra layer of fabric and drew more attention to the focal point of the dress — the waist. Chapman continued with dark tones when it came to her accessories, sporti...

Others become part of fashion history. Valentino Garavani’s Rockstud falls firmly into the latter category, having outlasted countless footwear trends, from chunky dad sneakers to barely-there heels. And with fashion’s renewed appetite for statement accessories and early 2010s nostalgia, those unmistakable pyramid studs are looking particularly relevant again. SHOP VALENTINO ROCKSTUD SHOES First introduced in 2010 under then-creative directors Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli, the Rockstud took Valentino’s romantic design language and gave it an unexpected edge. Pointed toes, delicate straps, and pyramid-shaped studs quickly became a favorite among celebrities and fashion insiders, turning the shoes into one of the decade’s most recognizable luxu...

Their A-lister husbands all proposed with a round-cut engagement ring, one of the most fool-proof and timeless styles on the market right now. Before you discount them as predictable and overdone, know that round-cut diamond engagement rings come with a myriad of benefits. A standard round brilliant diamond has 57 or 58 facets, meaning it doles out excellent brilliance (white light reflection), sparkle, and fire (colorful light reflection) as compared to other diamond shapes like emerald and even oval. Round-cut stones are solid investments because they’re guaranteed to never go out of style. Trends in the engagement ring world wax and wane, but this shape has remained popular throughout it all (and across many generations), making it heirloom-worthy to th...

Once exclusively reserved for milestone occasions and fancy fêtes, the best tennis bracelets have evolved to become everyday jewelry staples that many women don’t leave home without. It’s likely that this change was precipitated by the rise of the quiet luxury and tenniscore aesthetics, positioning tennis bracelets as accessories capable of making casual and formal ensembles alike that much more polished. While TikTok trends have certainly worked in favor of reigniting the tennis bracelet’s worldwide popularity, its significance goes beyond fleeting internet moments. Today’s top jewelry brands are reimagining this classic by infusing it with contemporary appeal (read: lab-grown diamonds, color-happy gemstones, an array of diamond cuts, and bezel details), while effectively increasing the accessibility of the i...

Black cherry first appeared on the scene last year and, since then, has never really left. From Glossier lip balm tints to Proenza Schouler and Cult Gaia’s fall 2026 collections, in which it could almost be mistaken for eggplant, the fruit-inspired hue continues to pervade fashion and beauty circles — being lauded for its warmth, flattering depth, and noir undertones that make it more luxe than a comparably brighter red. Coach, it’s safe to say, understood the assignment: rolling out a slew of accessories in the past few weeks that are swathed in the Dark Cherry colorway, which lends the totes, purses, and card holders an elevated air. Most of the Coach silhouettes you already know and love were subject to the cherry treatment, including the Bella Hadid–endorsed Brooklyn, the quintessential Tabby, and t...

An ensemble of do-gooding stars decked out in Michael Kors gathered at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine on Monday evening for the 20th annual God’s Love We Deliver Golden Heart Awards.Kors has been a longtime supporter of the nonprofit, initially as a volunteer during the ’80s and now serving as co-chair. He believes that, like a good outfit, a good meal can nourish your soul and make you feel transformed.“Ultimately, at the end of the day what I love about fashion is that it changes people’s spirit. You put the right thing on, you feel different about yourself. You kind of go into the world feeling differently,” Kors said during cocktail hour on Monday. “When you find an organization that does that for people’s lives, you really see the difference. You see the joy when you walk into someone’s home with food that’s been tailored to their needs — it’s amazing. After all these years, delivering the food and being in the kitchen with the volunteers and p...
