It makes sense that the week’s best-dressed celebrities took big chances on the red carpet, almost as if they were getting ready for the statement ensembles they would undoubtedly rock on the renowned Met steps, as tomorrow is the 2024 Met Gala. Stars like Rosalía, Bella Hadid, and Anya-Taylor Joy have been sporting eye-catching looks in recent days, demonstrating that sometimes it’s preferable to commit to an experimental style rather than err on the side of caution.
Rosalía made an appearance this weekend in New York City, for example, sporting an almost spherical-shaped fake fur coat from Celine. She looked great in it, wearing it almost like a casual cloak. Joy also donned an oversized dress when promoting Furiosa in Sydney: her Paco Rabanne-inspired outfit from the spring 1996 couture collection had spikes and even matching headgear. The idea of them is that they’re not your typical LBDs; it’s wonderful when celebrities deviate from the norm and create a stunning fashion dream.
This week, some stylish ensembles were a little more understated but just as effective. Hari Hef completely wrapped herself in vibrant Balenciaga flowers at Vogue’s pre-Met event. While promoting her new fragrance brand Orebella, Bella Hadid also made a comeback to the street style scene. For the event, she wore a vintage Roberto Cavalli dress with a vibrant gardenia design on it. Minimalism is pausing for spring. And we’re ecstatic!
