Over two years ago, Gwyneth Paltrow inadvertently became an avatar of the quiet luxury trend while taking the stand in her ski accident trial in Deer Valley, Utah. While her sumptuous knits and smart suiting did help catalyze the stealth wealth craze, Paltrow’s own style usually has a bit more of an edge, expressed through bold colors or a little sparkle. Yesterday, she embraced the latter at the Max Mara resort 2026 show.
Paltrow joined the likes of Joey King and Alexa Chung in the front row at the Naples, Italy show. For the occasion, she embraced her ski trial conventions—neutrals and knits—with some sparkle thrown in for good measure. On top, Paltrow wore a beige knit short-sleeved V-neck with ribbing to the bust and a haphazard sprinkling of brown rhinestones and paillettes. She paired it with a matching beige A-line midi skirt. As for her shoes, she kept it in the color family with a pair of warm brown pointy-toe heels.
With her sophisticated silhouette, luxe materials, and neutral palette—plus the added pizzazz of her rhinestone and sequin embellishments—Gwyneth Paltrow is giving her ski trial style a ritzier second act.
