Last Week, Stars Found Sustainable Couture and Spectacular Fashion

When fashion week collides with awards season, the result is an endless parade of outstanding outfits. Last week, the festive mood was global, bringing welcome excitement and timely exploration of the party wardrobe from Los Angeles to London.

In the front rows, Tom Ford reigned supreme, his Hollywood show enticing A-List risk-takers such as Miley Cyrus who dazzled in Ford’s luxe ’70s style jumpsuit and Rosie Hungtington-Whiteley who ditched her minimalist fare for a Friday night out in ombré sequins.

The British Vogue And Tiffany Co. fête at Annabel’s was fittingly fashionable, thanks to the likes of Victoria Beckham. The designer tweaked her classic tux by adding a ruffled black and white blouse with dandy flair for a look that was, well, posh. Likewise, Naomi Scott elevated the LBD in Christopher Kane’s galactic print satin number, embellished to the hilt with starburst crystals.

For the New York screening of director Autumn de Wilde’s Emma, actor Anna Taylor-Joy debuted a Loewe look fit for an Austen heroine. Her transparent lace top and Basque skirt combo flirted with the idea of the historical hoop skirt by accenting the hips while revealing all underpinnings. Across town at the party for Bvlgari’s B.zero1 Rock Collection, Zendaya celebrated in sustainable couture from Rahul Mishra. The feathered floor-length “leaf jacket” detailed with hundreds of embroidered vines was beautiful and ethically made.
