Last Week’s Best Dressed Stars Redefined The Rules Of Slay

There’s something deliciously on point about watching the rich and ridiculously stylish devour fashion like it’s a full-course meal—whether on press rounds, at movie premieres, or during solo airport strolls that double as personal runways. Last week, the fashion gods didn’t just show up; they put in overtime. From magazine covers that served archival-level drama to red carpet moments that delivered the most delightfully unexpected fits, the energy was anything but safe.

Indeed, between jet-set street style and premiere slayage, the week felt like a buffet of elegance, controlled chaos, and well-earned flexes. Fashion wasn’t merely worn; it was performed. And just in case you missed the memo: comfy shoes are officially in, sheer mesh is having a high-fashion moment, and classic tailoring has been hijacked and remixed by the stars. So, let’s unpack it all. Who brought the drama, who set the vibes, and which silhouettes are destined to dominate your Pinterest feed by next week?

The Looks

Skai Jackson brought full feline energy to the Fantastic Four: First Steps premiere in a spaghetti-strap, leopard-print maxi dress that hugged her frame with ease. The sheer, body-skimming silhouette featured a plunging neckline and mixed animal-print panels—leopard, zebra, and cheetah—for a wild, yet seamless mashup. Then came the twist: subtle teal-green side panels added a pop of color that elevated the look from classic to runway-ready. With stretch fabric that moved effortlessly and bold details that balanced edge with elegance, this was a masterclass in sleek, untamed glam.

Speaking of sleek, Tracee Ellis Ross turned the streets of Manhattan into her personal runway in a Jacquemus co-ord that screamed summer chic. Oversized sky-blue and white stripes? Absolutely. The look paired a pleated A-line maxi skirt with a slouchy V-neck blouse featuring voluminous sleeves and a surprise back cutout—slouchy, but still structured. Under the sheer tunic, a black bra peeked through just enough. She tied it all together with glossy black pointed pumps (tiny bow detail alert), an icy-white structured bag, and shell-cluster drop earrings that caught the light beautifully. Her hair, slicked into a high bun under a cobalt-blue mesh net, turned a simple updo into a full accessory moment. With fresh, minimal beauty to balance all the boldness, Tracee proved that volume rules, comfort stuns, and any sidewalk can be a catwalk if you serve it right.

Enough said! Keke Palmer’s look at the Pickup premiere was criminally pleasing. She hit the L.A. red carpet in a knockout one-shoulder gown—floor-length, single-sleeved, and oozing sleek glamour. The slate-gray fabric shimmered with subtle sheen, while sheer panels carved out a curve-hugging silhouette. Intricate, organic beaded appliqués added texture and a cinematic edge. But the real headline? Her hair. A voluminous copper-red mane, now practically her signature, spilled in loose curls around her face and shoulders. The fiery hue clashed brilliantly with the gown’s cool tone, adding bold contrast and confirming Keke’s status as a fearless, ever-evolving style chameleon.
