Alyssa Milano dialed up early-aughts edge—strapless violet, belted greys, and a metallic clutch—at WB’s star-packed summer bash in Hollywood, July 2002.

There’s a kind of sartorial swagger that defined the early 2000s—low-slung belts, metallic accents, and silhouettes that flirted with rebellion. Alyssa Milano, ever the style chameleon, tapped into that energy at the WB Network’s 2002 Summer Party, held at the Renaissance Hollywood Hotel on July 13.

Her look? A study in contrasts. Milano wore a strapless purple top—tight, clean-lined, and unapologetically bold. The color, somewhere between plum and ultraviolet, caught the camera flashes like a nightclub strobe. Paired with wide-legged grey trousers, the outfit balanced structure with ease. But it was the wrap-around belt—looped, layered, and slightly askew—that gave the ensemble its whiplash chic. It wasn’t just an accessory; it was attitude.

She carried a metallic clutch, sleek and reflective, with a peek of green fabric inside—perhaps a scarf or a folded invite. The detail felt incidental, almost cinematic, like a prop in a Sofia Coppola frame. Her hair was styled in loose waves, parted down the middle, and her makeup leaned natural with a hint of gloss. No overkill, no overthinking.

Hermione Corfield unveils a vibrant, high-impact fashion moment with a ruby-red two-piece set that’s both sculptural and playfully chic.

There are moments in fashion when a color and a silhouette come together to create a true statement, and Hermione Corfield’s latest photoshoot is exactly that. It’s a jolt of pure visual energy, a bold, monochromatic look that feels both classic and surprisingly modern. The setting—an understated, cream-colored room—is a perfect, neutral backdrop, allowing the fiery hue of her ensemble to take center stage.

The outfit itself is a striking two-piece set in a brilliant shade of crimson. The top is a sleeveless, asymmetrical crop with a sharp, angular hem that grazes her midriff, while the skirt is a playful, high-waisted bubble silhouette cinched with a drawstring. The fabric, a shimmery taffeta or similar structured material, holds its shape with a dramatic flair, creating a sculptural effect that’s both elegant and fun. It’s a high-fashion take on a flirty summer look, a bold choice that perfectly suits her confident pose.

Her accessories are a study in complementary gold. A chunky, fluid gold chain rests at her neck, its liquid-like form providing a beautiful contrast to the crisp lines of the fabric. Her earrings are a similar sculptural gold, and a simple ring on her finger completes the ensemble. She has paired the outfit with stunning red block-heeled sandals, creating a seamless, head-to-toe monochromatic look. Her hair is pulled back into a sleek, tight bun, which puts a sharp, clean focus on her face and the look’s bold neckline.
