At Michael Rubin’s Casino Night, Graham channels sculptural ease—her draped teal satin and strappy heels evoke red carpet glamour with a kinetic twist.
Ashley Graham’s entrance at the REFORM Alliance Casino Night in Atlantic City wasn’t just a red carpet moment—it was a masterclass in movement. Her teal satin gown, asymmetrical and draped with precision, caught the light like a slow wave. The gathered bodice sculpted her silhouette with quiet drama, while the thigh-high slit introduced a flash of leg that felt more cinematic than sultry.
The fabric’s sheen—somewhere between ocean dusk and high-gloss lacquer—played beautifully against the event’s modern interior. Thin shoulder straps added delicacy, balancing the boldness of the drape. Her black strappy heels, minimal yet assertive, grounded the look with architectural clarity.
Graham’s pose was confident but unforced—one leg forward, shoulders relaxed, expression poised. In one frame, she’s joined by a guest in a classic tuxedo, the contrast amplifying her gown’s fluidity. In another, she stands beside a fellow attendee in a red satin dress, the pairing echoing a palette of jewel tones and gala grandeur.
Hair and makeup followed suit: softly waved locks and a neutral lip kept the focus on the dress’s sculptural lines. The lighting—bright, clean, and reflective—enhanced the satin’s texture, turning every step into a visual ripple.
At Netflix’s 2025 Emmy Celebration (NYA WEST, Hollywood) on September 14, 2025, Emmanuelle Chriqui wore a sculptural white mini that balanced sleek modernity with old-Hollywood allure.
She pairs the look with pointed pumps that appear to be nude patent (elongating the leg) and a small clutch that reads warm-tan in the camera flash. Jewelry is deliberately spare: delicate drop earrings and a slim bracelet—tiny punctuation marks that let the dress speak.
Photographed against Netflix’s textured green wall at NYA WEST in Hollywood , Chriqui’s posture is relaxed but deliberate—shoulders back, chin lifted—a quiet confidence. The lighting accentuates the dress’s clean planes and the soft sheen of her skin, giving the whole moment a slightly cinematic stillness.
This is sculptural minimalism meeting old-Hollywood poise: the cut-away neckline nods to red-carpet sexiness, while the short hem and engineered tailoring recall the 1990s/early-2000s minimalistas (think—sleek, mostly-quiet glamour). Is it a throwback or a refinement? It’s both—modern minimalism with a wink toward classic sex appeal.
Hair pulled back into a glossy, slick style and restrained makeup let geometry and skin do the talking. The overall effect is taut and controlled—intentionally unfussy—so when she turns, the eye reads silhouette first, accessory second.
In a sea of maximal gestures, Chriqui’s pared-back silhouette proves you don’t need frills to make a statement—just the right negative space. So: bold perfection or Emmy-night risk that paid off?

At Marylebone Theatre’s press night, Fisher pairs a graphic tee with striped tailoring and leather polish—her look lands somewhere between gallery opening and backstage cool.
Isla Fisher’s appearance at the press night performance of Seagull: True Story at London’s Marylebone Theatre on September 11, 2025, was a quiet flex in fashion fluency. No gowns, no glitter—just a sharp remix of streetwear and tailoring that felt refreshingly off-script.
She wore a black leather blazer with a subtle sheen, layered over a graphic t-shirt that added a touch of irreverence to the ensemble. The blazer’s structured shoulders and clean lapels gave the look its backbone, while the tee softened the line—think art school meets Soho boardroom.
Her black pinstriped trousers featured a striking green side stripe, injecting a sporty twist into an otherwise classic silhouette. The pants skimmed the floor, meeting crisp white sneakers that grounded the outfit in comfort and cool. A black handbag with a sleek finish completed the look, adding just enough polish without tipping into formality.
Fisher’s hair was styled in soft waves, parted to frame her face with ease. Her makeup was minimal, letting the outfit speak without interruption. The setting—a warmly lit theatre lobby with guests mingling across a patterned floor—added to the mood: intimate, creative, and just a little bit rebellious.
Culturally, the look taps into a broader movement toward hybrid dressing—where tailoring meets casual, and red carpet rules are rewritten in favor of personality. It’s a nod to the early 2000s’ love of contrast, updated with 2025’s obsession with wearable individuality.
