Chase Sui Wonders brought noir flirtation to the red carpet—cut-outs, chokers, and a flash of shoulder—at MPTF’s 19th Annual Evening Before in Los Angeles.
There’s something deliciously subversive about Chase Sui Wonders’ approach to red carpet dressing. At the 19th Annual Evening Before event hosted by MPTF in Los Angeles on September 13, 2025, she didn’t just show up—she delivered a look that felt like a wink to old Hollywood with a Gen Z twist. Think Audrey Hepburn meets downtown club kid.
Wonders wore a short, off-the-shoulder black dress that balanced structure with playfulness. The fabric appeared to be a matte satin or crepe—smooth, with just enough weight to hold the flared skirt’s shape. The fitted bodice featured a bold cut-out at the chest, adding a flash of skin that felt cheeky rather than overt. The silhouette was classic cocktail length, but the details made it feel fresh, modern, and unmistakably hers.
She paired the dress with black high-heeled sandals—minimal straps, maximum impact. A choker necklace added edge, anchoring the neckline and echoing the cut-out’s geometry. Small earrings completed the look without cluttering it. The accessories were cohesive, each one reinforcing the outfit’s balance of elegance and rebellion.
Sophie Ellis-Bextor turned editorial into performance art—pleats, poses, and unapologetic color—during her September shoot with Chantel King for The Guardian.
Sophie Ellis-Bextor has always danced to her own beat—literally and sartorially. But in her September 2025 editorial for The Guardian, shot by Chantel King, she didn’t just wear fashion. She weaponized it. The result? A visual symphony of saturated hues, theatrical silhouettes, and poses that felt more ballet than backdrop.
In one frame, Ellis-Bextor wears a flowing, pleated light blue ensemble that feels like a cross between Issey Miyake and a Grecian oracle. The fabric—lightweight and sculptural—cascades in dramatic waves, with wide sleeves that billow like wings mid-flight. The silhouette is layered and draped, creating movement even in stillness. In another look, she dons a textured cream sweater with a high collar and visible zipper—utilitarian, yes, but softened by the plush knit and her expressive styling.
Hair shifts between soft waves and structured bangs, always framing her face with intention. Makeup is playful: bright pink lipstick, electric blue eyeshadow that matches the backdrop, and skin that glows without shimmer. The styling is cohesive across color stories—each look a self-contained palette, each pose a punctuation mark.
Suki Waterhouse leaned into shaggy surrealism—faux fur, leather gloves, and editorial edge—at Kat Slootsky’s VOGUE UK shoot for the Michael Kors Fashion Show this September.
Suki Waterhouse doesn’t wear clothes—she inhabits them. At the September 2025 Michael Kors Fashion Show, captured in a moody editorial by Kat Slootsky for VOGUE UK, Waterhouse delivered a look that felt like a love letter to 1970s glam rock filtered through a post-pandemic lens of tactile indulgence. It was part Studio 54, part Berlin underground, and entirely her own.
The centerpiece? A sleeveless black top with a shaggy faux fur texture that blurred the line between garment and creature. It clung to her torso with a sculptural softness, catching light in unpredictable ways. Paired with sheer black tights and knee-high boots, the silhouette was elongated, lean, and unapologetically theatrical. The boots—structured, matte, and commanding—anchored the look with a sense of power.
Waterhouse’s black leather gloves extended past the elbows, adding a dominatrix-meets-debutante twist. No jewelry, no bag—just the gloves, which acted as both accessory and attitude. In a second look, she layered a voluminous green faux fur coat over a sleek black base, the contrast between textures creating a visual tension that felt editorially electric. Oversized sunglasses added mystery, while the warm lighting softened the drama into something cinematic.
