Dua Lipa’s strapless slit dress and Alaïa pumps turned Spotify’s Service95 podcast into a runway moment—fishnets, florals, and all (because why not?).
Dua Lipa doesn’t just attend events—she curates them. At the Spotify x New York Public Library Service95 Book Club Live Podcast Recording, she arrived in a look that fused editorial edge with pop-star polish.
Her strapless black dress was pure drama: a structured bodice that hugged the torso, a thigh-high slit that revealed fishnet stockings, and a hemline that flirted with the floor. The fabric appeared matte, possibly crepe or satin-backed faille, offering a rich contrast to the shimmer of her hosiery. It’s the kind of silhouette that evokes old Hollywood but lands firmly in 2025.
The shoes? Confirmed: Alaïa Square Toe Pumps in Haircalf. Their bold blue hue and sculptural platform added a jolt of color and architectural tension to the otherwise monochrome palette. It’s a styling move that says, “I know the rules—and I’m rewriting them.”
Accessories were minimal, letting the textures do the talking. No necklace interrupted the neckline, and no bag cluttered the silhouette. Her pose—confident, relaxed, slightly angled—was pure red carpet fluency.
Roberts champions effortless, off-duty style while volunteering for Baby2Baby—proving that sometimes, the most authentic look is the one designed for action.
The line between celebrity fashion and practical dressing is often vast, but Emma Roberts effortlessly closed that gap while lending her support to the Baby2Baby organization. Attending a packing session at West Edge in New York on September 16, 2025, to celebrate a new statewide maternal health program, Roberts proved that true style often lies in minimalist, foundational pieces that allow the good work to speak for itself.
Her ensemble is the epitome of thoughtful, elevated casual-cool. She pairs classic mid-wash denim jeans , rolled once at the ankle for an easygoing finish, with an oversized black hooded sweatshirt . The silhouette is relaxed and comfortable—clearly chosen for functionality over fanfare. This move away from overt glamour is a subtle statement in itself, focusing the attention squarely on the cause.
The true artistry in this look is in the details. The black hoodie is worn slightly unzipped, revealing the collar of a crisp white layer underneath—a simple trick that adds a welcome touch of structure and contrast. The jeans, which appear to have a straight or slightly relaxed fit, anchor the look in timeless Americana. For footwear, she embraces a sporty, colorful rebellion with what appear to be low-top sneakers featuring a distinct graphic print on the side, adding a playful pop of color to the otherwise monochromatic upper half.
Roberts’s styling for the event is notably low-key, perfectly aligning with the hands-on atmosphere of the packing session. Her auburn hair is pulled back into a simple, neat bun, showcasing a fresh, radiant complexion—a welcome palette cleanser from heavy, event-ready makeup. This is street style distilled to its most intentional form: authentic, approachable, and focused on purpose. It’s a chic reminder that the best accessory is a helping hand.
Sadie Sink’s Marilyn Minter portrait for The New Yorker is a fog-drenched fantasy—voluminous curls, glistening lips, and earrings that practically echo through the mist.
Sadie Sink doesn’t just appear on the cover of The New Yorker—she detonates across it. In Marilyn Minter’s September 22, 2025 portrait, Sink is transformed into a high-gloss vision of surreal glamour, equal parts Warhol muse and modern siren.
Her voluminous red curls explode outward like a halo of firelight, rendered with painterly precision that feels both vintage and futuristic. The hair alone could headline a show at MoMA—bold, unapologetic, and unmistakably hers.
The makeup is pure drama: shimmering eyeshadow that catches the light like crushed gemstones, bold red lipstick with a lacquered finish, and skin that glows through the fogged glass effect like a Renaissance portrait dipped in neon. It’s beauty as spectacle, but with intention.
Adorning her ears are oversized, sculptural earrings—possibly custom or editorial pieces—evoking the maximalist jewelry trends of the late 1980s but reimagined for a post-digital age. They’re not just accessories; they’re punctuation marks.
