Gillian Jacobs channels an almost schoolgirl-meets-haute-couture aesthetic for her August 2025 photoshoot with GLAMOUR Mexico, proving that classic silhouettes can always feel fresh and relevant.
I’ve always been fascinated by the quiet power of an actress who isn’t defined by the red carpet. They are, shall we say, a fashion purist’s dream. Gillian Jacobs has always had that sensibility—an understated grace that translates into a truly captivating fashion moment when she chooses to have one. In her August 2025 editorial for GLAMOUR Mexico, she doesn’t just wear clothes; she inhabits a series of characters, each one a masterclass in elegant, sometimes playful, restraint. This is style for the woman who knows, and doesn’t need to shout about it. It’s all so… well, so quintessentially chic.
The looks are a beautiful study in silhouette and texture. In one image, she wears a sleeveless gray dress with a pronounced white collar. The dress’s full, structured skirt, gathered at the waist, feels like a modern interpretation of a mid-century schoolgirl uniform, but with a couture-level precision. It’s the kind of piece that could have walked a runway in Milan in the late ’50s, but feels completely fresh today. The simple act of clasping her hands and looking directly at the camera, a ring on her finger the only adornment, makes the entire look feel both innocent and fiercely confident. A paradox, but fashion is full of them.
Then there is the pinstripe blazer. Ah, the pinstripe. It can be so… staid. So expected. But paired with a crisply starched white shirt, worn slightly open, and a simple gold hoop earring, it becomes something else entirely. It feels lived-in, effortless, an ensemble you might borrow from a lover and wear to a café on the Left Bank. The way she rests her head on her hand, a look of thoughtful contemplation on her face, gives the blazer a soft, almost romantic air, transforming a piece of corporate uniform into a style statement. It’s the kind of subtle rebellion I adore.
And what to say about the sheer, creamy tulle gown? It’s pure poetry. The delicate, almost lace-like bodice and the voluminous, cascading skirt create a dreamy, ethereal quality. A different styling choice might have made this feel saccharine, but her dark, almost vampy lipstick and sharp, pointed black heels give it an edge. The juxtaposition is key—the softness of the fabric against the boldness of the makeup, a little bit of darkness to balance the light. It’s a look that feels both like a forgotten portrait from a bygone era and a daring fashion-forward statement. It’s this beautiful, delicious tension that makes it work.
Katy Perry attends Broadway’s ‘Oh, Mary!’ in New York City, debuting a chic (and surprisingly understated) look that—with a little vintage-inspired hair—feels perfectly suited for a night at the theater.
It is rare that a pop star so synonymous with maximalism and candy-colored aesthetics gives us a moment of such refined, almost retro elegance. But that is the magic of Katy Perry, non? On August 12, 2025, she was photographed backstage at the Lyceum Theatre on Broadway after a performance of the play “Oh, Mary!”. She unveiled a look that was a perfect ode to old Hollywood, a style that felt both timeless and entirely hers.
The foundation of the ensemble is a striking strapless dress, its dark navy skirt contrasting sharply with a white, corset-like bodice. The sharp, structured lines of the top half evoke a mid-century sensibility, a look that would have been right at home in a Hitchcock film. It’s an elegant silhouette that frames her décolletage beautifully.
But it’s the hair and makeup that truly complete this sartorial coup. Perry’s hair, styled into a sleek black bob with a blunt, micro-fringe, is a theatrical masterpiece in its own right. It calls to mind the iconic looks of the late ’50s and ’60s, a nod to both fashion history and the dramatic flair of the stage she was celebrating. The makeup is equally precise: a soft, smoky eye and a nude lip that allows her piercing blue eyes to be the focal point. It’s a clean, intentional look that demonstrates a maturity in her style evolution. It’s all so polished, so intentional.
Bella Hadid debuts her new Vivaia Jogger Re-Nylon sneakers on a West Hollywood street, delivering a masterclass in summer street style with a touch of unexpected fall luxury in Beverly Hills.
Ah, Bella. She’s a walking mood board, isn’t she? Just when you think you have her style pinned down—all sleek, architectural lines or Y2K-inspired rebellion—she pulls a move that is, shall we say, a complete sartorial swerve. The latest from the supermodel is a look that feels both utterly of the moment and a subtle nod to the future, as only she can manage. On a seemingly casual lunch outing with friends in West Hollywood on August 12, 2025, she unveiled a street style ensemble that was, in a word, perfect.
The look starts with a crisp, all-white palette that feels so fresh for a sweltering Los Angeles afternoon. A simple white tank top, artfully cropped to become a bralette with frayed, rough edges—very DIY, very cool. It’s a clever move, a little wink, non? Paired with white, low-rise, wide-leg jeans from Jean Paul Gaultier, the silhouette is effortlessly chic. She carried a complementary denim jacket in her hand, a detail that feels both practical and a bit nonchalant, as if to say, “I’m not even trying.” It’s that kind of unstudied elegance that is so difficult to replicate.
And then we come to the shoes. The sneaker-ballet flat hybrid, which she has been championing, has received a new update. She debuted Vivaia’s new Jogger Re-Nylon Yancys, fresh from the Fall/Winter 2025 collection. The new “sneakerinas” are a slimmer silhouette than their predecessor, the Cristinas, which she first sported in February 2025 and which subsequently sold out on four separate occasions. The new Jogger Re-Nylon Yancys, in a clean White Smokey Grey colorway, are a beautifully modern take on a classic idea. The rounded toe box and elasticized heel are just so good—it’s a shoe that marries comfort with true style. It’s a statement, without being loud.
But what truly elevates this street style moment from great to iconic is the handbag. Here is where Bella truly flexes her fashion-insider muscle. While everyone else is still clinging to their summer clutches, she heard the call to start styling fall pieces now. She carried an unreleased Saint Laurent Icarino Bag in quilted suede. A rare micro-mini style, this bag won’t even be in stores until fall. The brown quilted exterior, embroidered with the signature YSL logo, is a luxurious, tactile counterpoint to her crisp white look. The contrast—the casual street style with a whisper of fall’s decadent textures—is a perfect example of her forward-thinking approach to fashion. To finish it off, she slipped on a pair of wired, oval-shaped sunglasses, a final touch of cool-girl nonchalance.
This wasn’t just an outfit; it was a conversation starter. It was a calculated, yet effortless, display of why she remains one of the most compelling figures in modern fashion.
Get the Look: Bella Hadid’s West Hollywood Street Style
- The Frayed White Bralette : A simple white tank top, perhaps cropped with a pair of shears to give it that effortless, DIY feel. Or, you know, find a pre-frayed one.
- The Wide-Leg Jeans : Search for a pair of low-rise, wide-leg white jeans. Jean Paul Gaultier is the dream, of course, but there are plenty of options that capture the same relaxed, chic silhouette.
- The “Sneakerina” : Grab the Vivaia Jogger Re-Nylon Yancys in White Smokey Grey. Bella’s endorsement has made the brand an insider favorite, and these are sure to sell out. Act fast, non?
- The Statement Bag : This is the tricky part. Since the Saint Laurent Icarino Bag is not yet released, find a quilted, brown suede bag—perhaps a vintage piece—that captures the same rich texture and feel.
- The Final Touches : Don’t forget a pair of sleek, oval sunglasses to add that final touch of cool. The jacket is optional, but carrying it casually is the key to the whole vibe.
