A maroon gown with painterly florals and sheer sleeves—Julia Butters brings romantic maximalism to PatBO’s NYFW show (and yes, it bloomed).

Julia Butters didn’t just attend the PatBO fashion show—she arrived like a walking canvas. On September 16, 2025, at New York Fashion Week, Butters stepped into the spotlight in a look that fused theatrical elegance with botanical exuberance.

Her gown, a floor-length maroon piece, was adorned with oversized floral prints in shades of pink, peach, and green—each bloom rendered with painterly precision. The off-the-shoulder neckline and sheer fabric around the arms added softness and movement, while the structured silhouette kept the look grounded. It’s a dress that evokes the romance of a Frida Kahlo portrait with the polish of a couture runway.

On her feet: white floral high-heeled shoes that echoed the motif without competing for attention. No visible jewelry, no handbag—just the dress, the stance, and the moment. Her hair, styled in soft waves, framed her face with youthful ease, while her makeup leaned fresh and luminous—think dewy skin, defined lashes, and a barely-there lip.

A navy sweater, pleated skirt, and pom-poms at her feet—Molly Gordon’s J.Crew moment blends collegiate charm with editorial cool (and it’s quietly brilliant).

Molly Gordon has always had range—but in J.Crew’s September 2025 campaign, she proves that fashion can be both nostalgic and fresh, all in one frame. Against a plain gray backdrop, Gordon stands poised in a look that channels prep-school polish with a wink of cheer squad rebellion.

The outfit is textbook Americana with a twist: a navy long-sleeve sweater with exaggerated sleeves, paired with a beige pleated skirt that hits mid-thigh. The textures are tactile—soft knit against crisp pleats—and the silhouette is balanced, relaxed on top, structured below. White socks and brown loafers ground the look in classic campus style, while a pile of red and white pom-poms at her feet adds a playful, almost cinematic touch.

Her pose is introspective—one hand grazing her face, the other folded across her torso—suggesting a moment of thoughtfulness rather than performance. It’s a quiet kind of confidence, the kind that doesn’t need to shout to be seen. The lighting is soft and even, letting the textures and palette do the storytelling.

Hair is worn long and loose, makeup minimal—just enough to highlight her features without competing with the styling. The overall mood evokes a Wes Anderson still or a Sofia Coppola frame: curated, nostalgic, and emotionally resonant.

A cascade of sequins, floral appliqué, and fearless poise—Elizabeth Gillies turns the PatBO fashion show into a garden of glam (with zero hesitation).

Elizabeth Gillies didn’t just attend the PatBO show at New York Fashion Week—she bloomed. On September 16, 2025, Gillies arrived in a look that felt less like a dress and more like a declaration: femininity, but make it fierce.

Her gown, sleeveless and floor-length, was drenched in red and pink floral embellishments, each petal sequined and strategically placed to sculpt the silhouette. The fabric shimmered under the venue’s overhead lighting, catching every camera flash like a firework in slow motion. It’s a dress that doesn’t whisper spring—it roars it, even in fall.

The cut was clean and body-conscious, with a sheer overlay that added dimension without distraction. No visible jewelry, no competing accessories—just the gown and Gillies’ presence. Her hair, styled in soft waves, framed her face with a romantic ease, while her makeup leaned glowy and editorial—think flushed cheeks, defined eyes, and a lip that didn’t try too hard.
