Lily James embodies the ultimate New York City street style, unveiling an immaculately tailored black midi dress that redefines daytime sophistication (and proves the little black dress is immortal).
Saweetie commands the Bronx and Banco show at NYFW in a sheer, floor-length crimson gown—a breathtaking synthesis of liquid fabric and dramatic, sensual volume.
Attending the Bronx and Banco show at New York Fashion Week , Saweetie made an unequivocal statement that she is fashion royalty. Her choice was a theatrical, yet perfectly executed, lesson in high-drama glamour, defining a moment where Old Hollywood decadence meets modern rap swagger.
The outfit, a floor-length gown in a rich, deep crimson, was engineered for maximum impact. The defining feature is the astonishingly deep cowl neckline that plunges well below the bust, creating a dramatically exposed decolletage. The fabric appears to be a lightweight, sheer jersey or micro-mesh, giving the appearance of liquid silk as it drapes and pools around her figure. The dress features subtle long sleeves and an asymmetrical, ruched or pleated detail over the shoulders, adding an element of Grecian goddess structure to the fluidity of the drape. The skirt adheres tightly to her hips before flaring out slightly into a mermaid-like silhouette near the floor.
Saweetie accessorized minimally, trusting the intensity of the dress and her styling to carry the look. Her only visible jewelry is a large, diamond-encrusted cocktail ring on her right hand, drawing attention to her long, pointed nails. There is no bag or heavy necklace—a wise decision to avoid cluttering the visual energy of the plunging neckline.
This ensemble is a daring celebration of the body and an intellectual wink at vintage glamour. It taps into the current trend of sheer fabrics and calculated reveals , but grounds it with the timeless elegance of its deep red hue and expertly draped silhouette. It is, unequivocally, a perfect front-row look, capturing the spectacle of fashion week while remaining true to the star’s bold aesthetic.
It’s hard to imagine a more commanding way to announce your presence at a fashion show—wouldn’t you agree?

Ryan Kiera Armstrong debuts a perfectly textured black minidress—a study in delicate, romantic structure—for the FX’s The Lowdown N.Y. premiere (and the start of fall red carpet season).
The actress Ryan Kiera Armstrong arrived at the New York premiere of FX’s The Lowdown mastering a look that balanced youthful whimsy with sophisticated texture. Steering clear of traditional black lace, she championed a dress that proved black can be the most dynamic color of all, especially when the craftsmanship is this intricate.
The dress is an instantly striking piece: a strapless minidress featuring a corset-like sweetheart neckline and a sharply tailored bodice that flows into an abbreviated, voluminous skirt. Its standout feature is the texture—the entire garment is composed of dense, three-dimensional floral appliqués in black, creating a rich, velvet-like surface that catches the light and adds exceptional depth. This tactile detail elevates the classic fit-and-flare silhouette into something truly special, feeling both modern and reminiscent of mid-century couture that emphasized shape and surface.
