Keen, perched elegantly, debuted a look that felt both relaxed and undeniably sharp. Her choice of a rich red cardigan, worn open and casually revealing a hint of skin, exuded a confident ease. Paired with impeccably tailored, wide-leg beige trousers that pooled gracefully around her feet, the ensemble spoke volumes about quiet luxury. The crisp pleats of the trousers, a testament to thoughtful design, created a silhouette that was both fluid and structured. Completing her look were sleek black pointed-toe heels, adding a sophisticated edge that grounded the entire outfit. Her dark hair, loosely styled, framed a face that held a captivating intensity.

Beside her, Sophie Nélisse presented a bold counterpoint, embracing a utilitarian-chic aesthetic with a playful twist. Her dark-wash denim jumpsuit, a piece that could easily lean casual, was elevated by unexpected plaid patch details running down the sides—a clever infusion of pattern and texture. The sleeveless cut and visible stitching hinted at a workwear inspiration, but the overall execution was pure fashion-forward. On her feet, classic white sneakers with grey accents cemented the relaxed yet deliberate vibe. Her lighter, subtly waved hair and direct gaze added to the approachable confidence of her ensemble.

Elle Fanning sliced through San Diego Comic-Con’s buzz with neon-pumped swagger — a bold, alien-green flash (dare we say overdue?) that redefines red-carpet rebellion.

Elle Fanning didn’t just attend the “Predator: Badlands” panel at San Diego Comic-Con 2025 — she commandeered it, her presence a visual jolt against the Hall H hum. Standing before the Comic-Con backdrop, she wielded a pair of pointed neon pumps, their chartreuse hue a siren call beneath jet-black trousers that grazed the floor. The shoes, with their matte finish and stiletto bite, weren’t just footwear — they were a statement, a sleek punctuation to an outfit that hummed with sci-fi edge.
