Queen Latifah brought unshakable regality to Comic-Con (27.07.2025) in a look that fused Wakandan grandeur with Hollywood power suiting. (That cape? Majestic.)

Queen Latifah doesn’t just arrive—she ascends. At San Diego’s 2025 Comic-Con, celebrating the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art, she embodied a ruler bridging galaxies: part futuristic sovereign, part Golden Age Hollywood icon.

ess Bush’s black-on-black ensemble at Comic-Con San Diego (July 26, 2025) fused architectural drama with punk undertones—structured bodice, asymmetrical hem, and boots that bite.

She didn’t just arrive—she carved out space. On July 26, 2025, at Comic-Con International: San Diego, Jess Bush delivered a look that felt like a fashion exhale in a room full of capes and cosplay. No gimmicks. Just gothic precision.

Gaia Gozzi—Italy’s reigning dark pop siren—brought theatrical romance to Verona’s Teatro Romano (28.07.2025) in a look that was equal parts Medici opulence and modern goth poetry. (That corset? Chefs kiss.)

Gaia doesn’t do “subtle.” And thank God for that. Onstage at Verona’s ancient Teatro Romano—a setting that demands drama—she delivered a silhouette so fiercely Italian it could’ve been ripped from a Fellini dream sequence.

The Corset: Black, sculpted, with boning so precise it whispered 16th-century Florentine courtesan—but with a razor-sharp modern cut. Likely custom (no visible label, but that waist suppression? Pure haute couture). The satin had a liquid sheen, catching the stage lights like a Caravaggio painting come to life.

The Skirt: Voluminous, cascading in layers of tulle and chiffon—part ballet, part romantic decay . The hemline? Deliberately uneven, frayed just enough to suggest a heroine mid-transformation. (Alessandro Michele for Gucci vibes, but darker. More Sofia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette if she’d been into synth-pop.)

Accessories: Minimal but lethal. A single choker—thin, black velvet, likely vintage—and elbow-length leather gloves, fingers exposed for grip on the mic. Practical? No. Iconic? Absolutely.

Footwear: Platform boots, because of course. Chunky enough to stomp through a mosh pit, but with a pointed toe that kept the silhouette sharp. (Saint Laurent FW24 called—they want their attitude back.)

Hair & Makeup: Her signature raven waves, blown out into a just-slept-in mane. Makeup? Smudged kohl, a wine-stain lip (shade: NARS Powerful ), and a single beauty mark drawn high on the cheekbone—an ode to old Hollywood’s morbid glamour .

The Vibe: She wasn’t just performing—she was haunting . The way she draped herself over the mic stand, half-swooning, half-snarling… Verona’s ghosts approved.

This is Italian maximalism at its finest—decadent, a little messy, utterly alive . The corset nods to tradition, the skirt to rebellion, the gloves to… well, drama . It’s not just fashion; it’s theater .
