Sabrina Carpenter unveils a new pop-goddess glamour, fusing playful rebellion with a sleek, fashion-forward sensibility for her 2025 editorial.
The story of a pop star’s evolution is often a tale told in hemlines and sequins. And in her latest editorial for Queens of Pop , Sabrina Carpenter presents a visual narrative as compelling as her music. There is, as she puts it, “a sense of separation from them [the early records], largely due to the shift in who I am as a person and as an artist, pre-pandemic and post-pandemic”. This is what happens when a Disney star who once felt she had “less creative control” becomes the pop star with a hit like “Nonsense”, a definitive “queen of pithy, playful, precision-tooled pop”. Her fashion has finally caught up with her voice.
We see it first in a stunning, shimmering couture dress—a vision of beaded fringe and nude-toned illusion that feels both delicate and commanding. It is a far cry from the “frothy and optimistic” pop of her early track “Can’t Blame a Girl for Trying”, or the “jangly folk-pop track” of “The Middle of Starting Over”. This is a more mature look, one that echoes the lyrical confidence of an artist who now has full command of her style and her sound.
Dame Helen Mirren attends The Tonight Show in gilded sophistication, proving that true glamour—like a good story—is timeless and always unexpected.
There are some stars whose presence alone is the event. Helen Mirren is one such rare icon. When she appears, one expects a masterclass in both wit and style , and her recent appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on 08/11/2025 was no exception. She arrived not just to tell a story about a horse in a restaurant in London—a detail that is, frankly, everything—but to deliver a lesson in poised, sophisticated dressing.
Her outfit was centered around a sleeveless patterned dress that, upon first glance, appears almost deceptively simple. A closer look, however, reveals an intricate, almost Art Deco-inspired design in a light, neutral palette with shimmering metallic gold accents. It is the kind of fabric that moves with its own light, refusing to be a mere background for the conversation. This dress, with its high collar and beautifully cinched waist via a metallic belt, is a testament to the power of a well-considered silhouette. It is both strong and graceful.
The cohesion of the look is where the magic truly lies. She completed the ensemble with gold, pointed-toe heels—a bold choice that perfectly mirrored the delicate metallic threads within the dress. Her jewelry was minimal, allowing the dress to take center stage, while her signature silver hair was styled with effortless polish. The entire look is a beautiful demonstration of how to embrace both whimsy and polish, a blend that is uniquely, unequivocally Helen Mirren.
And so, whether she is telling a wild story about a horse in a London restaurant or simply making her way to a talk show stage, Helen Mirren proves that real glamour is less about the outfit and more about the woman wearing it.
In London, Rachel Zegler debuts a masterclass in classic-cool, making a red Adidas top and tiny denim shorts feel effortlessly romantic.
There is a certain effortless alchemy in the way some people dress—a seemingly simple combination that, when worn, becomes something more. It’s a secret that the French have mastered, and one that is not always easy to replicate. But in London , on August 13, 2025 , Rachel Zegler stepped out and proved she possesses it in spades. She was captured enjoying lunch at a park, and her street style look was a perfect study in elevated, off-duty dressing.
The hero of the outfit ? A crisp, red Adidas top. A classic, yes, with those three unmistakable stripes, but the choice of such a bold, solid color makes it feel both fresh and nostalgic. It’s the kind of piece you might have owned twenty years ago, and yet, it feels so perfectly right for now.
To balance the athletic sensibility of the top, she wore a pair of very short denim shorts , showcasing a relaxed and confident silhouette. The casual, cut-off nature of the shorts adds a touch of bohemian ease, creating a harmonious dialogue between the structured sportiness of the top and the laid-back nonchalance of the denim. It’s an ensemble that feels authentically herself—and utterly perfect for a casual outing in the city. The look is entirely functional, but never sacrifices style. Is it a simple outfit ? Of course. But is it chic? Absolutely.
