Samara Weaving fused vintage lingerie-inspired silhouettes with modern sequin dazzle, proving that a little rebellion (and a lot of sparkle) is always chic.
The line between the bedroom and the red carpet … it has been blurred for years, but now? It has been completely erased, and I am not mad about it. Samara Weaving, at the “Eenie Meanie” Launch event with Beyond Fest at the Aero Theatre in Santa Monica on August 19, 2025, showed us exactly how it’s done. This isn’t just a look; it’s a statement about confidence, about sensuality, and about the sheer joy of dressing up for a night out.
The foundation of this stunning ensemble is, surprisingly, a piece of intimate wear that has been reimagined for the public eye. The Wiederhoeft Salon Silk-Satin Bustier Top is a masterpiece of classic design, with a corseted silhouette that cinches the waist and provides a sculptural top half. This feels like a direct homage to the opulent underpinnings of Parisian couture, doesn’t it? But the real visual whiplash comes from the Wiederhoeft Lingerie-Beaded Sequinned Miniskirt , a dazzling piece that marries the traditional craft of beading with the playful glint of modern sequins. It’s a skirt that quite literally captures the light, and the attention.
She anchored the entire look with a pair of sleek black patent leather Christian Louboutin Iriza Pumps, the perfect choice to lengthen the leg and add that undeniable touch of red-soled Parisian sophistication. And the accessories… Oh, the accessories. The single Sophia D Art Deco East-West Mosaic Diamond and Onyx Ring in Platinum was a perfect, understated touch of geometric elegance. But her Oliver Peoples Bianka Sunglasses , held in her hand, added a final, effortless layer of Hollywood cool, as if this whole dazzling affair were just… casual.

The Breakdown: Get the Look
Here’s how to master Samara’s confident, lingerie-inspired style:
- The Structured Bustier: A key piece for this look. Find a bustier or corset in a solid, sleek fabric. It should provide a clean, structured line to contrast with a flashier bottom.
- The Sequin Skirt: Look for a sequinned mini-skirt with an unexpected detail—beading, a unique pattern, or even a different type of shine. The goal is to make it feel special, not just sparkly.
- Sheer Tights: A subtle but crucial detail. Sheer black tights add a layer of sophistication and create a seamless line from the waist to the shoe.
- The Classic Pump: Opt for a pointed-toe pump in a solid color. A touch of patent leather, like Samara’s, adds an instant boost of high-fashion chic.
- Minimalist Jewelry: Let the outfit speak for itself. A single statement ring or a pair of simple earrings is all you need to complete this look.
Holly Hunter brings an unexpected dose of polished chic to San Diego Comic-Con, proving that quiet luxury can make a powerful statement—even on a convention floor.
The line between high fashion and the Comic-Con floor is often… a very long one, non? A place of spectacle, of fan devotion and glorious cosplay. But then, there is Holly Hunter. She arrives for the Star Trek Universe panel at the San Diego Convention Center on July 26, 2025, and completely redefines the dress code. It’s not a costume, it’s not a T-shirt—it is an event.
She is wearing a jumpsuit. But not just any jumpsuit. This is a head-to-toe monochromatic look in a beautiful, luminous camel shade. The fabric, which appears to be a silk or satin, has a fluid, liquid drape that catches the light so beautifully. The silhouette is everything here. An oversized top with a delicate pussy-bow tie at the neck, flowing into wide-leg trousers that pool softly at her feet. It’s a silhouette that speaks to a certain 1970s elegance, but feels so incredibly modern, so now .
What is truly genius is the styling. While many might pair this with a stiletto for the red carpet , Hunter chooses to ground the look with a pair of flat sneakers in a similar tone. It’s a choice that says, “I am comfortable, I am confident, and I am in control.” And in a sea of casual wear, this look is nothing short of a style masterclass. It’s a look of subtle power, of relaxed elegance. For more of this kind of elevated, unexpected celebrity style that challenges the status quo, you know where to look.
Brooks Nader debuts a Beverly Hills street style moment that’s equal parts edgy and playful, proving some looks just deserve a toast (literally).
There is a certain kind of glamour unique to Los Angeles, isn’t there? It’s less about the old-world polish of Paris and more about a high-impact, sun-drenched confidence. Brooks Nader, spotted making an appearance at Wally’s in Beverly Hills on August 19, 2025, perfectly embodied this ethos with a look that was both simple and utterly captivating.
The star of the show, without question, was that skirt. A black, patent leather (or faux leather, naturellement ), skater-style mini, but with a dramatic, glossy crocodile-embossed texture. It’s an instant classic, a piece that adds an edge without sacrificing femininity. She wisely paired it with a simple black tank top—a choice that allows the skirt’s texture to do all the talking. It’s a very clever move, really, that contrast between the smooth top and the highly-textured skirt.
The accessories sealed the deal. Her black, platform sandals with their thick, block heel and ankle strap provided a sturdy, modern foundation for the look. She accessorized with large gold hoop earrings and a pair of sunglasses perched on her head, creating that quintessential California street style vibe. The effortless, wavy blonde hair and a casual drink in her hand completed the picture of a woman entirely at ease in her own skin, and her own style.
