Taylor Momsen serves up a potent cocktail of raw glamour and backstage chaos for Nylon, proving—if proof were needed—that her rock-and-roll heart beats on.
In an industry of aesthetic chameleons, Taylor Momsen remains a defiant anchor of rock-and-roll authenticity. Her September 2025 photoshoot for Nylon Magazine is less a reinvention and more a powerful doubling-down on the gothic glamour she has masterfully cultivated for over a decade. This isn’t a performance; it’s a confirmation.
The centerpiece is a black suit, but calling it just a suit feels inadequate. Crafted from a fabric with a liquid-like satin sheen, it absorbs and reflects light with moody intensity. The blazer is oversized and double-breasted, worn daringly open against bare skin, its power residing in both what it reveals and what it suggests. The shoulders are adorned with distressed, almost shredded fabric, a detail that feels both high-fashion and beautifully undone. Paired with matching wide-leg trousers, the silhouette is fluid yet imposing, channeling the androgynous cool of 70s rock icons.
Momsen’s styling is a testament to her unwavering personal brand. Her signature platinum blonde hair is left artfully disheveled, while her eyes are framed in the heavy, kohl-rimmed smokiness that has become her trademark. Jewelry is substantial and silver—a tangle of necklaces resting on her collarbone and a collection of chunky rings that feel like part of her very being. The entire look is a masterclass in cohesive personal expression, a prime example of a celebrity style that is instantly recognizable and utterly her own.
The photoshoot brilliantly captures her duality. One moment, she stands against the New York skyline, the wind catching her jacket like a cape. The next, she’s crouched vulnerably on a mosaic of John Lennon’s “Imagine,” her fierce gaze softened. Interspersed are candid moments—sipping a smoothie in the hair-and-makeup chair or relaxing on a couch with a stuffed rat—that peel back the layers of the rock goddess to reveal the artist within. Is the suit armor or an extension of self?
Aybuke Pusat, a queen of effortless style, showcases how to master beachwear with a plaid bikini that feels both playful and refreshingly unbothered—a true lesson in coastal glamour.
Aybuke Pusat reminds us that a truly great look is less about drama and more about attitude. Trading the high-octane spectacle of a red carpet for the sun-drenched simplicity of a sandy shore, the Turkish actress offers a masterclass in laid-back elegance. This isnt about grand statements; it’s about the quiet confidence of a perfect fit and a mood that’s pure, unadulterated relaxation.
The look is centered on a plaid bikini in a deep, marine blue and forest green check. The fabric, with its slight crinkle texture and delicate ruffle trim along the bra top and bottom, adds a touch of whimsical, almost nostalgic charm. The bra top features a classic triangle cut, providing a timeless silhouette, while the bottoms are a low-rise cut with matching ruffles, emphasizing a youthful, carefree vibe. Its the kind of swimwear that looks stylish without trying too hard, a subtle nod to classic prints reimagined for a modern setting.
Emily Ratajkowski redefines terminal chic with a 90s-infused look at JFK, proving (once again) that her off-duty wardrobe is as curated as any runway.
The age of the perfectly coordinated, head-to-toe designer sweatsuit for air travel might just be over. Or at least, it’s facing a formidable challenger. Arriving at New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport on September 12, 2025, Emily Ratajkowski offered a masterclass in a grittier, more authentic travel uniform.
This wasn’t about plush cashmere; it was about attitude. Ratajkowski anchored her look in a stark black bandeau top, a minimalist sliver of fabric that served as a quiet counterpoint to the volume below. The silhouette then exploded into oversized black cargo pants, their weighty, utilitarian drape punctuated by a searing, vertical red stripe down the side—a racing detail that lent an unexpected jolt of velocity. In a quintessential 90s move, a grey and black striped shirt was slung casually around her waist, acting as both a functional layer and a stylistic anchor to the grunge era.
Accessories were chosen for impact and practicality. Sleek, narrow black sunglasses shielded her from the city glare, while her only visible jewelry was a subtle belly button stud. The real narrative twist, however, was at her feet: a pair of gleaming silver sneakers that felt less like a comfort choice and more like a futuristic statement—a flash of chrome against the asphalt. Her luggage, a formidable black hard-shell suitcase and matching duffel, underscored the look’s purpose. This is a woman in motion.
The entire ensemble reads as a knowing nod to late-90s and early-Y2K aesthetics. It’s a look that eschews overt luxury for a brand of coolness that feels earned, not bought. In a landscape saturated with performative travel wardrobes, Ratajkowski’s choice feels refreshingly grounded, channeling a moment when celebrity street style felt more spontaneous and less like a planned photoshoot. The effect is one of total cohesion—the straight, center-parted hair and minimal makeup reinforce that this is about ease, not effort.
