The Fashionista Stories

This evening(September 14th) in Paris, Olivia Wilde hit the red carpet for the premiere of ‘The Invite’ which was held at the Pathe Palace.

One thing that I really love other than jumpsuits, is a perfectly tailored suit. Olivia served us with a power suit moment courtesy of SAINT LAURENT. Her PRE-FALL 2026 tan Prince of Wales Puppytooth suit feels incredibly fresh and perfect for the season.

This classic, menswear-inspired pattern was paired with a burgundy silk tie-neck blouse which soften the sharp lines of her double-breasted blazer and matching trousers. The rich burgundy hue created a gorgeous contrast against the neutral plaid, while the silk bow adds a feminine, romantic drape that elevates the entire outfit.

Olivia nailed this power look which was topped off with dark burgundy patent pumps from the same collection. Are you feeling Olivia's look as well? Comment below!

Gemma Chan returned to the carpet on Sunday(September 13th) for the premiere of 'Josephine' which was held during the 51st Toronto International Film Festival in Toronto, Canada.

With its delicate thin straps and beautiful textured fabric, this CALVIN KLEIN long dress offers a simple, but classic, romantic silhouette from the front.

The unexpected side openings add the right amount of modern edge and breathability without feeling overexposed. The textured fabric elevates a simple dress into something high-end and unique and she looked pretty wearing it.

Lea Seydoux & Lily-Rose Depp at the 51st Toronto International Film Festival 'Alpha Gang' Premiere

On Sunday(September 13th) Lea Seydoux and Lily-Rose Depp hit the carpet for the 'Alpha Gang' premiere during the 51st Toronto International Film Festival at the Princess of Wales Theatre in Toronto, Canada.

Lea Seydoux wore as LOUIS VUITTON black off-the-shoulder dress which was nipped at the waist and accessorized with black opera gloves and a diamond bracelet. If I had to nitpick here, I wish that she was wearing a belt with a buckle, not to pull in the waist, but to break of the dark hue. The red added a pop of color and a touch of edge to complete her look.

Julianne Moore in Bottega Veneta at the 51st Toronto International Film Festival ‘The Debut’ Premiere

Following the Kering Foundation dinner, Julianne Moore attended ‘The Debut’ premiere during the 51st Toronto International Film Festival at the Princess of Wales Theatre in Toronto, Canada on Sunday(September 13th).

For the occasion, she wore a crepe dress with fringes by BOTTEGA VENETA. The matte, structured texture of the crepe fabric provided a sophisticated silhouette, while the cascading fringes added instant movement with a playful, vintage-inspired edge.

Opting to keep the accessories light, allowed the fringe to do the heavy lifting. On the beauty end, her makeup was kept light to top off her look along with a center part ponytail.

Maggie Gyllenhaal in Prada at the 83rd Venice International Film Festival Closing Ceremony

On Saturday(September 12th) Maggie Gyllenhaal hit the red carpet for the 83rd Venice International Film Festival closing ceremony which was held at Sala Grande in Venice, Italy. Relive all of the looks from the festival HERE.

Maggie finished her jury duties at the festival in a mixed media dress by PRADA. Blue long puffy sleeves were attached to this black halter dress bringing to life a statement, fashion hybrid dress. I really like the idea of this, but I'm not sold on the execution.

Maybe, it's the color of the sleeves, but I think they could have found a better way to execute this. However, I love the necklace because it works with the idea of this dress. Are you feeling Maggie's mixed media dress?

Lisa in Louis Vuitton at the 51st Toronto International Film Festival 'Always Lalisa' Premiere

On Friday(September 11th) Lisa attended the 'Always Lalisa' premiere during the 51st Toronto International Film Festival which was held at the Roy Thomson Hall in Toronto, Canada.

Showing off her toned abs, she wore a custom LOUIS VUITTON two-piece outfit in a rich chocolate brown hue. This suits her perfectly but it is off putting to me. Don't get me wrong, I like the idea of this look, but the fabric and the color is what's bugging me.

If that were different, I feel like the outcome would be different. I want to note that I don't necessarily mind the belt directly on the bare waist because it shifts this outfit into high drama along with the gloves. Also, I'm not loving the choker. Again, the color and fabric combo is what started this look off in the wrong the direction. What do you think of Lisa's look?

This piece balances classic tailoring lines with in an unexpected color palette. He kept the base of his look simple, wearing a cream colored crewneck underneath which allowed his suit to do the talking. He looked great.

On Friday((September 11th) Chase Infiniti attended the premiere of ''The Julia Set'' which was held at the Princess of Wales Theatre during the 51st Toronto International Film Festival n Toronto, Canada.

Chase wore a LOUIS VUITTON mini dress that made a bold statement thanks to the color and texture of the fabric. The textured fabric adds rich, organic dimension to this classic silhouette, but I wish that it were in a different color.

It almost looks like she is wearing lettuce. It's just something about this shade of green that is not working for me. Generally speaking, she looked pretty. What do you think of Chase LV dress?

The frayed detailing sweeping across the dress adds an unexpected detail. The fabric is not my favorite, but Ayo beautifully wore this statement piece.

Colman Domingo looked sharp in a VALENTINO PRE-FALL 2026 suit.

This is a great example of understated luxury which he does so well. In the look book, the blazer was shown in white, but he could have rocked it in any color.

Lili Reinhart in Emanuel Ungaro at 'The Love Hypothesis' London Premiere

Lili Reinhart made her way to the carpet in London on Wednesday(September 9th) for the premiere of ''The Love Hypothesis'' which was held at BFI IMAX Waterloo.

I always love when celebs step out in vintage pieces and Lili did just that. She wore an EMANUEL UNGARO SPRING 2001 lilac slip dress with beaded fringe and green colored petals throughout. This dress beautifully balances soft, romantic charm with a little high-fashion drama.

This slip dress is so special because of its whimsical tone and unexpected details. The sparkling beaded fringe catches the light and creates playful movement while the green like petals adds a botanical contrast to this pretty lilac hue.

Lili looked gorgeous in this dress and she chose the right piece to make the ultimate statement. What do you think of Lili's look?

Naomi Watts in Petar Petrov Out in New York

On Wednesday(September 9th) Naomi Watts was spotted heading to the Today Show in New York to discuss National Hot Flash Day, her menopause, Spider-man and more.

We are heading into the fall season and Naomi is already ready for it. For her outing, she turned to PETAR PETROV wearing a FALL 2026 grey draped top with coordinating grey trousers. A monochromatic outfit when done right can be effortlessly chic.

The fluid, draped neckline of the sleeveless top softens the tailored, clean lines of the trousers, creating a perfect visual balance. The grey hue offers the perfect alternative to black and white, proving that you don't need bright colors to look sophisticated and polished.

Also, the snakeskin pumps acts as the neutral component here, injecting the right amount of edge and texture to add a break in the solid hue. With that said, I would have loved to see the top tucked in the trousers. Nonetheless, this was still a chic look. A TOD'S bag and KREWE sunglasses topped off her look.
