My toxic trait is that I think this event is kinda made up and that no one REALLY knows what it totally even is. Regardless! We beat on, boats against the current. This is kinda predictable on her but she also looks great in it. (I was like, "what is she even doing lately?" She's in a new Colleen Hoover adaptation, which I feel like she's too good an actress for but. It pays the bills!)
Kate Hudson in Khaite

Very film noire! Double check your life insurance around this lady.

I quite like this AND I suspect it's better in person.

VERY well done. (And the diamonds are so perfect.)
Natasha Lyonne

This is extremely in her wheelhouse. She looks good! She's one of the few people who could make this work.

This is REALLY good on her.
Coco Jones in Richard Quinn

I wish this dropped waist began its journey a little closer to her actual waist.
Hilary Duff in Anna October

First, her head looks SO pretty. Second, this is more Star Wars-adjacent than I tend to expect from Hilary. She's been trying some more directional looks lately and I'm not totally sure she carries them.

This is like an updated Cinderella and, frankly, I love it.

Ballsy, fashion-y choice on Noah! I love the big swing.

A classic for a reason; this is very successful.

This is neat! It's so repilitian, but beautiful. It's truly almost creepy?

And they both look great. They're such a cute couple. I do not encourage people to have babies unless they want to have babies because it's none of my business BUT if they DO choose to have babies, they will be cute and VERY COORDINATED PEOPLE.
Ben Stiller and Christine Taylor

As expected...reasonable.

This is A LOT of fringe. Arguably too much fringe, words I've truly never typed.

They did not walk the red carpet, which...come on, you two. You both look nice! No one at this event is going to ask you weird questions about your family feud with Brooklyn.
