She DID wear the matching mask that came with this on the runway, but fortunately not all night. I love this giant golden ball of drama.

This one may surprise people; I went rogue. But I thought the effect of the dress and the GIGANTIC necklace was so, so effective -- basically a smart way to elevate her usual very sexy styles. I just wish Russell had centered the pendant for her.

This man improves any room he's in, including this one that looks like he's in a bunker.

This is also so beautiful; Dior really, really took care of her this weekend.

Three cheers for a shimmery animal print.

This is SUCH a cool approach to take, she did it impeccably, and honestly I would also like this character direction for Marian.

It's fun to have new people to put in this slideshow. Certainly I have not usually looked twice at whatever she's wearing, but this is elegant and I appreciate the reach back 13 years for it.

This brand is traditionally bonkers, so this is actually very appealingly done -- and it's such a HUGE sexy improvement over the mess of her Oscars outfit that I wanted to give her a shot at this.
Odessa A'zion in Harris Reed

Another choice that may surprise, but it was sort of a boring Oscars, fashion-wise, so I met this with glee. And RIGHT as she was putting this on and heading out to this party, we were writing something in the newsletter about how her style had all run together for us and we wished she'd done something splashier. THIS IS IT. It's a cockamamie risk and I love that she took it, and she's selling it really well.

Rei's stylist wrote a great piece about how this is a tribute to Rihanna and to the color she wore at the first KPop Demon Hunters event. I love all this INFORMATION. Thank you, Team Rei.

This is the best thing she's worn, I think? I don't know if she's changed stylists or if they're just Figuring It Out, or if they're stepping it up because she's about to embark on a Devil Wears Prada 2 tour... we'll find out.

What a finish. Someone said they would have worn this to the Oscars and the green one here, and I can see that point for sure; I wonder if something about the other one was easier for long periods of sitting? Regardless: flawless.
