Am I the only person who didn't know this was happening? She looks fine but also like someone who was really into 90s Calvin Klein (which, in fairness, is the best CK) but wanted it sexier.

She looks GREAT in this, and it was credited as being styled by Law Roach. Given that this is custom, I assume this process began before his retirement from styling and she's currently in the market for someone new for future events? (He is currently in Mumbai so he didn't do this in person, if nothing else.) It's fab on her, and I also for a second thought she was talking on a pretend phone in this photo. (It's her earring.)

This hat feels a hair too big but I don't know from cowboy hats, so I am throwing it to the commentariat.

She's very cute and this appears to be three denim jackets buttoned onto one another.

The design of the step-and-repeat sort of makes him look like a floating torso.

Don't click in closer if you're shocked by A Sliver of Nipple, which is also my new band. (I actually think this is pretty cool, though.)
