WSJ Innovators

Linda Evangelista

Look at that face. It's forever.

Kylie looks happy and confident, if also a bit like things are wiggling around too much in the bodice and making it a bit lopsided. She won an award for being an innovator for her clothing line, Khy, which launched... yesterday, and is SO new that the WSJ coverage of this didn't even spell its name correctly (they went with "Kye" and I hope they've fixed it). The site reads, "KHY AIMS TO REDEFINE THE MODERN WARDROBE BY OFFERING EDITED COLLECTIONS THAT SEAMLESSLY BLENDS LUXURY WITH EVERYDAY STYLE, SPANNING A DIVERSE RANGE OF CATEGORIES AND STYLES." I would not say... it's revolutionary? Or that innovative? Pass.

Haider Ackermann with Kylie

Haider presented the award; they worked together on her Met Gala look. Is it weird that she's in Ferragamo and not something by him? Also, you know who else wears a lot of Haider Ackermann?

Timothee Chalamet and Martin Scorsese

Martin Scorsese!!!! Just kidding. Timothee has worn it quite a lot, although THIS is D&G, which feels like the KardJenners' cursed influence. They both look fine.

BE IT LOVE IN THIS AIR???? (I will again note that Kylie smiled a LOT at this party.)

Whoever lit this stage, though, REALLY leaned into shadows. It's kind of menacing. (He presented an award to Scorsese, who was named a Film Innovator, presumably due to the fact that he's a real up-and-comer in the biz.)

Yahya Abdul-Mateen II

He makes a toque look dapper.

Alton Mason

Somehow both his coat AND his pants feel too long.

Molly Gordon

This is cute and cozy and I sure hope she doesn't overheat in there. I mean, I guess she can take the coat off? She just has to shove the string-belt into her pocket.

Questlove

I keep thinking that he's wearing giant orange culottes, and then having to blink and re-register it as a two-tone coat.

Tyshawn Jones

Ooh, I enjoy the checkerboard leather.

Karen Elson

Do those shoes seem way too bland for that dress?

Renee Rapp

This is pretty boring. Honestly, a LOT of outfits were boring.

Liya Kebede

See? It's fine but it's boring!

Lily Aldridge

Pretty! And boring!

Julia Louis-Dreyfus

This is okay, and also, I love her. She made a joke about being so busy innovating that she forgot to write a speech and had Chat GPT do it for her, and then read a paragraph about how honored she is to be WSJ's "investor" of the year. Hee.

Sza

Sza is also trying to liven up the proceedings with those socks, last seen on Annie on Broadway.

LaKeith Stanfield

I KNOW he has more interesting taste than this.

Trevor Noah

That's better. Dashing, even.

Martha Stewart

And we can always trust Martha to liven up the proceedings.
