What a year it’s been for celebrity fashion. Not only do we have incredible press tour wardrobes and a few unforgettable red carpet moments to contend with, but those on stage really stepped it up too – and let’s not forget the rise of ‘quiet luxury’ or ‘quiet luxury’. Here are the many off-duty A-list moments that inspire our wardrobes.
From Margot Robbie’s Barbie tour to Beyoncé’s incredible stage costumes and Gwyneth Paltrow’s courtroom style, there’s been a lot to enjoy when it comes to celebrity fashion over the past 12 months.
Below, we round up the 10 best-dressed women of 2023, in no particular order.
1/Margot Robbie
There has never been this much commitment to a press tour. This summer, as Barbiemania spreads, Greta Gerwig’s movie star Margot Robbie and her stylist Andrew Mukamal have perfectly executed a series of perfectly executed red carpet looks, all directly inspired by Barbies of the past.
Of course, it’s not unusual for celebrities to pay homage to the project they’re promoting when it comes to red carpet decor; See Halle Bailey’s ocean-inspired Little Mermaid outfits or Jenna Ortega’s gothic glam Wednesday look for prime examples. – but nothing could quite prepare us for the joyful parade of doll-inspired outfits.
From Prada suits with pink Valentino polka dots and fun gingham to seriously coveted vintage Chanel, Robbie and Mukamal have set a new standard in press tour wear, and we’ll likely be seeing the impact for some time to come.
2/ Beyoncé
If Margot Robbie set the bar high on the red carpet, Beyoncé took the ‘turdrobe’ to another level. This year, the singer embarked on her highly anticipated Renaissance tour, where she performed 57 shows around the world in an ever-changing wardrobe of high-octane, couture looks.
Highlights included a Balenciaga ballgown embroidered with 8,000 crystal diamonds, a Valentino pink leotard with matching thigh-high boots, an expertly crafted Iris van Herpen ensemble (the workshop required 12 people to work more than 700 hours in total). ) and a Loewe catsuit with the brand’s signature trompe l’oeil hand motif.
The star has worn exclusive looks from almost every major fashion house, while also supporting many up-and-coming designers.
As tour wardrobes go, there’s never been anything like it.
3/Jennifer Lawrence
2023 was the year of ‘quiet luxury,’ and no one embodied that better than Jennifer Lawrence, who walked the streets of New York City head to toe on The Row.
The actress, who has always been admired for her red carpet style, attracted a lot of attention this year with her effortlessly cool off-duty fashion; This was a great example of why high-quality, understated pieces are what we should all be investing in. inside.
Lawrence’s wardrobe consisted of cotton white trousers, tailored two-pieces, chic linen trousers, crisp white T-shirts, and lots of gorgeous minimal bags. It was simple, effortless and the best example of ‘quiet luxury’ you could find.
4/Michelle Yeoh
If you think about awards season, you’ll remember that this year is Michelle Yeoh’s year. The actress, who has received various accolades, including Best Actress at the Oscars, has gone all out at the many award ceremonies she has attended and has showcased many looks to perfection.
One of our favorites was the SAG Awards, where Yeoh chose a statement gown from Schiaparelli that featured dramatic tassel detailing at the front. She wore shiny navy peplum sequins by Armani for the Golden Globes, a bright fuchsia Carolina Herrera cape for the Critics’ Choice Awards, and a flowing feathered dress by Dior for the Academy Awards.
5/Gwyneth Paltrow
Perhaps one of the most unexpected pop culture moments of the year was Gwyneth Paltrow’s attempted skiing accident. The Hollywood actress and businesswoman, who was found not at fault for an accident she was involved in in 2016, made headlines with both her witty remarks and her impeccably polished court wardrobe.
Throughout the days in the courtroom, Paltrow wore a number of looks that quickly became the ultimate advertisement for ‘hidden wealth’ or ‘quiet luxury.’ He wore button-up cashmere cardigans, gray wool suits, chunky-soled boots, and flashy glasses like The Row, Prada, and Loro Piana; All of this came at eye-watering prices, but was simple and understated.
Due to the somewhat humorous nature of the trial, which will now be the subject of its own television show, Paltrow’s ‘trial’ has become perfect internet fodder, and it couldn’t have been conducted any better.
6/ Sofia Richie
Sofia Richie’s style caught the world’s attention when she got married this spring. The media personality, who married music producer Elliott Grainge in the South of France this April, made headlines with her elegant bridal style, which included three custom Chanel couture dresses, cementing the ‘old money aesthetic’ she’s had ever since. Be the poster child.
Richie’s popularity on social media due to his refined fashion sense was another example of how fashion is moving away from obvious labels and flashy designer items. The star was praised for her elegant and ladylike style, which she put on big time while sitting in the front rows of Prada, Chanel and Proenza Schouler throughout fashion month.
7/Greta Lee
This was a breakout year for Greta Lee when it came to her wardrobe. The actress, who has appeared on The Morning Show and Past Lives, has become one of the most exciting faces to watch on the red carpet in 2023 by constantly pushing the boundaries and showing off the most interesting and unexpected looks.
We’ve seen Lee in plenty of Prada, Bottega Veneta, and Ferragamo, but the star mostly wears Loewe, the brand she works with, for red carpet moments, and it’s an incredibly fitting partnership.
Some Loewe highlights include the flowing white dress she wore to the Oscars after-party, the off-the-shoulder red satin dress she wore to the Academy Museum Gala this month, and the exaggerated scoop-neck black dress she was seen wearing. for the CFDA Awards in November.
Always willing to take risks and truly the best advertisement for Loewe, we can’t wait to see what Lee will wear next awards season.
8/Kylie Jenner
Kylie Jenner has grown up in the public eye, but this year we’ve really seen her style evolve. The reality star has always been known for her bold and eye-catching — often divisive — fashion, but in 2023 she’s leaned toward a softer take on style (some have even described it as a “makeover”). And it suits him.
Whether she was on the red carpet in custom Maison Margiela at the Academy Awards after-party or in a Jean Paul Gaultier gown and cape at the Met Gala, Jenner looked more polished and sophisticated than we’ve ever seen her. He carried this approach into his front-row and off-duty style; It stood out with white buttons, tight and wide dresses and flowing romantic dresses.
Although she still enjoys a bit of that trademark Kardashian glam, even Jenner wasn’t immune to the ‘quiet luxury’ movement, and we’ve loved seeing her transition into a new era of style.
9/Rachel Zegler
Another actress who is giving an excellent performance on the red carpet in 2023 is Rachel Zegler, star of West Side Story and the new Hunger Games. The actor, who often works closely with Dior, has delivered style success time and time again.
Some of Zegler’s best looks were at the Hunger Games press tour, where she took some inspiration from the movie for her outfits. She wore a flame-inspired Alexander McQueen dress (a nod to Jennifer Lawrence in the first film), a gothic black lace Dior gown, and a beautiful hoodie design by Elie Saab. She’s also worn Fendi, Armani and Michael Kors, and looked stunning in a gold Vivienne Westwood corset for the Academy Gala earlier this month.
10/ Sydney Sweeney
A well-dressed person is generally someone who has a distinctive personal style and never strays too far from it. That’s exactly why Sydney Sweeney has become one of our favorite stars to watch this year. The actress, who is currently promoting her new movie Any But You, stuck to the same winning formula throughout and looked like a bombastic movie star.
We’ve seen her in a barely-there sheer Givenchy dress, a form-fitting Balmain red midi dress, and sequins and corsets to match any number of romantic dresses.
Sweeney is the best advertisement for why we should all take advantage of what we know works best for us.
