Rihanna has been papped wearing these shoes in the lead up to the launch, choosing to pair the sneakers with vintage Jean Paul Gaultier coats and jeans. Undoubtedly, the multi-talented singer and businesswoman has her unique mark on fashion and rightfully so.

The singer stole the show with her oversized, purple bird jacket and an outfit that was reminiscent of the early 2000s fashion scene amongst the punk and rapper community. Styled by, Jahleel Weaver, the multi-hyphenate wore the purple jacket with a checkered, tweed, red,Jacquard lining and a quilted leather finish over which the bird jacket laid. Rihanna choose to wore a white sport-jersey inspired slip with lace detailing below the jacket and excessively baggy JNCO-esque jeans popularized during the 90s. She accessorized the look by bringing back the “wallet string” chain except this was a string of diamanté hooked on to the loop of her jeans which collectively gave Green Day, Nickleback and Hot Topic a run for their money. She also wore a chunky necklace which coincided with the colours of the diamanté and stacked gold hoop earrings.

Rihanna’s makeup artist, Priscilla Ono gave her the signature Rihanna glow for her base, and an incredible purple smokey eye which I cannot help but see as a call back to the heavy purple shadows of the 00s, a la Britney Spears. She doubled down on the early noughties’ nostalgia with a dark lip liner and nude gloss. Rihanna’s hair was done by celebrity hair stylist, Yusuf who chose to put her hair in a preppy ponytail to match her top’s “Bring It On”, cheerleader vibes, with a curled swoop for her bangs in the front to frame her face.

The entire look was such a fun way to encapsulate the Y2K revival, especially as a celebrity who more or less defined the later years of the noughties. There is no one who could have pulled this look off other than her, once again proving there is no replacing the ultimate bad girl, RiRi.

You might not know her name yet, but you’ve seen her work. If the J Lo X Shakira Super Bowl halftime show doesn’t ring any bells, then maybe you remember the iconic ‘Yummy’ music video by Justin Bieber; or maybe it’s the Savage x Fenty shows that sound familiar to you. Watching them, you might’ve wondered who the person behind those daring dance moves was. The answer, Parris.

^{Image by Parris Goebel via YouTube}

Some people are born with a purpose; after watching Missy Elliot and Madonna dancing on TV, 5-year-old Goebel discovered hers, dance. ‘I’ve always been pretty confident in my dreams and where I see my future heading, so it didn’t take me very long to identify what I wanted to be when I grew up.’ she said in a 2017 interview. The New Zealand native dropped out of high school at just 15 to pursue her calling, forming a dance crew, Royal Family, and uploading herself on Youtube.

Her small troupe went on to win the World Hip Hop Dance Championship an unprecedented three times in a row.

After having worked with KPOP star CL in 2016, she popped up on Jennifer Lopez’s radar, which led to Parris choreographing Lopez’s world tour at just 19 years old. Her signature sassy and aggressive dance style (‘polyswagg’) broke the rising star into the industry as celebrities followed J Lo’s cue. Now, the 28-year-old has Ariana Grande, SZA, BLACKPINK, Janet Jackson, Nicki Minaj, and Justin Bieber on her roster. Oh yeah, and Justin’s iconic ‘Sorry’ music video a.k.a. one of the most viewed videos on Youtube? She choreographed that too. As if that wasn’t enough, she was also behind Rihanna’s iconic Super Bowl half time show this year.

https://www.instagram.com/p/CosbPlsJVbq/

After spending so much of her career as the industry’s best-kept backstage secret, Parris is finally stepping into the spotlight. She signed with IMG Models in 2018 and has since worked with giants like Dior and Alexander McQueen. She ‘polyswagged’ her way through a New York Fashion Week 2022 and became the face of UGG’s Spring campaign that same year. The star also recently co-hosted the NIKE Goddess experience after becoming a brand ambassador two years ago. And fashion’s not the only place Goebler’s leaving her mark: she’s released one music album, two books, choreographed two dance cult movies ( StepUp: All In), and received the New Zealand Order of Merit, and an EMMY

https://www.instagram.com/p/CiGPk7WhD4N/?img_index=1

But Parris didn’t start as an Emmy and MTV award-winning artist. She, like a lot of us, started with an impossible dream, wild determination, and unsupervised access to the Internet. In a recent Instagram post, Goebel’s wrote ‘As you climb the mountain of your dreams, you will be greatly challenged…but your passion, strength and LOVE for what you do will override anything standing in your way.’ And that she did. With a career like this, there’s no doubt she’s the newest MVP in the entertainment world (and all our FYPs). Wherever she goes next, one thing’s for certain: Parris is living up to her name.

The post Meet Parris Goebel, The Industry’s Best-Kept Secret appeared first on Voir Fashion.

But if there’s one key takeaway from the Louis Vuitton Spring Summer 2024 Show, it’s that it’s not just about fashion– it’s an immersive experience that’s a little bit Louis Vuitton, a little bit celebrity-inspired, and a whole lot Pharrell.

The Phlace

The show took place on Paris’ oldest bridge le Pont Neuf while overlooking the river Seine in a nod to the brand’s Parisian roots. Guests arrived by boat to see the historical location covered in Louis Vuitton’s signature Damier check, drinking champagne and enjoying chicken nuggets prepared by celebrity chef Jean Imbert. What followed was a three-hour celebratory spectacle filled with fashion, music, and culture that confirmed Vuitton’s promise to position itself as a ‘cultural brand’.

The Phriends

A live orchestra and gospel choir accompanied the 71 looks that strutted down the runway, building excitement that exploded as Jay-Z gave a surprise concert near the end. The rapper wasn’t the only A-lister in attendance; amongst the 1,750 guest list were also Naomi Campbell, Jaden and Willow Smith, Kim Kardashian, and Paris mayor Anne Hidalgo. Most notably however, were Pharrell’s closest friends lining the front row. From Beyoncé and Zendaya’s reunion to A$AP Rocky and Rihanna’s matching denim fits, the show seemed more like that party hosted by the cool, popular kids we all desperately wanted to get invited to.

The Phinspiration

But unlike those high school parties, Pharrell wants everyone to feel included with the ‘Lovers’ collection. Following his announcement to take the reigns on Valentine’s Day, the 50-year-old kept the capsule theme going by revolving the whole show around love and community. ‘I make clothes for humans’, he said to Vogue ahead of the show, ‘It’s very inspired by the love and support of the people here that I’ve just been blessed to be able to experience’. He even included his confidants inside the collection, with Rihanna being the face of the campaign and the clothes referencing Tyler The Creator’s signature preppy look.

The Phieces

And now on to the actual clothes. The runway opened with a neutral, boxy suit preliminary for the increasingly quirky and detailed looks that followed. Center stage was the LV Damier checkerboard, reinterpreted everywhere from leather biker jackets to fur coats. Pharrell also focused heavily on bags and introduced the ‘Damouflage pattern’, a digitized camo print that inspires thoughts of Minecraft.

Overall, the collection was an organized haphazard mix of vastly different aesthetics. Slick tailored pieces contrasted baggier clothes, and 70s flared trousers debuted alongside pearl-embedded tracksuits. Truly no style was left behind: there were leather football shirts, watch chain jewelry, camouflage parkas, and even a golf cart filled to the brim with LV trunks. The Vuitton logo was everywhere, with additional “LV Lovers” graphics plastered on both female and male models. There’s no doubt that a collage of so many opposing styles shouldn’t fit together; yet somehow Williams made it work.

The Phuture

^{https://www.instagram.com/p/Ctu8bdkq8UP/}

At the end of the show, Pharrell took a standing ovation in a ‘Damouflage’ patterned jacket and trousers, sweetly bringing out the Louis Vuitton design team to honor the community behind his debut (very on theme if you ask us). After such a grandiose presentation, the fashion industry is already wondering what the entertainment mogul is bringing to the table next. If his opening show is any hint, we can expect more statement bags, ‘Damouflage’ everywhere, break-the-internet moments, and a lot of celebrity power. The ‘phuture’ is Pharrell, and we’re all here for it.

The post The Pharrellification Of Louis Vuitton appeared first on Voir Fashion.

Pharrell has been reluctant to share any glimpses into the upcoming collection, which will be unveiled via a private runway show on the opening day of Paris Men’s Fashion Week, June 20th. The show will mark five years since Virgil Abloh, the last person to hold the role, presented his debut Louis Vuitton collection at the Palais Royal. 

_{https://www.instagram.com/p/CtiGA4MJQWO/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA%3D%3D}

Our first sneak peek— if you can describe a ginormous billboard as such— is a blown-up photograph of Rihanna plastered on the side of the Musée d’Orsay this Thursday, overlooking the Seine. In the image, a very pregnant Rihanna sports her signature unbuttoned shirt, accentuating her bump, and carries a takeaway coffee and four primary-coloured Louis Vuitton monogram bags. Her leather shirt features a pixelated pattern reminiscent of Louis Vuitton’s classic Damier print, and she pairs it with smart black trousers and two diamond necklaces. In a photo shared on Instagram, Pharrell poses in front of the billboard wearing a similar all-black outfit to match his muse. 

_{https://www.instagram.com/p/CtgE2s5OVYe/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA%3D%3D}

Pharrell and Rihanna go way back, collaborating on the song Lemon in 2017, and are rumoured to be working together again for her next album. Rihanna also has connections to LVMH, the French luxury conglomerate behind Louis Vuitton and Fenty’s beauty, skin, and (formerly) fashion lines. 

We are sure that the opening show will be a star-studded event, with Pharrell utilising his connections from the fashion and music industries. A true jack of all trades, Pharrell has won 13 Grammy awards, been nominated twice for an Academy award, and won the CFDA’s Fashion Icon Award in 2015. His predecessor, Virgil, was also a polymath— a qualified engineer, architect, DJ, and creator of the designer label Off White. 

Louis Vuitton welcomed Pharrell ‘home’, with his journey alongside the company beginning in 2004 when he designed the iconic ‘Millionaire’ sunglasses and another collab in 2008. He was also Chanel’s first male fashion ambassador and designed a collection with them, as well as creating a fragrance line with Comme des Garçons, a handbag line with Moynat, and sunglasses with Tiffany. He created the streetwear brand Billionaire Boys Club and its sister brand Ice Cream Footwear, and co-founded Bionic Yarn in 2010, a fibre made from recycled plastic bottles found in the sea. His most notable fashion collab is a long-term partnership between his HUMANRACE brand and Adidas, reimagining 2023’s It-Shoe—the Samba— in bright block colours.

_{https://www.instagram.com/p/Crd0QjqJWdy/}

We can expect to see a lot of streetwear and pop culture influences in his collection, with Hemant Kalbag of Alvarez & Marsal Consumer Retail Group telling Forbes that “Pharrell will help keep LV relevant to the next generation of LV customers”. He will be able to tap into the multifaceted aspect of Louis Vuitton, blending the past, present, and future and potentially collaborating with some of our favourite streetwear brands.

1. Christian Dior 2011 Fall Couture Show

At the Christian Dior 2011 Fall show, McGrath demonstrated her unique ability to create extravagant looks while stillmatching Dior’s overarching theme of celebrating ultra-femininity. The bedazzled look was sprawled all over Pinterest and other forms of social media.

_{^{(Photo Credits: Christian Dior Fall 2011)}}

2. Givenchy 2014 Spring Show

In McGrath’s work, we can how she utilises jewellery and accessories as makeup. We saw an incredible example of this during the Givenchy 2014 Spring show, where her models’ faces were completely covered in a dazzling bluemask with red lips. Their eyes were covered by mesh, making for a darker – almost haunting – look.

It seems McGrath works well with blue, as another one of her most influential makeup looks of all time featured this brilliant blue design running down one side of the model’s face. This abstract look accentuates all the higher pointson the model’s face using blue paint, resulting in a vibrant, lifted look.

_{^{(Photo Credits: Givenchy Spring Show 2014)}}

3. Rihanna – W Magazine September 2016

_{^{(Photo Credits: W Magazine September 2016)}}

McGrath also did Rihanna’s makeup for W Magazine’s September 2016 issue. The silver jewellery gave Rihanna’s skin a blueish tinge, while the exquisite gold ornament brightened her eye area, beautifully contrasting her brightred lip.

4. Versace Fall 2023

Versace’s 2023 show brought back ultra-bold eye makeup through thick black wings, topped with a blinding innercorner highlight. This striking look caught mass media attention and many influencers recreate this look in their own way. @jessiscg in TikTok went for a more subtle version of this look.

5. Schiaparelli Haute Couture Spring Summer 2023

McGrath was also behind the iconic Doja Cat look at this January’s Schiaparelli show. The look took 5 hours to complete as McGrath’s team hand-applied 30,000 Swarovski crystals to the rapper’s face, arms and head.

Beauty guru Anish Tamang recreated this stunning look in a video posted to his TikTok, pairing the makeup look withan all-black outfit, blazer and skirt combo.

While her makeup looks were show-stopping, her career doesn’t stop there. In 2015 she went on to launch Pat McGrath labs, boasting a range of base products, eyeshadow palettes, lipsticks and more. This luxury collection has been one of the best sellers at Selfridges since its launch.

The post It’s Time For A Spring Refresh. New Jacket Anyone? appeared first on Voir Fashion.

This year featured five performances from all the artists nominated for Best Original Song: Lady Gaga with ‘Hold my Hand’ from Top Gun: Maverick, Rihanna with ‘Lift Me Up’ from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Sofia Carson and Diane Warren with ‘Applause’ from Tell It like a Woman, Stephanie Hsu and David Byrne with ‘This is a Life’ from Everything Everywhere All At Once, and Rahul Sipligunj and Kaala Bhairava with ‘Naatu Naatu’ from RRR.

Composer of ‘Naatu Naatu’ MM Keeravani made history by winning the award for Best Original Song. Previously the first Indian song ever to be nominated for an Oscar, it is now the first Indian song to have won. The song has gathered millions of views on TikTok and YouTube and it’s easy to see why with its charming infectious spirit. Kaala Bhairava, one of the singers of ‘Naatu Naatu’, told The Hollywood Reporter that the song is award-worthy because it was “rooted to its nativity” whilst MM Keeravani said the song was “the pride of every Indian” in his acceptance speech. Though Gaga lost to the song, the video of her wholesome joyous reaction to hearing that the track had won has melted Twitter’s collective heart.

Singers Rahul Sipligunj and Kaala Bhairava set the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles alight with their ultra-peppy rendition of ‘Naatu Naatu’. Featuring more than 20 dancers performing the now iconic dynamic dance in Spring pastels the cast brought a breath of fresh air to the ceremony and received a standing ovation. Many were impressed that the performance translated onto the stage so well considering the dance in the film was shot over 15 days, with 150 dancers and a crew of 200 working 12 hours a day.

Gaga took to the stage for the fourth time at the Oscars this year giving a heartfelt rendition of her song ‘Hold My Hand’. She introduced the “deeply personal” song by telling the world, “you might find you can be your own hero even if you feel broken inside”. Changing out of her glam Versace gown, she chose to perform in a black T-shirt, jeans, and converse for a more casual look showing her versatility as a performer capable of earnest passion as well as her usual campy style. The last time Gaga performed at the Oscars was in 2019 when she teamed up with Bradley Cooper for the song ‘Shallow’ from A Star Is Born which won the award for Best Original Song later that night.

One of the highlights of the evening was Rihanna’s emotional tribute to Chadwick Boseman. Black Panther actress Danai Gurira made us all tear up with her introduction to the song as she remembered Boseman who sadly passed away in 2020. Gurira went on to call the Barbadian superstar “royalty in her own right”. Rihanna glowed as she performed pregnant in a custom-made look by Maison Margiela. She wore a stunning black bra embellished with draping crystals paired with matching black pants with a gold floral design.

Rihanna returned to the studio for the first time in six years to record ‘Lift Me Up’, which is also the first song that Rihanna has been nominated for an Academy Award in her career. The song deservedly achieved a standing ovation as well as a big cheer from boyfriend A$AP who seemed smitten with the singer as usual. According to Pop Crave when asked how her voice was feeling ahead of her performance Rihanna replied, “Beautiful. God-given.” 

Whilst Mitski and David Byrne’s ‘This is a Life’ didn’t win best song, fans were enthralled by Stephanie Hsu and David Byrne’s trippy number featuring hot dog fingers, flashing lights multiverse style, and Stephanie’s beautiful bagel costume. Everything Everywhere All At Once took home the most awards with a whopping seven total and now is one of the highest Oscar-winning films of all time.

Janelle Monae

_{^{Photo Credit: Getty Images}}

It seems that “less is more” was the memo for the 2023 Oscars, as so many of the stars went for more understated looks – Monae being one of them. Wearing a simple, radiant base and some subtle contour, all attention was drawn to her eyes. She went for an extra bold cat eye with a cut crease, topped off with some silver inner-corner highlight and the most gorgeous lashes. Her thick sculpted brows complemented the look perfectly. So as not to take attention away from the eyes, Monae’s look was finished off with a light nude lip and some clear gloss.

Tems

Tems strutted onto the carpet flaunting a warm, bronzey base, perfectly contrasting her icy, silver fox-eye and a pouty ombre lip. The Nigerian singer sported a pair of the longest false lashes we’ve seen in a while, which matched the flamboyancy of her dress. The makeup gave her an elegant, sophisticated look.

Rihanna

Rihanna graced us all with her beauty at the Oscars this year. The singer proudly showed off her baby bump while still looking absolutely flawless. Sporting a blood-red lip and a subtle fox eye, Rihanna looked classy as ever. The lip colour choice complemented her skin beautifully and made her eyes pop even more than usual. Her skin looked effortlessly airbrushed – no doubt the work of Fenty.

Malala Yousafzai

Malala Yousafzai made an appearance at this year’s Academy Awards, parading a natural and youthful look. Although wearing an enchanting silver dress, her makeup was relatively simple. The 25-year-old activist was not afraid to let her stunning natural skin shine through on the carpet. The bright lip colour brought a splash of pink hue to the overall outfit.

Lady Gaga didn’t seem to want to join in on the natural, stripped-down makeup trend on the Oscars carpet this year (at least not until her jaw-dropping performance later that night). The singer went for a dramatic smokey eye, paired with a neon red lip and rosy cheeks. Her face was sculpted beautifully with a cool-toned contour and setting powder, resulting in a bright, mattified look.

The Oscar’s After Party saw Kendall Jenner wearing a light, rosy makeup look topped with a messy bun. The look gave her a natural, refined appearance. Jenner clearly went for a warmer vibe with her makeup, sporting some peachy blush and matching lip gloss with minimal eye makeup. These sorts of stripped-down looks dominated the Oscars red carpet this year.

Halle Bailey

Halle Bailey turned up looking like a real-life fairy. Bailey was absolutely beaming the whole time she was on the carpet, clearly excited to share the new teaser for The Little Mermaid. The 22- year-old actress was clearly going for a Disney-inspired look, wearing silver eyeshadow, a soft glam base and a nude lip. This doe-eyed look managed to turn quite a few heads on the carpet.

Florence Pugh’s sculpted yet supple look matched perfectly with the current trend on the red carpet this year. Pugh chose to go for a pink theme – giving the look a playful feel without diminishing its gracefulness. The actress sported a glowy, more radiant finish – a trend that is becoming more and more popular at the moment.

Cara Delevingne

The Hollywood Glam look was brought back by none other than Cara Delevingne. In her stunning red dress, the star brought back the class and sophistication of 90s Hollywood makeup – with crimson eyeshadow, pink blush and rose lip gloss. The colour choice added a sense of grunginess to the elegant look – seeming reminiscent of the early 90s grunge era as well.

The post The 2023 Oscars Gave us Some Iconic Makeup Looks – Here Are Our Faves. appeared first on Voir Fashion.

Hunter Schafer

Hunter Schafer is one of the most daring dressers in Hollywood right now, and it always pays off. Wearing a bandeau that was (quite literally) as light as a feather and a silk maxi skirt to The Vanity Fair Oscar Party, she held onto her crown as the queen of avant-garde dressing. The look came courtesy of Ann Demeulemeester’s Fall 2023 collection, and it honestly looks like it was made for Hunter. 

Emily Ratajkowski 

Emily Ratajkowski is no stranger to the ‘naked dress’, from the Met Gala to running errands, Emily has proved that she can rock this look no matter the occasion. Last night was no different, wearing a shimmering sheer gown from Feben the model and author put a whole new spin on the look. Our favourite aspect of this look was the push and pull between what was on display and what was not, the contrast of the sheer material with the length of the dress, its high neck and gloved sleeves played with the notions of conservative or modest dressing.

Malala Yousafzai

Nobel Prize Laureate, Malala Yousafzai took to The Oscars red-carpet as an executive producer for Stranger at the Gate which was nominated for Best Documentary Short Film, just when you thought she couldn’t be any more inspirational. She wore a silver sequinned gown from Ralph Lauren and paired the glamorous look with a bold red lip. The best part of this look were the intricately placed crystals on the sleeve of the gown, highlighting the attention to detail that went into its design. 

Tems

Wearing a look from Ukrainian fashion house Lever Couture, Tems looked like the most high-fashion cloud you will ever see. The look defied gravity and looked so delicate yet structured. The way that the material flowed down through the skirt and up around Tems’ head gave an angelic feel to the look, as if the singer had just floated into the event on a cloud. Despite the ethereal nature of the look, it has caused some controversy. Fans took to Twitter to share their upset over the headpiece obstructing peoples view during the ceremony, but personally we would be honoured to have our view blocked by this look for a few hours. 

Simone Ashley

Bridgerton star, Simone Ashley, took to the Vanity Fair afterparty in a vibrant Nina Ricci look. The blue sequin gown cam courtesy of Harris Reed as the newest Creative Director for Nina Ricci and was full of his usual red-carpet flair. The look featured a dramatic slit up the skirt that had an oversized bow at the top that asymmetrically matched the one at the top of the gown’s one shoulder. We may know her as the Viscountess Bridgerton, but this look was pure modern Cinderella.

Kendall Jenner

Kendall Jenner looked like an Oscar brought to life at last night’s afterparty. The model wore a gold archival look from Jean Paul Gaultier’s 2008 Spring/Summer collection. The look was paired with a casual up-do and minimal makeup to let the mermaid-inspired dress do the talking. 

Janelle Monáe

Janelle Monáe opted for a custom Vera Wang gown for this year’s Academy Awards, a look that featured a black velvet bustier and loosely draped orange skirt. This look stood out in a sea of more traditional gowns, which is one of the things that we love the most about Janelle Monáe’s red-carpet looks.

Florence Pugh

Florence Pugh continued her immaculate partnership with Valentino for this year’s Oscars wearing one of the most dramatic looks of the night. Maison Valentino took to Instagram to share the look, describing it as “a beige taffeta draped dress, black cotton faille bows and a black stretch cady culotte”. But one thing we have to talk about is the hair; at the BAFTAs last month Miss Flo perfectly matched her spiky bun to the tulle ruffles of her Nina Ricci gown, a styling decision that was pure genius, and let me tell you, she’s done it again. For the Oscar’s Florence’s sleek up-do mimicked the billowing sleeves of her gown, perfectly tying the beauty look in with the outfit. 

Winnie Harlow

Winnie Harlow brought some fun to the Oscars last night with her neon yellow Giorigo Armani gown. While the silhouette was classic, the colour alone made the look standout. Featuring a crystal encrusted black flower on the left shoulder and a matching zip running just off-centre, the look capitalised on small details, making a look that was simple, yet intentional.

Halle Bailey

Halle Bailey proved that she is the people’s Ariel in a aqua-blue tulle gown at this year’s Oscars. The delicate ball-gown confirmed her status as a real-life Disney princess as the singer and actress was glowing down the red-carpet. This look just made us really excited for The Little Mermaid to come out in May.

Lady Gaga

2019 Oscar winner Lady Gaga took to the red-carpet last night and gave a surprise performance during the ceremony. While she may not have won Best Original Song this year, she definitely won on the red-carpet. Lady Gaga wore a Versace gown that was only presented on the runway last Thursday. The look featured a sheer bodice that connected to the dropped waistline of the A-line skirt in an exciting re-imagination of the classic ballgown. 

Rihanna

Rihanna is out here defending her crown as our best dressed celebrity in a custom Alaïa dress designed by Pieter Mulier. The look was unlike anything else we saw that night and made us so grateful to have Rihanna back on our red-carpets. The look was composed of a brown turtleneck with a leather bra and skirt layered over the top, something that does not sound red-carpet worthy but proves you wrong the instant that you see it.

Cara Delevingne

Cara Delevingne’s look honestly left us speechless, which is ok because the red Elie Saab ballgown really does speak for itself. Everything about it was perfect, from the dramatic bow on the shoulder to the way that the look draped around the waist into the voluptuous skirt, and don’t even get us started on the leg slit. At this rate, Cara will be reclaiming her position as fashion’s favourite it-girl very quickly. 

Jenny Slate

Actress Jenny Slate attended the 95^th Academy Awards with co-star Marcel in a custom Thom Browne look. The strapless gown was perfectly accessorised with a micro-cropped blazer that really accentuated the hourglass silhouette that the dress’ bodice created. And while we’re on the topic, we have to say that for a shell Marcel was pretty well dressed too.
