Nobody could have predicted Kylie Jenner’s lion head Schiaparelli.
This week, celebrities went wild with their fashion choices. Between the Sundance Film Festival and the spring 2023 couture shows in Paris, there were plenty of unexpected risks to witness. No classic gowns or sleek suits here: A-listers went for bold designs that were destined to make headlines. I mean, who could have possibly predicted Kylie Jenner’s lion head Schiaparelli look? It was the most-discussed moment from couture—and exactly what a celebrity appearance should be all about.
At Valentino, Anne Hathaway piled on the sequins with an embroidered dress over embellished tights—finished with a leopard print bag and heels, because more is more! At Giambattista Valli, The White Lotus star Simona Tabasco leaned into the label’s frothy designs, sporting an orange tulle gown with a crisscrossed, ab-revealing cutout. These were very much ensembles worthy of a prime front row spot.
Statement outerwear also had a moment this week, too. At the Jean Paul Gaultier couture show, Doja Cat showed up in a bright blue leather coat with exaggerated shoulders—her waist cinched by a thick belt, which added shape.
