Over the centuries, fashion has evolved into a reflection of popularity and followership. While this might sound a bit sheepish, it’s not always a cause for raised eyebrows. The responsibility of setting trends and curating seasonal sartorial favorites often falls to celebrities, socialites, and—more recently—social media influencers. This dynamic usually lifts the burden from fans and lesser-known fashion enthusiasts, providing them with fresh direction. With Fashion Week on the horizon, the fashion world is ripe for fresh fads and re-imagined takes on the classics, making everyone more receptive to new ideas.
The year is off to a fantastic start, with standout moments like the Real Housewives of New York reunion and Keke Palmer and SZA’s latest release, One of Them Days. As more shows and releases unfold, the responsibility to showcase fashion in unique yet stylish ways becomes all the more important. Textures like fur continue to champion the mob wife aesthetic, perhaps lasting until winter gracefully gives way to spring. However, this trend isn’t about mindless layering; it’s a deliberate fusion of warmth and fashion. Take, for example, Keke Palmer’s Christian Dior pants set, which exuded a rich aunty vibe—radiating a healthy dose of class. So far, 2025 seems poised to deliver a year filled with memorable style moments.
The Looks
Keke Palmer’s press rounds for One of Them Days were undoubtedly one of last week’s highlights. She was on a winning streak, effortlessly transitioning from Christian Dior to Dolce & Gabbana to Schiaparelli, with each look exuding a vintage aura yet retaining her personal touch. For an old-fashioned vibe, she wore a plaid Schiaparelli ensemble, complete with a papa’s hat and boots. Throughout all her appearances, her striking ginger hair tied everything together. Whether styled in flip-up curls or voluminous waves, the bold hue made a powerful statement, perfectly complementing her flawless makeup.
Last week, black was the reigning color. From tailored suits to ball gowns, the hue made a strong statement across the board. At the Real Housewives of New York reunion, Sai De Silva embraced the drama in a voluminous Christian John Rogers dress. The gown, a dramatic dance of fabrics with varying textures and an asymmetrical hem, was as bold as the reunion itself. And, of course, what’s a reunion without a little drama?
