Tracee Ellis Ross

Tracee Ellis Ross wore a lacey black Erdem ensemble with electric yellow gloves to the Fashion Trust US Awards. Fashion Reverie’s feels that this is not Ross’ best look in 2023; in fact, this red-carpet ensemble was a rather dowdy look for Tracee Ellis. Better luck next time!!

Taylor Swift

The 95th Academy Awards Now and Next Male Celebrities Red-Carpet Looks

March 14, 2023 by admin Leave a Comment

The epitome of Award Season is the Academy Awards. Though we love the Grammys, Golden Globes, BET Awards, and MTV Awards, when it comes to red-carpet fashion, no award show does it better than the Academy Awards.

As we all luxuriate and glory in all the beautiful red-carpet looks from some of our favorite actresses and female celebrities, little coverage is given to what some male celebs are wearing at the Oscar’s red carpet.

In this age of an expanded perspective on masculinity, Fashion Reverie has selected some great red-carpet looks from the 95^th Academy Awards. Some of these looks are rather traditional, while some are pushing the proverbial fashion envelope. Enjoy!!

Austin Butler

Though Butler didn’t win Best Actor for his star turn in the musical biopic “Elvis.” But maybe winning the Oscar was not such a huge loss for Butler. Earlier in awards season, he won a Golden Globe and a BAFTA award for Best Actor.

At any rate, Butler was a winner on the Academy Awards red carpet in a classic, double-breasted, black Saint Laurent tuxedo, Now, this is a good look!!

Samuel L. Jackson

At this year’s Academy Award Samuel L. Jackson was a testament that style and charm don’t have to diminish as you get older.

This 1994 Academy Award nominee and 2021 Academy Honorary Award winter was sharp as a tack in Giorgio Armani tuxedo with silver jacket.

Harry Shum Jr.

There was a particular concentration on expanding the perspective on what is appropriate for male celebrities on the red carpet. And Harry Shum Jr. aptly represented this modern perspective by donning an Adeam tuxedo with blue piping on the white jacket, accessorized with an Obi belt. And the Christian Louboutin men’s cocktail pumps finished off his look. The perfect look for an Academy Award winner.

Paul Mescal

Though Mescal did not take a lot of risk with this Gucci white jacket tuxedo look, the cuffed flared black slacks did harken back to the 70s. Can anyone say, “Staying Alive”?

Lenny Kravitz

Kravitz is always expected to show up on the red carpet in something avant-garde or non-traditional. And at the 95^th Academy Awards, Kravitz did not disappoint.

Kravitz’s 70s-inspired Saint Laurent rocker look says it all. Sexy in your 50s, always pushing the envelope, and knowing what works best for you, is all summed up in this black-on-black red-carpet look with combined blouson sash.

Dwayne Johnson

A big, muscular dude like ‘The Rock’ is not expected to push the proverbial fashion envelope; however, Dwayne Johnson did. And body did he!!

Masculine enough to pull on a pale pink tuxedo. Johnson was pretty in pink and as handsome as ever in this Dolce & Gabbana tuxedo with black bowtie.

Though he still looked a bit blocky in this ensemble, who cares its Dwayne Johnson. Now other big guys can follow suit.

Greg Tarzan Davis

“Top Gun: Maverick’s” Greg Tarzan Davis brought a look to the red carpet that was both now and next. Davis really brought in an all-black Givenchy ensemble.

Ram Charan

Ram Charan proved how you can hold on to your heritage and still look fashion forward. Charan rocked the 95^th Academy Awards in a custom-made Maison Shantanu and Nikhil black ensemble that included a black South Asian durga skirt.

Glamour and Surprise from the 2023 Golden Globes

January 12, 2023 by admin Leave a Comment

The 80th Golden Globe Awards celebrates the best in film and television chosen by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. After a one-year pause receiving criticism for the lack of diversity, it appears the Hollywood Foreign Press has been forgiven for their oversight with a bevy of Tinseltown A-listers making appearances on the Golden Globe red carpet. Overall, it was a fun night for all. The only exception of the evening was some not- so-well-received jokes by the host, comedian Jerrod Carmichael. However, the red carpet was safe and delightful, so here are some Fashion Reverie’s favorite looks.

Jamie Lee Curtis

What a perfect look!! We love a good cape especially for this Hollywood superhero. She wore a black jumpsuit and laced cape by Valentino. This look was effortless, simple yet impactful.

Kaley Cuoco

This soon to be mom looked amazing in this lilac Vera Wang with jeweled straps. Kaley was radiant and happy!!

Julia Garner

This is a dreamy look in a Barbiecore covered in sparkly crystals paired by De Beers jewelry! In Fashion Reverie’s opinion, Julia looks like a glamorous prima ballerina.

Billy Porter

Is it possible that Billy Porter would never make the Best Dressed List? Of course, not!! This velvet, double-breasted gown with satin details is a great way to kick off the New Year and the awards season.

Michelle Williams

Michelle Williams looked stunning in as Gucci gown covered in ruffles paired with Tiffany & Co. jewelry. She looks angelic.

If Fashion Reverie had to pick out a single best look it would be this inspired bow-like gown by Balmain. This garment moved with Michaela and looked mesmerizing from any angle.

Claire Danes

The Giambattista Valli dress featured the designer’s signature bow fully covered in embroidery. Fashion Reverie predicts that this gown could end up in a museum.

Style Icons that Will Continue to Influence in 2023

January 8, 2023 by admin Leave a Comment

It is still the beginning of the year, so there’s plenty of time to think about getting your fashion game forward. Of course, each season is different and each year we change and so does our style. However, certain celebrities ALWAYS remain iconic when it comes to fashion. Let’s look for inspiration from those that lead 2022 as style icons. Here are some of Fashion Reverie’s favorites in 2022.

Images courtesy of harpersbazaar.com and people.com

Lady Gaga

She is like a chameleon. Gaga changes her style according to her growth or in this case according to her role. The controversial film “House of Gucci” was great for her style. It gave Lady Gaga that old Hollywood glamour which she sometimes lacked in past years!! We love it!!

Images courtesy of redditt.com

Rihanna

Fashion Reverie loved her pregnancy looks; so innovative, glorious, and chic. This new mom continued pushing best looks forward even post pregnancy. Not a surprise for Rihanna whom we always considered a style icon.

Chloe Sevigny

Chloe always looks effortlessly perfectly put together. Whether on the red carpet or strolling around downtown NY, Chloe keeps setting those trends.

Mariska Hargitay

Mariska Hargitay’s 2022 red carpet season was on fire. She seemed very comfortable in her body, consistently experimenting with some new looks while mingling with the elite of the fashion world.

Images courtesy of tmz.com and people.com

Kim Kardashian

Well, the reality star and entrepreneur may have crossed some boundaries with her 2022 Met Gala appearance in none other than Marilyn Monroe dress, causing lots of commotion; with all the wagging tongues, “breaking the internet.” For that controversy, Kim K made a lot of best dressed lists. Since breaking some rules is one of the things that fashion is about, Kim K easily fits on our list.

Harry Styles

He is the epitome of what the world wants and needs these days. Styles is always sharp and stylish, yet not afraid of his feminine side. It is something not just any guy can pull off and Harry sure is an inspiration for gender fluid fashion.

Image courtesy of popsugar.com

J Lo

Newlywed Ms. Affleck probably wore most wedding dresses and bridal looks than any other celebrity last year. We of course have to blame her movie roles for that, but J Lo wore the plethora of wedding garments with the same passion as she wears everything.

Images courtesy of glamour.com

Sarah Jessica Parker

After tons of controversy about her grey hair, this style icon stood up against age shaming and pulled off some impressive looks. Which is no surprise since SJP has that signature NYC look in her DNA.

Image courtesy of tumbler.com

Lenny Kravitz

This list would not be complete without the addition of Lenny Kravitz. Since his ascent in music in the late 80s, Kravitz has been the epitome of style for those guys who are not afraid to mix vintage fashion with in-your-face sexy fashion that shows off a very fit bod.

Kravitz sense has evolved over the years, from his rock n’ roll sexy fashion vibe to the more luxury European style that he now dons. And you cannot his recent award as the CFDA’s ” Fashion Icon of the Year.”

December 7, 2022 by admin Leave a Comment

Before we all get too busy with the holidays, let’s enjoy another awards show with our favorite celebrities. It has been a great year when it comes to red carpets and these awards shows and the 2022 People Choice Awards with its purple carpet is the cherry on top! Held in Barker Hangar in Santa Monica most fashionable stars came out to play. Here are some of our favorite looks!!

Carrie Underwood

Carrie Underwood sparkled in a sparkly suit by Any Old Iron. This is a really cool and comfortable look. Perfect for this time of the year and definitely a statement. Carrie looks very confident. Much bigger compliment than if her makeup was perfect, even though it was for this look.

Image courtesy Michael Buckner/Getty

Laverne Cox

Laverne Cox wore a Collina Strada gown. What is so great about this flattering gown is the color and the print. Totally unexpected for a ball gown-like shaped skirt. Everything else was minimal except for the statement necklace. Fashion Reverie feels that opera gloves would add to this look much more.

Image courtesy of Chris Polk/Getty

Lizzo

Lizzo is always having fun with her looks. Lizzo always opts for unique red-carpet looks. This time it is an off-the-shoulder Alexander McQueen gown. Fashion Reverie loves these colors and the print. It is also very flattering for her figure. And don’t think we did not see those great matching booties.

Ellen Pompeo

Ellen Pompeo wore a metallic, multicolored jumpsuit with cutouts. It was a happy sort of look and a great fit for her. Jumpsuits are always a great idea, but only if you find one that makes a fashion statement like Ellen Pompeo made.

Erin Lim

“E!” tv host looked very chic in a crop top gown with suspenders. We have seen similar looks before, but she just looks flawless in Jacquemus. Fashion Reverie loves her gold purse and natural make up!

Nahuane Drumond

Embrace those curves girl! Nahuane opted for a figure-hugging dress by the Syndical Chamber. I guess we are noticing a necklace trend happening here and we love her statement choker paired with shoes.

Celebrity Fall Style 2022

November 10, 2022 by admin Leave a Comment

In case you haven’t noticed, we are solidly in the fall season. As we are all trying to get our fall wardrobe together, sometimes we get inspired by our favorite celebrities when it comes to updating our closet. Some celebs really know how to up their style game when the season changes. Fashion Reverie picked the best looks by celebrities we love to watch.

Image Gotham | GC Images

Gigi Hadid

This is an epic look! Of course, the green shades really add to this look, but it is very chic and show stopping. Blazer, button-up, and wool slack combo is the definition of fall style And Gigi nailed it!

Anne Hathaway

Anne at Michael Kors’ fashion show and showed us that even a traditional fall look does wonders. The turtleneck, and it is a dramatic one, paired with a great leather coat even in brown and black combination looks very Autumnal. It is obvious, that Hathaway pick up some fashion tricks from “The Devil Wear Prada”

Shay Mitchell

A trench coat is a must during the fall season. Shay Mitchell left a great impression on New York City streets by pairing this coat with black pants and pointed shoes. The light color cap is a surprise, yet it works.

Kate Moss

There is no fall season without at least one great blazer. It doesn’t matter how you style it, a great fall blazer always adds sharpness to any combination. Kate Moss is a master at giving us chic, elevated looks. Find a well-tailored blazer, and you are set for the next few seasons.

Kendall Jenner

How can “basics” look so good? Well, Kendall is a supermodel, after all. That shouldn’t stop us from feeling equally comfortable, literally, in a pair of mules and a little crop top. Put on those shades and make it cool.

Jennifer Lopez

Well, she looks great during any season and J.Lo brings new trends to the fore. In this fashion moment, big crossbody messenger bags are having a return moment. Shorts, white button-ups and sneakers is a look perfect for transitioning from one season to another.
