The Oscar winner wore a custom Armani Privé gown at the New York City event Tuesday night.

Her Armani Privé gown comes after several other high-fashion looks she’s worn throughout the “House of Gucci” press tour. She started off at the film’s London premiere wearing a purple draped dress from Gucci’s spring 2022 rtw collection, which debuted in the design house’s Love Parade on Hollywood Boulevard earlier this month. She paired the look with sheer, crystal-detailed opera gloves and sheer lace, thigh-high fishnets worn with black platform boots.

Naomi Osaka is now part of Victoria’s Secret.
The professional tennis player and four-time Grand Slam winner is the latest in a string of high-profile figures to join Victoria’s Secret’s VS Collective, an initiative that includes women from diverse backgrounds who share their stories by way of collaborations, business partnerships and cause-related campaigns.
“After learning and understanding about VS’s vision for the Collective, I was inspired to join these amazing women,” Osaka told WWD exclusively. “I remember going into [Victoria’s Secret] stores when I was a kid and wondering why none of the women on the wall looked like me. Now, as a collective, we can inspire the next generation from all different backgrounds, cultures and sizes. That represents such progress to me.”

Other members of the VS Collective include model and mental health advocate Hailey Bieber; actress and entrepreneur Priyanka Chopra; World Champion freestyle skier Eileen Gu; professional soccer player and LGBTQ activist Megan Rapinoe; plus-size model Paloma Elsesser, and transgender model Valentina Sampaio.

Following the deaths of 10 people at the Astroworld Festival, Travis Scott’s ties to sponsors and partners appear to be tenuous.
It was revealed this week that nine-year-old Ezra Blount, who was trampled at the Nov. 5 event in Houston, is the latest death from the festival. Hundreds were injured during Scott’s performance before an audience of 50,000 people, due to a crowd surge. During a press briefing last week, Houston Police chief Troy Finner noted that merchandise tents were “a big challenge. Very sought-after” merchandise sent some of the “kids rushing toward that, breaking down barriers.”
While the Houston Police Department is conducting a criminal investigation and dozens of lawsuits have been filed against Scott, Nike Inc. announced Tuesday that it has postponed the release of its latest sneaker collaboration with Scott.
A spokesperson for Scott and his Cactus Jack Foundation declined comment Tuesday afternoon.
Nike declined further comment Tuesday beyond the statement on its Snkrs app, which read: “Out of respect for everyone impacted by the tragic events at the Astroworld Festival, we are postponing the launch of the Air Max 1 x Cactus Jack.” Nike has had no further comment.
The sportswear giant and the “Astroworld” rapper are frequent collaborators and have

Lady Gaga never ceases to amaze when it comes to both red carpet and street style.
The singer-actress has been on a showstopping fashion tour throughout Europe and New York City while promoting her upcoming movie “House of Gucci,” directed by Ridley Scott. Lady Gaga has stepped out wearing pieces from some of the most iconic Italian fashion labels, including Valentino, Versace and Gucci, among others, with the help of her stylists Sandra Amador and Tom Eerebout.
The award-winning singer attended the film’s London premiere in a dramatic look from Gucci’s spring 2022 ready-to-wear collection, which debuted in its Love Parade on Hollywood Boulevard earlier this month. The collection itself, with its lavish gowns and suits, was inspired by Hollywood and costume design.

LONDON — It’s certainly been a strange year that started with strict global lockdowns and major vaccination campaigns happening all around the world. But it’s ending with the reopening of the world and the return of travel, group celebrations — and extravagant fashion.
Along the way, fashion industry dynamics have been shifting and it looks like smaller players are starting to become a more prominent part of the conversation. They’re becoming capable of moving the cultural needle — or simply going viral — without the same big budgets and advertising capabilities as the mega brands.
According to fashion shopping platform Lyst, which monitors online customer searches to identify trends, throughout 2021 customers were searching and shopping for up-and-coming brands, as much as they did for some of their more established peers.
“The pandemic had accelerated some changes in the brands ecosystem. The new trends cycle has created opportunities for smaller, independent brands, as new social media platforms favor authenticity and entertainment rather than polish and big budgets,” said Brenda Otero, the company’s cultural insights manager.
According to Lyst’s end-of-year report, there was an array of young names that have been garnering attention online throughout the year, with LVMH Prize winner Nensi Dojaka leading the way.
