The Princess of Wales continued her suit streak as she stepped out for an engagement at Home-Start Oxford on October 9, wearing a monochrome olive-green suit by Victoria Beckham.

Princess Catherine visited Oxford, a charity organization that supports families with young children. She was there to meet families, volunteers and also to support her work with the Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood, a new animated film series meant to support social and emotional learning in kids. She also participated in a “stay and play” session with kids.

Her outfit was in tune with the season’s trend, as olive shades could be seen across fall 2025 palette. It consists of a fitted blazer jacket, matching top beneath it and high-waist trousers with extended pockets and flared legs. She paired the suit with a neutral shade pointed toe pumps from Ralph Lauren.

For accessories, she opted for drop earrings by Kiki McDonough and a gold necklace by Daniella Draper with her children’s initials ‘G’, ‘C’, and ‘L’ engraved on the pendant. She previously wore the necklace in 2023 when she visited HMP High Down. Her brunette hair was styled in loose waves with a neat side parting.

This wasn’t her first time wearing the olive-green VB suit, she debuted it at the British Fashion Council in London in May while presenting the Queen Elizabeth II Award for British Design to designer Patrick McDowell but the only difference then was that the suit was layered over a white shirt.

Monochrome dressing is often worn by the women of the royal family. The late Queen Elizabeth was known for her single-tone outfits, and recently, Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, embraced the same styling during Paris Fashion Week, opting for an all-white ensemble at Balenciaga’s show.

So it’s no wonder the Princess of Wales is no stranger to suited styling. Between this month and the last, she has been spotted in a Bell Freud suit on different occasions.

The New York City Ballet Fall Fashion Gala  marked the performance of choreographer Jamar Roberts’s latest work teamed “Foreseeable Future” held on October 8 at David H. Koch Theater at Lincoln Center. This year’s costumes were created by Iris van Herpen, and stars like Sarah Jessica Parker, Nicole Ari Parker and Julia Fox Julia Fox wore her designs.

Jessica hosted the event and she arrived in a custom Iris van Herpen gown. The design had Van’s signature sculptural details: a black gown with a set of large angel wings hanging at the edge of each shoulder. The black piece had a net like or open wave pattern, letting us see the white dress layered beneath it. From her hip, a satin skirt flowed all the way down which merged with the wings behind her.  She completed it with a chignon, black heels and pin earrings.

Styled by Van Herpen, the actress showed up in a dress the label called “Eclipse”. It was a black-and-white. The piece was made from hand-stitched white spheres with black outlines. Each sphere was cut in different sizes and placed on top one another to give a 3D effect. She paired it with yellow-green pointed heels.

Nicole’s take on Van’s design entails a red dramatic gown. The dress had a bold ruffled patterns on her shoulders with defined cutouts in the midsection before flowing into a segment of pleated fabrics that extended to the floor.

The designer arrived in a black-and-white structured dress. Web-like design could be seen close to the edge of the dress . Just like the pieces worn by Sarah Jessica Parker and Julia Fox, her look had that same sculptural, 3D effect. Her hair was kept in a smooth bun and she paired the dress with lace-up platform heels.

Other attendees present at the event were the likes of Olivia Palermo, Amy Sedaris, and Billy Porter. Each bringing their different style to the red carpet. The rest of the evening rounded off with a series of performances.

On Saturday, Paris Hilton delivered a bit of fashion history to Paris Fashion Week by wearing a pair of Vivienne Westwood platforms inspired by the brand’s renowned 1993 Super-Elevated designs. Built on a substantial block platform with a steeply arched sole, the shoes had the sculptural height and corseted lacing that once made Westwood’s Gillies a runway icon.

The mix of cream and ice-gray suede and leather in Hilton’s design lent her voluminous green gown a vintage silhouette, while the cutout panels, crisscross ties, and wraparound platform brought back the dramatic elevation that defined Westwood’s provocative legacy.

The drama didn’t end with her shoe, it was present in her feather-trimmed, lavender-and-green gown, which was made on a panniered skirt. A diamond collar, white gloves, and cat-eye glasses connected it to Westwood’s distinctive blend of punk edge and couture polish.

Throughout her career, Hilton, who has always favoured maximalist statements, has returned to Westwood’s style, from platform-heavy performance outfits to corseted shapes on the red carpet. Her return to the brand in Paris comes after a summer filled with equally daring shoe moments, such as Gianvito Rossi’s fitting suede boots at Tribeca and rhinestone Stuart Weitzman thigh-highs at WeHo Pride.

The reference point was clear. In 1993, Naomi Campbell’s iconic fall during Westwood’s runway show made the Super-Elevated Gillies a symbol of fashion bravery. Campbell later joked that the nine-inch heels “tested her balance and pride,” and Westwood famously described the stumble as “beautiful, like a gazelle.” The occasion helped to solidify the British designer’s reputation for challenging convention and reinventing femininity via danger.

Hilton’s public character has always combined self-parody and elegance, so the nod feels deliberate,  a link between two generations of women who mastered spectacle on their own terms. Whereas Campbell’s moment caught the danger of fashion, Hilton’s reinterpretation embraces its longevity, the notion that style history can be humorous, self-aware, and towering in every way.
