Black seems to be her go to color for city  strolls, she is often seen in monochrome  looks. Also she allows her skin to be free, no makeup, letting her natural glow be the highlight of the day. Her love for darker shades goes beyond her outfit to her shoes and bags. But that doesn’t mean she doesn’t wear coloured entirely, she has been spotted in pink sneakers adding a touch of colour to her look.

Irina embraces simplicity on the streets. Jackets, coats, minimal jewelry, and her hair is either running down her shoulders or tied neatly to complete her looks. Her shoes tell the story, boss vibes with pointed heel boots, cool girl feel with sneakers, and flats for a more understated look. And that’s the beauty of fashion. Your dressing should tell something about you.

On November 17, 2025, Costume Institute curator Andrew Bolton and former Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour announced the theme of the 2026 exhibition, as “Costume Art.” According to Bolton, the exhibition is inspired by “the centrality of the dressed body in the museum’s vast collection.” The 2026 Met Gala theme is focused on how central the human body is to the museum’s extensive fashion collection. The show will open the Met’s new permanent wing, and it’s designed to place fashion and art side by side.
