Kim Kardashian Brings a 1986 Thierry Mugler Gown Back into Public View
Kim Kardashian turned to fashion history for the Kardashian-Jenner Christmas Eve celebration, arriving in an authenticated 1986 Thierry Mugler gown from the designer’s Hiver Russe collection. The appearance added another chapter to her long-standing engagement with archival couture, a direction she has pursued with increasing consistency in recent years.

The metallic silver gown dates back nearly four decades and reflects Mugler’s mid-1980s approach to form, structure, and theatrical tailoring. Designed with a strapless corseted bodice, the dress narrows through the waist before extending into a fitted, floor-length silhouette. Black textured detailing outlines the bodice and hem, a signature Mugler device from that period, reinforcing contrast and shape without ornament excess.

Originally presented during Mugler’s Fall/Winter 1986 runway, Hiver Russe explored exaggerated proportions and sculpted femininity, themes that defined the designer’s influence throughout the decade. Kardashian’s choice preserved the garment’s original construction and finish, a point noted across fashion coverage that identified the look as a true archive pull rather than a reproduction or reinterpretation.
The gown appeared during the family’s annual Christmas Eve event, a setting that has increasingly doubled as an informal platform for notable fashion appearances. In recent years, Kardashian has used similar moments to debut historically significant pieces, including works by Jean Paul Gaultier, Balenciaga, and previous Mugler designs, aligning her public image with fashion preservation and archival relevance.

By wearing an original 1986 Mugler, Kardashian continues to position vintage couture as a contemporary statement, one rooted in documentation, authorship, and legacy. The appearance shows her role as a high-profile custodian of fashion history, bringing archival garments into present-day cultural conversation without altering their original intent.
The 2026 Golden Globes after-parties offered a stage for stars to reinterpret their red-carpet glamour into more relaxed, yet equally clean evening looks. Jennifer Lopez closed the night in a crystal-embellished Tamara Ralph gown, while Teyana Taylor paired couture with street-inspired accents, Priyanka Chopra balanced corseted tailoring with sultry elegance, and Zoë Kravitz translated her red-carpet outfit into a remarkable mini dress. The celebrities also embraced hair and fashion transitions that allowed movement, texture, and ease without losing the meticulous styling that defined the awards.

Evening shapes shifted toward playful experimentation: metallic mini-dresses, sheer layering, and unexpected combinations of cut, texture, and shine carried the energy of the ceremony into late-night celebrations. Hair followed the same shift, with smooth waves, soft tendrils, sculpted updos, and glossy blowouts that moved naturally with each outfit change. The after-parties showed that post-ceremony styling could be relaxed yet carefully considered, maintaining a consistent and harmonious look throughout the night.
In short, the after-hours scene highlighted a balance between refined glamour and relaxed sophistication, with celebrities navigating the night in looks that were at once stylish, wearable, and faithful to the spirit of awards-season fashion.

The 83rd Annual Golden Globe Awards ceremony took place on Sunday night, January 11, at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles. Hosted by comedian Nikki Glaser for the second year in a row, the night celebrated the best in film and television. While the awards is the main focus of the event, the red carpet remained one of the interesting aspects of the night.

With Hollywood stars each bringing their own style to the red carpet, from sharp, structured pieces to contemporary fashion with exquisite finesse, the 2026 Golden Globes displayed variety of styles that portrayed not only the latest fashion trends but also the personal style signatures many celebrities are known for. Take for one, Teyana Taylor who always appears in a spectacular style, arrived in a black figure-hugging Schiaparelli gown with detailed cutouts and a ribbon of fabric flowing out from the back of the halter neckline of the dress to form a train.

In contrast, Selena Gomez opted for a classic Hollywood style with a black Chanel gown, decorated with over 200 flowers made from feathers and silk chiffon. Emily Blunt also kept her look deliberately minimal, stepping out in a custom white Louis Vuitton two-piece offering a calm counterpoint to the more dramatic looks on the carpet.

Elsewhere on the red carpet, sequins appeared in different forms, with Kylie Jenner choosing a silver sequined gown, complete with crystal straps that lay across her shoulders, while Miley Cyrus took a darker approach in a black long-sleeve sequined gown, with deep neckline and fanned, pleated pieces that stood above her shoulders.

Other stars appeared in sheer and see-through designs. Jennifer Lawrence went for a strategically layered see-through Givenchy gown, decorated with floral appliqués. She paired it with a satin shawl and gemstone detailings. Jennifer Lopez followed suit in figure-hugging sheer mermaid gown. The men also pushed style boundaries, with Coleman Domingo opting for a Valentino custom look, consisting of a black trousers with a button-up matching jacket designed with sparkling crystal pieces on one side. While Patrick Schwarzenegger gave the traditional tailoring a twist, wearing a suit with a bow tie and a gold accessory pinned to the lapel.

Gigi Hadid is known for experimenting with various hair colors while staying within familiar territory; honey blonde, platinum, and brunette. Now, she’s switching things up with her darkest hair color yet. Along with her hairstylist Dimitris Giannetos, the model styled a matte black bob, predicted to be among 2026’s trendy hairstyles.
The new hairstyle was revealed in an Instagram post shared by Giannetos on January 8. In the images, Hadid is seen wearing a jet-black bob or what the stylist called a “matte black mini bob”, with a silky, shiny finish. It appeared the look may have been created for a Maybelline shoot, it’s still unclear whether the change is permanent.

The bob had flipped-out ends and a deep side part, styled close to the face. Giannetos told Allure that he called the color “matte black” because it doesn’t have any red undertones. He described the look as chic, modern and new, noting that it can be worn tucked neatly behind the ears or with some pieces left to frame the face.

Hadid was last seen wearing her signature blonde shade in December, when she was photographed on the set of a Super Bowl commercial in New York City. The last time she switched her appearance was in early 2025, when she showed up with a silver-sheened bob at the Le Grand Dîner du Louvre event.

With Bella Hadid also changing her hair after years of dark brunette hair, it seems both sisters are embracing a new look. Known for sticking to particular beauty lanes, the siblings appear to be more open to experimenting this year. Whether permanent or not, Gigi’s matte black bob feels like a great way to start 2026.
