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.

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 reality star was seen at the Marina Bay Street Circuit during the Formula One weekend, where Hamilton was competing for Ferrari. For the occasion, Kardashian went with a monochrome pink look.

When it comes to wearing unconventional shoes on the red carpet, Alexander Skarsgård is not afraid to try something different. The actor has made some interesting footwear choices over the years, and his latest appearance at the BFI London Film Festival on October 8 was no exception. He showed up in a pair of transparent shoes.

Designed by Saint Laurent for its Spring 2027 collection, the clear PVC shoes have a traditional lace-up Oxford shape, with a black sole and matching laces. He paired the unusual footwear with a metallic gold two-piece suit from the same fashion house.

Saint Laurent’s freelance design director of shoes, Corrado De Biase cheekily named the footwear O.Fan after OnlyFans, the popular subscription-based platform known for hosting adult content. “It was a joke between us to say, ‘I don’t understand why men are scared to show their feet,” he said in an interview with Women’s Wear Daily.

This obviously isn’t the first time Skarsgård has worn an unusual footwear to the red carpet. At the Sundance Film Festival in January, he wore studded Valentino Rockstud flip-flops with a trench coat, track jacket, tie and tailored trousers. He also wore thigh-high leather boots to the Cannes Film Festival in 2025. Speaking to W Magazine about his choice, he said, “It was my first time at Cannes and I was very excited about it. My character wears a lot of leather in the movie, so it just felt fitting to wear a little bit of leather on the carpet and to the premiere.”

Skarsgård was in London to promote Wicker, in which he plays a magical man made of wicker who marries a fisherwoman, played by Olivia Colman. The film is scheduled to arrive in select theaters on October 23.

It seems to be the season of denim for Zendaya. Just days after attending the Louis Vuitton Spring/Summer 2027 show in a pair of jeans that caught our attention, the actor was back in denim for a shopping trip in Paris. This time, she paired her light-wash jeans with a long black leather Prada coat and Maison Margiela Tabi wedge heels.

Zendaya was spotted shopping at Merci, the French concept store, on October 8, accompanied by her longtime assistant and close friend, Darnell Appling. She wore a white tank top with low-rise, light-wash jeans and a black leather coat from Prada’s Fall 1999 collection.

The long coat provided the main layer of the outfit, while the jeans kept the look casual. Zendaya wore the denim with exaggerated rolled cuffs, leaving her footwear visible rather than allowing the hems to fall over the shoes.

She chose black leather Maison Margiela Tabi wedge heels, recognisable by the fashion house’s signature split-toe design. The shoes also feature slingback straps and wedge heels, offering a distinctive alternative to conventional pumps. She finished the outfit with oval sunglasses and her short pixie haircut.
