Tessa Thompson, Taylor Hill, Irina Shayk and More of the Week’s Best Dressed Stars
These days, it isn’t enough to be elegant; you’ve got to give the fans on Instagram and Twitter something to talk about….



Nothing says 2020 more than a virtual press appearance. Health concerns over live events have caused celebrities to pivot towards home promotion for their latest projects by participating in live-streamed interviews, engaging with fans on social media, and even erecting step and repeat backdrops in their living room. When an appearance lives online, old school ideas about red carpet dressing get thrown out the browser window. It isn’t enough to be elegant, you’ve got to give the fans on Instagram and Twitter something to talk about.
Last week, no one pulled off the concept better than Tessa Thompson, who had multiple appointments on her schedule tied to the release of her Amazon Prime romantic drama, Sylvie’s Love. Each outfit Thompson wore was interesting, but the actor was at her eclectic best in a leather look from Marine Serre’s fall/winter 2020 collection. Daring and pattern heavy, the piece reflected Thompson’s fearless take on fashion while offering an alternate view on how to wear Serre’s now-ubiquitous crescent logo.
If ever a premiere demanded a party, it was this weekend’s debut of The Crown’s fourth season. The cast celebrated virtually, with each actor checking in from their respective home and dressing up for the occasion. For Emma Corrin, who makes her debut as Lady Diana Spencer in the newly released episodes, a plain ol’ red carpet dress wouldn’t do. Instead, the rising star opted for custom Miu Miu. In a one-of-a-kind Miuccia Prada-approved piece, Corrin continued her streak of unorthodox fashion by wearing pale blue tartan head to toe. A statement look that managed to exude fun as Corrin logged onto the event from her laptop, a prime example of meme-worthy style.
Even when celebrities ventured outdoors, the clothes played to online aesthetics. Is there an outfit more Instagram appropriate than Irina Shayk’s velour tracksuit and mini-purse combo? Likewise, when Taylor Hill showed up at the CMA Awards looking like a retro supermodel in double-breasted Versace suiting, or Elsa Hosk took to the streets of Manhattan in Prada combat boots and Courtney Love-esque lace babydoll, it was pure 90s nostalgia destined to be reblogged.

Keke Palmer Saves The Day At Tina Knowles’ Book Event

In a scene that felt like something straight out of a movie, Keke Palmer became the evening’s hero at Tina Knowles’ book event in Los Angeles this past weekend. Just as Knowles was about to share insights from her new memoir, “Matriarch,” her strapless gown unexpectedly started slipping down. This moment could have turned awkward very quickly, but thanks to Palmer’s quick thinking and sense of humor, it became one of the night’s most memorable moments. As everyone held their breath, Palmer sprang into action, stepping in to help Knowles while keeping her calm.
A video that’s now trending on TikTok captures this incredible moment, showing Palmer supporting Knowles and catching her dress just in time. With the crowd still in shock, Palmer lightened the mood with a funny comment that turned their gasps into laughter. She joked, “They were acting like it was a whole murder show!” before referring to the teleprompter as if it were demanding help. This incident showcased Palmer’s natural talent for handling tricky situations with grace and humor. Knowles, ever so elegant, adjusted her gown and smiled, showing why she’s known as a fashion icon.

After the mishap, Palmer expertly shifted the focus back to the book, quipping, “They was gonna give me a heart attack,” and then seamlessly transitioned back to discussing “Matriarch.” Her blend of care for Knowles and comedic timing saved the day. This was about fixing a wardrobe malfunction and was a shining example of how to handle unexpected moments with laughter and warmth. In an industry where things often go wrong, Keke Palmer proved that sometimes, a little kindness and quick thinking can turn a potential disaster into a highlight that everyone remembers.

Cardi B’s $60K Birkin Bag Gets The ‘Mommy Treatment’ As Daughter Unleashes Her Creativity

In a moment of relatable frustration, Cardi B took to Instagram to share a funny yet surprising story about her expensive $60,000 Birkin bag, one of her favorite items from her luxury collection. Known for her bold personality and honest social media posts, Cardi revealed that one of her daughters had turned the fancy purse into a makeshift canvas, drawing a heart on it without permission. “Look what my daughter did to my purse,” Cardi said dramatically in her Instagram Story, showing off the iconic bag to her followers. “I literally spent $60,000 on this purse,” she exclaimed, still amazed by the unexpected ‘artwork’ from her little girl.
Although she was frustrated, the mom of three tried to take it all in stride, at least for the moment. Cardi values her hard-earned luxury items, especially her growing collection of high end bags. However, as any parent knows, kids have a skill for creating chaos even in the most cherished parts of life. For Cardi, that chaos includes her high-priced accessories. The post quickly gained attention online, with fans sympathizing with Cardi’s situation. Many found humor in the irony of the event, while others offered support, pointing out that such moments are just part of the unpredictable journey of parenthood. Cardi has previously emphasized that family is her top priority, even if it means dealing with some messiness.

But Cardi’s frustration didn’t stop there. She later took to Twitter to respond to comments made by Kanye West regarding her staying power in the spotlight. While she didn’t mention him directly, her tweet, “7 years 1 album… STILL being a topic and STILL being asked about my music!!!” sent a clear message. She confidently asserted her spot in the entertainment world, clarifying that her fans, known as “The Brim,” are not going anywhere. In the end, whether it’s a damaged Birkin bag or dealing with critics, Cardi B repeatedly shows that she remains unfazed by the ups and downs of fame, always staying true to herself and her family.
