Train travel is timeless. So was Simone Ashley’s velvet stunner of a dress. The Devil Wears Prada 2 star was one of several celebrity guests aboard the Belmond British Pullman luxury train on May 9, to celebrate the new private dining car, Celia. To fit the glamorous vintage aesthetic, Ashley opted for a textured gold velvet dress with an asymmetrical neckline from Donna Karan’s fall 2001 collection.

She paired the dress with dramatic gold chandelier earrings that just brushed her shoulders. Over top, Ashley wore a shaggy boho coat in a charcoal and white pattern with a fluffy collar and cuffs. She left her hair down in beachy waves and wore smokey eyeliner with a nude lip.

As for the matter of this luxury dinning car, Celia was imagined by Baz Luhrmann and his wife and creative partner Catherine Martin. The British Pullman is composed of restored 1920s and 1930s carriages, maintaining classic Art Deco interiors. It runs seasonally, taking guests on excursions to Oxford, Canterbury, and Bath. This is not the train’s first collaboration with a filmmaker. The British Pullman also features the Cygnus carriage, which was designed by Wes Anderson.

Guests for the special night boarded at London Victoria station for a champagne reception. They then enjoyed a three-course menu, music, and cocktails, followed by an after-party at Mark’s Club.

The big event was co-hosted by Anna Wintour, and also attended by Roger Federer, Tom Ford, Stella McCartney, Alexa Chung, Emma Corrin, Mirka Federer, Anna Shaffer, Harry Lambert, Jonathan Yeo, Francesca Hayward, Valene Kane, Julia Hobbs, Tish Weinstock, and Cesar Corrales.

Ashley has been lending her sparkle to red carpet events the past few months, as The Devil Wears Prada 2 has rolled out across Europe and the U.S. But her look at the Met Gala on May 4 was especially jaw dropping. The star wore a draped chain gown from Stella McCartney.

She accessorized with diamond earrings and bracelets from De Beers and a pair of silver Stuart Weitzman heels. In an interview with Vogue UK earlier this year, she shared, “The older I get, the more confident I feel. I’m loving a ’90s vibe at the moment—it makes me feel so chic.”

Rihanna and A$AP Rocky are still making a fashion splash in New York a week after the 2026 Met Gala. This time, they modeled their coordinated couple’s look for Mother’s Day, enjoying a dinner at Italian restaurant Cucina Alba, per TMZ.

The Fenty Beauty founder was almost entirely in black, with a buttoned blazer over a lace bustier and a loose pair of wide-legged black pants. Her accessories added a touch of color and texture, with white and gray snakeskin pumps, a small beige Chanel purse on gold hardware, and a large burgundy handbag. She had on a gold pendant, gold chain, and oversized red-tinted sunglasses.

Not to be outdone, Rocky wore a red-lined suede trench with red oval sunglasses. Underneath, the edges of a black button-down shirt could be seen at the cuffs. He wore the statement coat with denim jeans, black boots, and a brown leather handbag.

For the Met Gala last Monday, Rihanna wore a sparkling silver custom Maison Margiela gown with custom Jennifer Behr metallic curls, celebrating the “Fashion Is Art” theme. The rapper wore a pink Chanel suit with black piping.

Rocky and Rihanna share three children, RZA Athelston Mayers born in May 2022, , Riot Rose Mayers welcomed in August 2023, and their youngest, Rocki Irish Mayers, who arrive only eight months ago in September 2025. The couple actually announced their third pregnancy at the 2025 Met Gala one year ago.

Not even a year old yet, little Rocki recently made her magazine debut on the cover of W in a costume couture Dior diaper.

“She has changed a lot because she became a mother in that time span, and that certainly changes you,” Rocky told the magazine about how his partner has changed since they first met. “But this woman has always been magic.”

After music and Callum Turner, Dua Lipa’s big love is literature. In London over the weekend, she celebrated the book world in a dress that decidedly belonged to the romance fantasy genre. The diaphanous white tulle frock had a halter neckline and pleated bubble skirt. The fabric was covered in gold polka dots, adding some sparkle to her layers as she took the stag to open the ceremony for the 10th anniversary of the International Booker Prize, which honors the English translation of novels from across the world.

She wore her long dark hair down and straight and accessorized with a diamond snake bracelet and several gold rings. The pop star went for a more natural makeup palette with a coral pink lip and subtle white eye shadow.

@dualipa

Lipa shared photos from the night on Instagram to model her outfit and her presence at the podium, writing, “Last night I did the introduction speech at the 10th anniversary of the International Booker Prize. An honour to speak about books and translated fiction, something I hold very dear to my heart in front [sic] of writers, translators, judges and book lovers. Thank you for having me @thebookerprizes.”

Lipa’s love of books is well known. She founded the Service95 Book Club and was named the curator for the upcoming Southbank Centre’s 2026 London Literature Festival just last month. She’s also attended the Booker Prize before, giving a keynote speech in 2022.

“Reading is a passion that has taken many forms for me,” Lipa said at the time. “Like countless other London school children, my early obsessions included Roald Dahl and Malorie Blackman, both of whom gave me little pearls of wisdom that still guide me today.”

She added, “Today, touring commitments take me all over the globe and life is often hectic. Sometimes, just to survive, I need to adopt a tough exterior. And at these times, it is books that soften me.”

Harry Styles and Zoë Kravitz are reportedly engaged. On April 27, People confirmed the rumors, saying they’d shared the news with “a small circle” and were showing off the ring to friends.

On Monday, April 27, Kravitz was seen in New York City wearing the impressive oval rock on a gold band as she casually strolled down the street. The Batman actress was in a long-sleeve gray shirt and a flowing black skirt, accessorizing with a butter yellow tote, some pendant necklaces, and a baseball cap reading “Boy Next Door.”

The newly affianced couple has been fairly private about their relationship, aside from being spotted in Italy more often than the Trevi Fountain. Here’s what we know about their relationship and engagement so far.

How long have Harry Styles and Zoë Kravitz been dating?

Rumors that Styles and Kravitz were dating started swirling in August 2025 when they were seen walking arm-in-arm in Rome in a TikTok posted by a fan account.

The couple was seen in Italy multiple times that summer, as well as London and New York. In September, Styles reportedly met the actress and director’s rock star dad, Lenny Kravitz. A source told People, “Over the weekend, Harry even met up with Zoë’s dad over lunch. Everyone looked like they had a great time. She’s also been introducing Harry to friends. This feels more than casual.”

They were still going strong as the new year commenced. Styles announced his Together, Together Tour in January, and another source claimed Kravitz was planning to travel with him.

“They both have busy schedules that don’t always line up,” a source said. “When it makes sense, she may join him on tour.”

A second source added, “They seem very serious and focused on prioritizing time together. They also seem to have created a life together that they both genuinely enjoy.”

What have they said about their relationship?

Neither Kravitz nor Styles has commented on their relationship publicly.

When did they get engaged?

Speculation about an engagement began on April 21 when photos of Styles and Kravitz sharing a kiss in London were published by The Sun. A ring was visible on her left hand. The news was confirmed by People on April 27.

What kind of engagement ring does Zoë Kravitz have?

In an interview with the Daily Mail, a diamond expert speculated, “Zoe’s ring looks to be a ten-carat oval-shaped diamond set in yellow gold. It was probably custom-made and costs around $1 million. It is bezel set, which is popular these days.” Other experts have speculated that it could be between $300K-$600K. Kravitz has a longstanding relationship with the jeweler Jessica McCormack and serves as an ambassador for the brand. However, it has not been confirmed that McCormack designed the ring.

Has Zoë Kravitz been engaged before?

Kravitz was married to actor Karl Glusman for two years, from 2019 to 2021. She began dating actor Channing Tatum soon after, when they worked together on her directorial debut, Blink Twice. The former couple became engaged in October of 2023, but split a year later.

“There was no dramatic falling out between Channing and Zoë,” an insider told Page Six at the time. “They really just grew apart and decided it was best for them to go their separate ways.”

Has Harry Styles been engaged before?

Styles has never been publicly engaged, though he has had some high-profile relationships. Most recently, he was dating actress Taylor Russell. The pair split in 2024. Before Russell, he was involved with Olivia Wilde for two years. Styles has also been linked to Taylor Swift, Kendall Jenner, Emily Ratajkowski, and Camille Rowe.

Nicole Kidman brought back the ’90s with just a few accessories and a surprise backless moment on the Chanel Cruise in Biarritz, France, on Tuesday. The Practical Magic 2 star wore a calve-length and long-sleeve black dress that could have been simple on someone else. Not Kidman.

The high neckline dipped down behind her in a cowl loop, with a feather embellishment hanging from a chain and framed between her shoulder blades. She wore her hair up with some luxurious curtain bangs, a pale blue Chanel purse with gold hardware, diamond earrings, and a pair of black slingbacks.

Though, it was Kidman’s ovular-sunglasses that really added a ’90s touch. Kidman is actually quite familiar with these particular frames. After all, she wore them in the brand’s recent eyewear campaign (she co-starred in the spread with Lily-Rose Depp, Pedro Pascal, and Ayo Edebiri).

Earlier this month, Kidman revealed a bit more about her personal life, namely her relationship with her youngest daughters, Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret, who she shares with ex-husband Keith Urban. In a conversation with Hoda Kotb at HISTORYTalks in Philadelphia on April 18, the actress said, “Both my daughters will kill me for saying this, but I’m like, ‘You need to hug [me] for two minutes a day.’”

She added, “It releases certain chemicals in the body and everyone needs to be hugged for about two minutes a day. Did you know that?”

Kidman and her girls share a sense of fashion. In a January 2025 interview with W Magazine, she was asked if she’s saved any of her iconic red carpet looks for them to wear someday.

“I’ve saved all the red carpet dresses,” Kidman explained. “I have them all beautifully boxed. They’re museum pieces. They raid my wardrobe all the time. I’m like, ‘Okay, what’s mine is yours.’ But I don’t raid their closet, even though I’m like, ‘Oh, that’s cute.’ But I’m not allowed to take anything. It’s a one-way exchange.”

Amal and George Clooney attended the 51st Chaplin Award Gala at Alice Tully Hall on Monday night and, as usual, the human rights lawyer was the sparkling stone to the actor’s more austere setting.

Wearing a rich magenta jewel toned mini dress from Balenciaga with a bubble bodice and short train, Amal added contrast with gold pumps and a matching clutch. Her hair was swept back in a bouncing pony tail and she wore dangling gold chain earrings. George was in a classic black suit with a bowtie. The couple held hands as they arrived.

The event was in honor of George himself for his “significant contributions to the art of cinema,” according to the Lincoln Center website. Speaking with People on the red carpet, George admitted that while he’s certainly used to attention, an entire gala in his honor was “wild” and “a little embarrassing.”

Asked how he prepared, George quipped, “You don’t, you drink,” adding, “I’m gonna have to start drinking soon.”

Amal and George share two children, twins Ella and Alexander. The star shared that he doesn’t often go through his old filmography anymore, but the kids have encouraged him to make one exception.

“It’s a weird thing. As you get older, it’s hard to watch movies when you were younger because you’re like, holy shit, that doesn't even look like me anymore,” he admitted. “You know, I’m watching because I’ve got 8 year olds, I’m watching Fantastic Mr. Fox, which is a little easier because it’s not really me, it’s just my boys. And that’s kind of fun because the kids are slowly figuring out what I do for a living.”

Anna Hathaway got all dressed up for work in a tweed skirt suit with a twist. The Devil Wears Prada 2 star continued her press tour for the upcoming film with an appearance on Good Morning America. Her early morning interview ensemble included a checkered blazer and calve-length skirt. The look was cinched at the waist with a thick black belt featuring a gold medallion buckle. Underneath, she had on a black turtleneck, sheer stockings, and a pair of pointed-toe heels.

From one blazer pocket, a waterfall of fabric fell down the actress’s hip, elevating office-wear into fashion. She accessorized with a gold ring, rose-tinted sunglasses, and wore her hair in loose waves.

During her interview, Hathaway reflected on working with Meryl Streep again, 20 years after the original film was produced. Streep plays the aloof and intimidating Miranda Priestly, and Hathaway explained Streep remained distant on set for the sake of her character during The Devil Wears Prada.

“Meryl loves the hang, but she decided that she should kind of withdraw from the social aspect of making the [first] film so that way we would really spend time with Miranda,” Hathaway shared. “On this one, what was so great was that I finally got to work with Meryl Streep,” she added. “She was herself, the hang was impeccable, the vibes were great.”

She added, “You just go ‘Oh my God,I love you,’ and you have to do that but what I learned in 20 years is that you zip that up and you don’t show that.”

Finding her own character, Andy, was easy with some helpful tunes.

“The thing that got me back into it was the music,” she said. “I just listened to the music from the first one and all of the memories came back of who I was when I was 22, and how scared I was making [the movie].”

Rihanna headed to Mumbai this weekend to celebrate her beauty brand’s Fenty Ki Haveli pop-up. On Saturday, she modeled two looks, starting with a bright chartreuse Mugler set, a loose mock turtleneck top that tied off at her hip and a pleated leather skirt in the same shade. Making it monochromatic, the ANTI singer paired the pieces with matching slingbacks.

For extra sparkle, Rihanna wore jewelry from Mumbai designer Manish Malhotra, including dangling earrings and a hathphool (a traditional Indian hand harness). She left her hair down in a sleek wave and wore a dark red lip.

Later that evening, Rihanna changed into Alaïa, wearing a long-sleeve black dress made from semi-sheer fabric. It featured a textured crocodile skin panel across her torso that trailed down into the long skirt. She wore the ensemble with black open toe stilettos and swept her hair up into a loose bun, changing her red lipstick for a glossy brown.

Ahead of the big event, Rihanna shared her current POV on makeup with Vogue India.

“Women just want to be seen,” said the star. “It’s simple as that. We just want to be seen, we want to be known. We want to be heard. We want our visions to mean something. We want our ideas to mean something. We want our voice to have this sense of importance. We love the energy that we bring.”

She continued, “We love our contributions. But there’s so much more that women can do. What women can contribute. love when our ‘stupid ideas,’ you know, ‘stupid,’ come into perspective and they mean something. And they teach people a lot of things about our contributions to the world. This is a human thing. And I’ve noticed this more as a mom. Boys, girls, women, men—life is so crazy. It’s hard. You need support. You need community, you know?”

Beyoncé Celebrates 10 Years of 'Lemonade' With a Fashion Throwback

This week marked ten year’s since Lemonade was poured across the music landscape, and Beyoncé is in a celebratory mood. The star’s decade-old looks are still informing style, including hers. On Sunday night, Beyoncé posted a new carousel of photos in which she seems to be referencing herself.

The royal purple gown from Yves Saint Laurent’s spring 2026 collection made a splash on its own when it debuted on the Paris runways last year. Though, on Beyoncé it couldn’t help but recall the famous golden yellow dress from the famous “Hold Up” music video. Beyoncé posed with her perfect accessories: chunky black sunglasses, a spherical Cult Gaia bag, a silver pearl drop statement necklace, and a pair of burgundy slingback heels.

@beyonce

The photos were reportedly taken during an event to celebrate the album’s milestone anniversary. There were a few glimpses into the evening in the collection, including shots of the Renaissance singer checking her perfect reflection in the car with a purple mirror and a plate of sashimi topped with jalapeño slices. Spicy.

@beyonce

On April 23, she shared other pictures in honor of Lemonade. These were taken beachside, near a table set for a luxurious dinner. Beyoncé wore a beige long-sleeve jumpsuit with a brown leather belt, a flower crown, and gold hoop earrings. She posed with lemons and a full bottle of her SirDavis Whisky.

@beyonce

Hold up. Three lemons? Fans in the comments were quick to note the significance of the choice, namely that they’re hinting at the possibility of a new album on the horizon. It’s been four years since Beyoncé kicked of a reported album trilogy with Renaissance that continued with Cowboy Carter.So, it’s not unreasonable to think Act III is on the horizon.
