I never thought I'd say this, but I'm really getting to the point of summer in London where I'm done with sandals. Now that the blazing sun has baked London's parks dry and warm-weather breezes are whipping dust through the city streets, I just can't face wearing shoes that leave my feet exposed. So, for now at least, my sandals are heading to the back of my wardrobe, making room for the closed-toe styles I'd all but abandoned. First to make their comeback are, of course, my favourite Mary Janes.

Confirming they're just as suited to high-summer dressing as any strappy sandal, I spotted Margot Robbie in Paris styling a satin miniskirt with a sleek black pair. Also navigating life in a bustling city, her low-profile, closed-toe shoes delivered the lightness that summer styling calls for, without leaving her feet entirely at the mercy of the streets below.

For the past few months, I've fallen into the habit of pairing every skirt in my wardrobe with flip-flops or sandals. Margot, however, reminded me that Mary Janes are one of the chicest shoes you can wear with a skirt. With their preppy and polished energy, they lend a level of poise that few other flats can rival. Offering all the refinement of a closed-toe shoe without feeling heavy or overly covered, they're proving to be the elegant summer alternative I didn't know I needed.

So, with plenty of warm weather still ahead, consider swapping your sandals for this elevated style instead. Keep scrolling to shop the Mary Janes I'm loving right now.

In unprecedented news, London is currently facing a record-breaking heatwave, meaning that the city’s best-dressed are forgoing their tailored jeans and favourite ballet flats for something both figuratively and literally cool.

Indeed, for the past week, as stylish denizens come to grips with the scorching temperatures, pretty summer dresses, functional sandals and protective sunglasses have become the unofficial uniform.

But whilst the rest of us are seeking a reprieve in floaty minis or a dip at the Hampstead Heath ponds, Margot Robbie just eschewed everything we thought we knew about warm-weather dressing, arriving at a prestigious event in Mayfair wearing the least likely ensemble for the climate.

Whilst attending the unveiling of homeware brand RH’s new flagship space on Burlington Gardens, the actress denounced wearing anything too flouncy or breezy, instead opting for the sharp and architectural approach to dressing she’s come to adopt whenever she’s in town.

(As you may recall, she kick-started her love affair with precision tailoring when she stepped out in a Napoleon-era military jacket for the debut of the West End play, 1536, a little over a month ago.)

For the occasion, she wore polished culottes with black court shoes, confirming that when it comes to fashion, no amount of red warnings for extreme heat from the Met Office should get in the way of delivering a good look.

Still, as one of the most influential dressers around, it does ask the question of whether we’re all being a bit too rigid with our approach to heatwave dressing? One might argue that you could view the scorching temperatures as a way to get more experimental with your wardrobe, considering inventive new ways to incorporate polished shorts or structured staples into your ensembles, rather than just relying on a throw-on-and-go piece that does the heavy lifting for you.

To those people, I bid you all the best in your endeavours. Getting through this week is a matter of survival, then style. So whilst Margot might look a million times cooler in this all-black look than I do in my linen trousers and wafty tank tops, there’s no way I’d ever think about getting on the Tube wearing sleeves as long as hers.

Nevertheless, the option is there for when the temperature does eventually drop. (Which, knowing the United Kingdom weather pattern, is only a matter of days away.) Margot has often made culottes look their coolest, especially when she paired them with mesh shoes and a crew-neck tee from Australian brand Beare Park when touching down at the airport whilst on her Wuthering Heights press tour.

Now, she’s given us another reason to invest in them, especially if you’re after something both polished and minimal for a ritzy day out. Ahead, shop the best culottes currently available to shop. Who knows, you might even see yourself reaching for them before the weekend is over.

Though the rules of airport dressing might appear to be set in stone, there’s actually far more flexibility to these arbitrary conventions when it comes to travelling in summer. For starters, the adage of wearing your heaviest items of clothing on the plane becomes obsolete when the thickest fabric you might be wearing on your holiday is linen. More so, the concept of wearing anything that might contribute to the overall weight of your checked baggage seems redundant altogether, especially when your itinerary calls for frisky hemlines, balmy sandals and dreamy slips. So, the inevitable question remains then, what quantifies a reasonable summer airport outfit?

Look to the most tasteful people at any terminal, and you’ll realise they adhere to several cardinal rules when it comes to piecing together a functional and fashion-forward summer airport outfit. The paramount consideration for any flight will always be comfort, so relying on a foundation of well-established wardrobe staples will prove integral to feeling more put together when soaring 30,000 feet above the ground. A T-shirt is always a solid starting point as the crisp structure and neutral colour serve as a blank canvas for you to build a noteworthy ensemble around. Stovepipe jeans or silk-taffeta trousers will always prove useful, too, as they will provide structure and elegance, particularly when everyone else around you is passing through security in casual sweatpants and elasticated hems.

However, the most fundamental point of a sturdy and chic summer airport outfit is its ability to quickly assimilate into the stylings of the locals in whatever destination you’re visiting. Any discerning passenger knows little time should be wasted fussing about getting changed when you land, and that’s not even considering the fact that most hotel rooms aren’t ready these days until the late afternoon. This might sound hyperbolic, but a superb summer airport outfit will be one that’s stripped back to the bare necessities, allowing you to reconstruct a whole new silhouette by layering on that blissful oversized shirt you packed to wear by the pool or switching out your sturdy trainers for the functional flats you envisioned trotting around all trip. A look that allows you to hit the town running, if you will.

With summer firmly here, those plans for weekend getaways, mini city breaks or long sojourns a stone’s throw from some tranquil body of water are only inching closer, meaning that a visit to the airport is for certain. Still, there have already been quite a few notable summer airport outfits courtesy of the hardworking celebrity style set to inspire your own. As you’ll see, their attire follows this framework, proving that sophistication and practicality can be mutually exclusive, even if you’re at the departure gate. Talk about a tasteful takeoff…

6 Summer 2026 Airport Outfit Ideas to Replicate on Your Next Flight

1. Basque-Waist Dress + Ballet Flats + Doctor's Bag

Style Notes: Taking cues from the bygone days of glamorous arrivals looks, Daisy Edgar-Jones shows that comfort need not equate with track pants and a matching zip-up hoodie. This ensemble is perfect for flights that touch down at midday, as all you’ll need to do is quickly swipe on some lipliner, spritz yourself with some tuberose perfume and run a comb through your hair to be set for an afternoon filled with long lunches and casual strolls.

Shop the Look:

2. Quarter-Zip Knit + Baggy Jeans + Suede Bag

Style Notes: The label “basics” to describe something that’s a simplistic cornerstone of one’s wardrobe can often imply that that piece is inherently “boring”. But to the trained eye, an exact combination of sartorial fundamentals can actually seem like it’s just stepped off the runway or red carpet, as is the case for Jennie Kim, who wore the opening look of Chanel’s 2026 Métiers d'Art collection.

The silhouette itself was worn in the New York-set presentation by Indian supermodel-in-the-making Bhavitha Mandava and was actually inspired by the look she wore when she was scouted while standing on a subway platform in Brooklyn. (She later wore a Haute Couture iteration of the jeans and quarter-zip jumper to the Met Gala back in May.) So, the next time you reach for that tank top or pair of straight-leg jeans, remind yourself that there’s far more significance to these staples than meets the eye.

Shop the Look:

3. Oversized Long-Sleeve T-Shirt + Tailored Bermuda Shorts + Mesh Flats

Style Notes: The definition of off-duty, Margot Robbie seemed to stoke controversy when she landed at L.A.X wearing something more suitable to Melrose Avenue than the Tom Bradley International Terminal. However, as we’ve discussed at great length, the contrast between the street-forward mesh flats and tailored Bermuda shorts and her setting makes this such a compelling ensemble. Perhaps you’ll want to bring socks for when you’re going through the full-body scanner...

Shop the Look:

4. Opera Coat + Tank Dress + Top Handle Bag

Style Notes: The most refined amongst us will take any opportunity to dress up, which is exactly why Simone Ashley decided to channel her inner ‘90s fashion icon by arriving at the Nice Côte d'Azur airport in the spirit of Naomi Campbell arriving in Paris by private jet, her arms full of bespoke Louis Vuitton luggage. Because why shouldn’t your holiday outfits begin from the moment you leave the house, not the second you arrive at your destination?

Shop the Look:

5. Graphic T-Shirt + Capri Leggings + Peep-Toe Mules

Style Notes: Those with taste are acutely aware of how minute details can transform your entire look. Take French actress Adèle Exarchopoulos, for instance. In any other circumstance, her decision to wear capri leggings with a top emblazoned with the face of her Blue Is the Warmest Colour co-star, Léa Seydoux, could easily look like something one might wear to a Pilates class. But styling it with peep-toe mules, ‘90s-esque rimless glasses and a pendant choker necklace imbued it with that je ne sais quoi that’s just so coveted about Parisienne sensibilities.

Shop the Look:

6. Crew-Neck Jumper + Linen Trousers + Basket Bag

Style Notes: Travelling in the summer is also a test of endurance. That is to say, how many times can you style an item of clothing before you need a brief respite? Here, Pamela Anderson highlights that packing light doesn’t have to mean carelessly, showcasing that a pair of linen trousers can look as seamless at baggage reclaim as it does by the beach, especially when they’re styled with a balmy basket bag and brisk knit jumper.

Attention: this summer’s biggest jacket trend is finally breaking through. Moving away from the sea of samey blazers and predictable denim jackets, fashion’s latest outerwear obsession taps into a distinctly Y2K mood, bringing the military jacket firmly back into the spotlight.

While the '90s have largely dominated fashion trends this season, this early-2000s hero is quietly finding its footing again. After appearing on the runways for several seasons now, the trend is finally making its way into retailers—and, naturally, into the wardrobes of the celebrity style set, too.

This week, I spotted Bella Hadid taking an ultra-cropped military jacket for a spin, styling the dark, high-neck layer with a low-rise denim skirt, crafting a look that would have felt just as at home in 2006 as it did in 2026.

Then, Margot Robbie stepped out in London wearing a new-season military jacket by Alexander McQueen. With a slightly more modest cropped silhouette than Bella’s, Margot styled hers with low-rise tailored trousers and pointed-toe shoes, giving the throwback trend a smarter edge.

Adding structure to an outfit in a way few summer jacket trends can, I have a feeling the military jacket’s mainstream comeback is only just beginning. If you’re ready to get ahead of the curve, keep scrolling to shop the best military jackets to wear now.

Shop Military Jackets:

Long coats certainly have a place during the spring and summer. Now that it's mid-May, however, our focus at Who What Wear is shifting to lightweight jackets. We're looking to styles that can be intentionally layered over a warm-weather outfit rather than appearing like a mere afterthought. Hip-length leather bomber jackets, barn jackets, and technical styles are currently high on our radar, but we're also giving attention to cropped silhouettes. Surprisingly, cropped jackets are proving to be a highly coveted silhouette in 2026. When styled correctly—think low-rise trousers instead of high-waisted ones—they can look current, not dated. Margot Robbie's recent ensemble serves as a perfect example.

Spotted at the opening night of 1536 in London, Robbie wore a sophisticated low-rise-trouser outfit. Specifically, she sported a black-and-gold cropped military-style jacket, a black tank top, and low-rise patch-pocket pants. Completing the elegant look, Robbie and likely her stylist, Andrew Mukamal, opted for a black leather clutch and matching pointed-toe pumps.

Cropped jackets may not be the first style that comes to mind when a fashion person thinks of chic outerwear trends for spring and summer 2026, but if you have a favorite style in your closet or love the look and have been eyeing one online, follow Robbie's lead. Swapping your high-waisted jeans or trousers for a low-rise pair is a small but significant change that makes a cropped jacket look fresh and feel very 2026.

For those apprehensive about low-rise pants because of the potential discomfort of an exposed midriff, opt for a foundational piece like a tee or tank. Then, layer a structured, polished jacket on top to draw the eye up and away from the low waistline.

At this point, it can’t be a coincidence—every time she’s in New York, I spot Margot Robbie returning to the same chic outfit formula. Built around the jacket trend perfectly suited to the demands of early-spring dressing in the city, Margot layered an oversized black blazer over a simple tank top, creating the sleek foundation of her look.

Giving the tailoring a more relaxed feel, the actor styled the blazer with a pair of loose black jeans, worn low on the hips for a relaxed finish that felt perfectly in step with New York’s off-duty aesthetic. Then, tapping into one of the season’s most important shoe trends, Margot slipped into a pair of Chanel’s covetable two-tone heels, adding a polished edge to the otherwise pared-back ensemble.

With a Chanel bag tucked neatly under her arm, I spotted Margot rely on this styling formula not once, but twice during her stay in New York this week. Aside from swapping the colour of her tank top and changing up her bag, the actor stayed loyal to the winning combination throughout her trip.

At once polished and casual, as all the great New York outfits always are, I’m taking Margot’s repeat styling moment as inspiration for the rest of the season. If you are too, read on to discover and shop the best jeans, blazers and two-tone shoes below.

If there's one trend every fashion person is backing for summer 2026, it's two-tone shoes aka the footwear style made famous and currently viral by Chanel. Two-tone shoes, from flats to slingbacks, have been a staple of the French fashion house for decades, but this summer, they're on track to reach an entirely different level of fame and notoriety thanks to Chanel's creative director, Matthieu Blazy (formerly of Bottega Veneta). He came out strong with fresh takes on the shoe style in his debut collection during the spring/summer 2026 season and has continued to level them up every time his latest designs are revealed.

We're not the only ones who think so, either. Celebrities are just as obsessed with Chanel's two-tone footwear as we are, but they didn't have to wait in line at Chanel for a pair on S/S 26 drop day. That was just us. In fact, the chicest ones have been wearing their personal pairs all around town—at Chanel shows, yes, but also on strolls through Tribeca and even at the Met Gala, plus all the glitzy after-parties.

In the last handful of days, three prominent figures in film and music were seen wearing the buzzy summer shoe trend, starting with Gracie Abrams, who was spotted in Tribeca in one of the coolest street style looks of the year so far. The "I Love You, I'm Sorry" singer and Chanel ambassador wore a raglan T-shirt encouraging people to vote tucked into sleek pleated gray trousers. Adding to the outfit's appeal was an oversize leopard-print flap bag from the French house as well as black-and-white two-tone pumps from Blazy's debut collection. Shoes are often the last item to be added to an outfit and can therefore end up looking unintentional or not very thought-out, but with this shoe trend, that's never the case. They make the ensemble work, pulling everything together in a polished and cool package.

On Monday—the first Monday in May aka Met Gala day—two-tone shoes were on full display, showing up on the Van Gogh–inspired carpet on a handful of Chanel guests, including models Bhavitha Mandava and Awar Odhiang as well as Lily-Rose Depp, who paired her turquoise-and-black dipped-toe pumps with a 1920s-inspired cocktail-length dress in the same seaside shade. The entire look felt plucked from the set of Aquamarine, and the dress included hand-sewn paillettes made to look like butterflies strewn throughout its sheer silk silhouette.

Now, another Met Gala is over and done with, but celebs are still in New York City, coming down from the buzz and chaos of fashion's biggest night. One such A-lister is Margot Robbie, who was spotted downtown in Nolita wearing an elevated-casual outfit with—shocker—two-tone Chanel heels with a sharp square toe. She paired them with classic black jeans and a matching blazer, adding just a quilted flap bag with gold hardware to finish off the look. Unlike Depp's outfit, hers was pared back and simple, proving just how versatile two-tone shoes can be. They're impactful no matter how you style them—as up as the Met Gala's dress code calls for or as down as what you'd wear on any day of errands around Lower Manhattan. That's why they're the summer's number one shoe trend. They can do it all.

Margot Robbie has been a longtime Chanel ambassador. She officially became a partner of the French fashion house in 2018, so she has worn designs from Karl Lagerfeld and Virginie Viard for many red carpets, including the Met Gala. Though we've seen Robbie wear several designs by Matthieu Blazy since he took the helm of the brand last year, tonight marks her first Chanel look designed for the Met Gala by the creative director.

The golden draped lamé dress is designed with a cascade of ruffles along the back and embellished with feathers and flower petals. The intricate design includes 1080 embroidered elements and took 761 hours to make. Robbie's look was also styled with Chanel High Jewelry, including rings and a pair of chandelier earrings that tap into the heirloom-jewelry trend we've been seeing on the rise in 2026. Ahead, see Margot Robbie's custom Chanel look for the 2026 Met Gala.

If there's one celebrity I want to go on a night out with, it's Margot Robbie. No, I've never actually met her, but she seems so fun, and my delusional brain thinks we'd be best friends immediately. Plus, during pre-drinks when we're all getting ready, I'd love to have a nosey through her makeup bag. As someone who prefers a "no makeup" makeup look, with a glowy base and lots of cream blush, it's safe to say that Robbie is my beauty muse. Her makeup artist, the iconic Pati Dubroff, is always creating the most gorgeous, glowing looks, and I'm forever hunting down the exact products she's used on the star.

It's no secret that Robbie is a big fan of Chanel makeup, and who can blame her? However, over the years, she's also revealed some more affordable makeup staples in her collection, and I've been busy making notes on her (and Dubroff's) most-used products.

Below, I've rounded up the 9 makeup products I know I'd find in her everyday routine, and if I'm honest, I'm having a hard time convincing myself I don't need every single one. If you're looking to upgrade your makeup collection this spring and summer and want to recreate some of Margot's signature looks, I highly recommend you keep scrolling.

Forget black and brown heels for a moment. As we ease into the spring/summer months, I've spotted richer, wine-toned flats stepping in where classic black or brown heels once dominated. Making my case, Margot Robbie was out this week wearing perhaps the chicest interpretation of the trend yet. Stepping out in an early pair from Giorgio Armani’s autumn/winter 2026 collection—Margot's sleek burgundy flats elevated a her sleek, tailored look, just as much as any heel would have done. Dressed in head-to-toe Armani, she styled her look with grey tailored trousers, a tonal wool jacket, a high-neck blouse, and a fine black knit layered underneath. A dark burgundy belt looped around her hips, echoing the colour of her shoes for a tonal, sophisticated flare.

Whilst heels will always have their place, there’s something inherently compelling about flat shoes in this deeper neutral. Burgundy carries an inherent richness that feels just as polished, arguably more so in certain contexts, yet grounded in the ease of a flat silhouette.

Taking cues from Margot’s approach, tread on to shop the chicest burgundy flats to wear with tailoring, denim, and skirts this season.

If you've spent any amount of time in Los Angeles, you've probably noticed that its reputation is true: It really is a pilates, matcha, Erewhon-obsessed culture. And as a city's culture and go-to activities often dictate what people wear, the same goes for L.A. Translation: You're going to see a lot of leggings-and-sneakers outfits worn by its residents. Of course, there are different iterations on the outfit, and the one I see more often than not being worn by L.A.'s chicest It girls was just spotted on Margot Robbie and Kaia Gerber.

Both of the aforementioned it girls were photographed wearing the It-girl legging outfit formula in question: a sweatshirt, leggings, crew socks, and the trendy sunglasses and designer bag of their choosing. As for the sneakers, L.A. girls often forgo trendy styles when wearing leggings, instead opting for chunky athletic sneakers, usually by New Balance, Asics, Salomon, ALO, or Nike. The low-key outfit works for both workouts and errands and never looks dated or overly trendy.

If you've ever attended a college football game, especially in the South, you've probably made an observation or two about what the students wear on game days. As a native of Baton Rouge, Louisiana (Go Tigers!), and now a resident of a very college-dense part of North Carolina, I've been privy to the attire of the college students in attendance more than a few times. For many years, they've gravitated toward the same simple outfit combination: a casual minidress and mid-calf or knee-high Western boots

I don't know how or why this became the go-to game-day outfit, but I recognize the practicality. Football games are often hot—hence the minidress—and you're probably going to do a lot of walking between the car you arrived in, your tailgate spot, and the stadium, hence the walkable Western boots. But it's not an outfit combination that's exclusive to college football stadiums, as Margot Robbie just proved while heading into West Hollywood hot spot The Bird Streets Club on a very warm day in L.A. over the weekend.

Specifically, Robbie paired a strapless black knit dress by With Jéan with slouchy Western boots by Khaite. As for extras, Robbie carried a brown leather bomber jacket and her go-to bag as of late, the Chanel 25. All in all, she looked incredibly chic (as she always does), and the outfit was as appropriate for a trip to L.A.'s most exclusive members-only club as a game day. How's that for a versatile outfit combination?

These days, there’s so much more to being a celebrity than simply showing up on a red carpet. The rise of off-duty dressing has made any territory—whether it be the departure hall of an airport or the car park of a grocery store—an opportunity to showcase one's personal style. In recent years, the workout studios frequented by the rich and famous have become a common backdrop for them to regularly display their street style, leading to some memorable celebrity leggings and trainers outfits that are certainly worth coveting.

Indeed, the gym is a great equaliser. Whether you’re someone like Iris Law, who is leading the revival of the 2000s activewear aesthetic, or more of a classicist like Jennifer Aniston, who is never far from a two-piece set for her Pilates classes, the pieces we move in are relatively the same. (See: a pair of stretchy pants, a supportive sports bra and some sort of oversized jacket to hide ourselves under once the session is over.)

Of course, it’s not just when exercising that chic leggings looks are exhibited. Those with taste know that this practical silhouette suits a wide range of settings, whether it's Kendall Jenner eating out at Sushi Park in stirrups and a kitten heel or Nicola Coughlan wearing court shoes with a waisted funnel-neck jacket whilst out and about in London.

However, given that leggings are often paired with trainers, it seemed fitting to look at all the chic outfits spotted this year alone. As these looks prove, this outfit formula is truly anything but basic, although it relies on some wardrobe staples to do so, meaning that replicating these looks is a matter of pulling pieces that you already own. And, thanks to a roster of leading brands like Adanola, Vuori and Alo Yoga, a good leggings and trainer outfit isn’t an afterthought, but a very considered choice.

So, whether you’re looking to elevate your own errands-running looks or are simply curious to know how these stars dress for their least public appearances, scroll on ahead of the 6 chicest celebrity trainer and leggings outfits of 2026.

The 6 Best Celebrity Leggings and Trainers Outfits of 2026

1. Hailey Bieber

Style Notes: Hailey Bieber’s approach to fashion is two-fold. Straddling both slinky and oversized shapes with aplomb, you’ll often find her in either a sensual mini or a low-fi ‘fit that takes cues from traditional menswear tailoring. Here, you can see her leggings and trainers outfit sits at the perfect intersection of both. With a fitted, quarter-zip jacket, flared leggings and sneakers designed by her husband, Justin Bieber, this look bridges casual ease with classic elegance.

2. Dakota Johnson

Style Notes: Dakota Johnson has made a home-away-from-home at Tracey Anderson’s Studio City gym. You’ll often find the actress starting her day with a sweat, meaning that there’s no shortage of enviable leggings and trainers ensembles to choose from. In saying that, this outfit is particularly cool. Underscored with a sort of SoCal effortlessness synonymous with the 36-year-old is known for, the addition of the trending bolero top, tassel accent and cobalt blue to an otherwise standard activewear outfit is particularly commendable.

3. Margot Robbie

Style Notes: Given the fact that she hails from the beachy suburbs of Queensland, it should come as no surprise that Margot Robbie looks in her element when dressed the most carefree. Between her charming pigtails, on-trend Loewe Ballet Runners and borrowed-from-the-boys long-sleeved crew neck, this is totally something you’d spot along a coastal walk in Los Angeles or to a casual coffee run in Stoke Newington.

Style Notes: Another adherent of Tracey Anderson’s method, Olivia Wilde is a regular at the celebrity trainer’s studio. As a result, you’ll notice the actress-turned-director’s workout uniform to be quite varied, ranging from a one-piece unitard to monochromatic sets that complement her emotional support waterbottle. Here, she’s at her most conventional, wearing a triangle-shaped bralette with navy leggings and black trainers. Peep her teddy-esque jacket, too.

When it comes to celebrity-designer pairings, is there a more perfect union than that of Margot Robbie and Chanel? Robbie embodies everything a Chanel girl is—cool, elegant, confident, and timeless yet forward. So, it makes sense that the brand would tap Robbie to be the face of its modern-day It bag: the Chanel 25.

The Chanel 25 made its debut during the spring of last year, instantly becoming the bag everyone wanted. Celebrities and fashion insiders were soon spotted with the quilted, chain-strap, pocketed, hobo-style bag on their shoulders, and sell-outs in Chanel boutiques the world over soon followed. Although it's been a year since the initial release of the Chanel 25, the buzz hasn't died down in the least.

Robbie, who is a Chanel ambassador and has been seen carrying Chanel bags on repeat occasions as of late, has fittingly been tapped as the new face of the bag, with a vibrant campaign to coincide. The film, directed by Michel Gondry, features duplicates of Robbie, wearing jeans and a tweed jacket and carrying the bag in different sizes and colorways, weaving along the streets of Paris. Alongside it is a series of photographs shot by Craig McDean of different versions of the star, showing how suitable the bag is for the on-the-go woman. The campaign also coincides with the release of the new Chanel 25 Mini bag (which still provides plenty of space to store your belongings) in an array of colors and materials, bringing the total size offerings to four.

There’s much I love about spring, from longer days to warmer weather; however, as someone who lives in black, pastels aren’t one of them. I find them hard to make look expensive, tricky to style, and I don't even need to mention the constant fear of staining they come with. However, recently, I spotted Margot Robbie going head-to-toe in a colour that I was not expecting to see this time of year. Enter the all-black spring outfit.

Now, any elegant dresser will tell you that black is one of those timeless colours that will never fail you. The kind that looks polished, put together and, most importantly, expensive at any price point. Spotted in a black lightweight crewneck jumper, wide-leg tailored trousers and chisel-toe boots before finishing off her look with a tonal shoulder bag and sleek sunglasses (as well as a laptop, which is majorly inspiring me to recreate this look the next time I’m in the office), Margot proved that going fully monochrome is a fail-proof way to look chic no matter the time of year.

Unlike pastels that often require extra effort to style and care for, black makes dressing feel as effortless as it looks polished. Not to mention that since all-black outfits are usually only spotted throughout autumn and winter, there’s something that feels particularly fresh about seeing this hue in the warmer months. And I, for one, will be taking a cue from Margot Robbie this season and going head-to-toe in this timeless colour.

There are very few pieces in my capsule that I consider true wardrobe staples, the kind that perfectly balance versatility and comfort, and it should come as no surprise that the jeans fall into this category. You’ll find me in denim more often than not; however, the honest truth is that they often feel just a little too dressed down for my liking when it comes to more formal occasions. Luckily for me, Margot Robbie just landed on an elegant trouser trend that’s polished and much more well-suited to dressier occasions than jeans for spring 2026. Enter the tailored trousers.

Styling a pair of cream tailored trousers with a tonal waistcoat, black tube top and black leather shoes, Margot proved just how easily a pair of casual jeans can be swapped out with this elegant trend to polish up an outfit, especially for spring. Opting for her tailored trousers in a linen fabrication, these breezy pants make for the perfect denim alternative for the upcoming warmer months. However, their timeless nature means that this look can be replicated in any fabric, no matter the weather.

But the best part? This sophisticated trouser style can be worn with everything your jeans can. Whether you’re taking a cue from Margot and incorporating it into the fail-proof sandwich dressing rule, or simply want to dress up your tank top and leather flip-flops when the temperature starts to rise, tailored trousers perfectly balance ease and elegance.

Just as versatile as jeans, but bringing a refined look to any spring outfit, tailored trousers are arguably one of the chicest wardrobe additions you can make this season. Keep scrolling to shop the best pairs to invest in for spring 2026 and beyond.

Being a celebrity is undoubtedly a glamorous career, but it does not come without obstacles. Never has this been more apparent than in their airport style.

Rather than going incognito by wearing a comfortable outfit you’ll happily lounge at the gate in, the most prolific stars know that the arrivals terminal is a perfect opportunity to flaunt their personal style and court public interest. Given the fact that the rich and famous are always flying from lavish film festivals to prestigious galas and fashion weeks, they’ve perfected travelling with style down to an art, resulting in some of the most memorable off-duty offerings in their oeuvre.

Indeed, the best celebrity airport outfits of 2026 prove that on-the-go elegance doesn’t have to come at the expense of ease. On the contrary, the key to perfecting a chic look for take-off is to invest in heavy-duty basics that can take quite the beating. Because between the countless security checks, endless time spent waiting before departure and fluctuating temperature once you’re actually in the plane’s cabin, there are quite a lot of variables to factor into your ensemble.

Speaking to the founder of Los Angeles-based ready-to-wear brand Vir Vita, Nickie Tolouee, she explains that “airports sit in this in-between space, so people either completely let go or overcorrect their own style. The most compelling dressing happens in the middle; rooted in intention and entirely true to the person wearing it.”

However, there’s plenty to be gained by looking to these celebrity airport outfits for inspiration, and there are clearly a few cardinal rules that these celebrities follow when getting dressed for a long haul. For instance, the superbly dressed will always utilise a dependable pair of pants, be it trending stovepipe jeans that make them appear extra sleek or low-slung and loose trousers that give their silhouette a laissez-faire note to maximise both elegance and effortlessness.

In the same vein, sturdy outerwear that not only elevates a look, but also conceals any wrinkled t-shirts or slouchy knitwear that hides underneath. Accessories are essential, too. Whether it’s a minute detail like flashing-light-repellent sunglasses, wired headphones, functional flat shoes or a ludicrously capacious designer bag that serves as your carry-on, these styling fundamentals ensure that you’ll come across as thoughtful and intentional from the moment you clear passport control.

“Airports are this mix of chaos and anticipation, so there’s an aim to feel grounded but still considered in what I’m wearing,” adds Tolouee. “The goal is to be both polished and at ease. You should feel like yourself, yet just slightly more refined.”

Whether you have a mini city break in the making or are heading off on a tropical holiday, keep scrolling through for the best celebrity airport outfits that will ensure any trip you take is all the more cool.

The 7 Best Celebrity Airport Outfits of 2026

1. Margot Robbie

Style Notes: It would be remiss of us to complete this edit without commencing with Margot Robbie. As the not-with-a-bang-but-with-a-whimper end to her cinematic press tour for Wuthering Heights, the actress stripped out of her corsets and lace and went back to basics.

This monochromatic look comprised of pieces made on home soil in her native Australia, including a softly crisp top and tailored shorts from Sydney-based brand Beare Park. Cementing that the best airport outfits should be able to transcend the tarmac, this look spawned a thousand replicas and garnered a viral status for the way so many TikTok users sought to imitate it for other everyday settings.

2. Jacob Elordi

Style Notes: Speaking of virality, it almost feels like every time Jacob Elordi boards a flight, we know we’re in for a good thing. From his James Dean Death Club caps, to his impressive collection of incredibly spacious luxury totes—Louis Vuitton Speedys! Bottega Veneta Andiamos!—and jeans so roomy they can hold a 600-plus-page paperback in their pockets, the Brisbane-born actor’s airport outfits are the definition of trendsetting.

However, in 2026, he really upped the ante, wearing a bubblegum pink intrecciato leather duffle bag from Bottega Veneta and a custom mustard-coloured corduroy jacket from Bode. The style is hand-painted with motifs relevant to Elordi’s own life, including an outline of Queensland, the state where he hails from, comedy and tragedy masks, the head of Frankenstein's monster from the original 1931 film and his golden retriever, Layla.

3. Hailey Bieber

Style Notes: Touching down in Sydney as part of the global expansion of her beauty titan Rhode, Hailey Bieber brought a brighter outlook to the harbour city in a cropped trench coat from Magda Butrym and white cropped trousers from The Row. One of her most minimalistic looks yet, the model-turned-mogul showed that practicality and sophistication can go hand-in-hand, even after you’ve just touched down after taking a red eye.

4. Nicole Kidman

Style Notes: The red carpet is certainly Nicole Kidman’s forte, but this airport outfit is certainly a scene stealer in her own right. In an homage to ‘90s airport dressing, the Oscar winner arrived for a flight wearing dark wash cuffed jeans, a new-season Chanel blazer and slim trainers. This look also came off the back of her arrival outfit earlier in the month, which consisted of a pair of high-waisted trousers, a cropped leather jacket and the French Maison’s Chanel 25 bag.

5. Amal Clooney

Style Notes: Amal Clooney has adjusted to her life in the limelight exceptionally well, always turning out a look that is equal parts graceful and glamorous. Here, she was spotted at the Milan Malpensa Airport wearing a look that’s become her unofficial uniform. In bootcut jeans, an elongated blazer and a timeless top, this ensemble has all the trappings of a modern classic.

6. Olivia Wilde

Style Notes: Actor-turned-director Olivia Wilde has always struck the perfect balance between feminine and masculine. For public appearances, she’s unafraid to dress with sensuality in body-conscious and highly vamp silhouettes from the likes of Saint Laurent.

For more private encounters, however, Wilde adjusts to a more androgynous sensibility that focuses on strong tailoring and slouchy cuts. Here, the latter is on display and perfectly executed, courtesy of a Toteme blazer, leopard-print coat and pinstripe shirt.

7. Margot Robbie

Style Notes: A simple outfit can look so thought-out when seen on the right person. Here, Margot Robbie demonstrates this tenfold in an ensemble containing essentials you’d find in any well-edited wardrobe—a structured plain white t-shirt, relaxed jeans and a pair of slingbacks.

Sure, they’re instantly elevated when you consider the fact that they’re all new season pieces designed by Matthieu Blazy. (Save for the crisp top, which comes courtesy of new L.A.-based brand Saint Sirène.) Still, when you consider the perfect proportions and spotless finish, this is a look you’ll be desperate to recreate. A word of warning, save this one for shorter durations, as we can’t guarantee hours sitting in economy will have you walking off the plane as put-together as Margot.

It’s a throwaway line so severe that it’s been seared in our collective memories, but from the moment Miranda Priestly admonished one of her editorial staff for suggesting covering florals for spring, it’s almost felt like we’ve second-guessed wearing them. Trite? Perhaps. But apt for a season that’s perennially in bloom? Completely.

This season, however, fashion’s most tasteful are rebelling against this authoritative decree and proving that, despite all the pretences and cliches, wearing botanicals during this time of year is genuinely groundbreaking. Of course, there are some brands like the nostalgic-laden designs of Doên and endlessly sun-seeking silhouettes of Faithfull The Brand, who have always known this. In turn, their perennial use of floral prints has made them synonymous with this period, let alone lucrative businesses that turn over millions of dollars in profit. Wearing florals for spring isn’t only appropriate, but for those in the know, an incredibly worthwhile move.

Luxury brands know this all too well, with the spring/summer 2026 season dominated by oversized petals, dusty peonies and ditsy baby's breath. At Dior, Jonathan Anderson paid homage to Monsieur Dior’s adoration for floristry—a passion that began growing up around his childhood gardens in Granville and has culminated in the house staging most collections in Paris’s Jardin des Tuileries—by rendering soft bouquets on bubble hemlines. Elsewhere, at Chloé, Chemna Kamali invoked the lurid essence of the eighties with a fluorescent colour palette and blown-up flowers that felt like something you would’ve seen worn on Tom Selleck on Magnum P.I.

On a popular cultural level, it seems that almost everyone is becoming a hobbyist horticulturist. From Harry Styles featuring a song titled “Coming Up Roses” on his fourth studio album, Kiss All The Time, Disco Occasionally, to Zendaya referencing Carrie Bradshaw’s and Whitney Houston’s iconic hibiscus rosette white dress from Cachè at the Essence Black Women in Hollywood Awards, there’s never been a better time to have a green thumb.

Of course, wearing the motif can be as straightforward as throwing on a ditsy floral dress and calling it a day. However, those more astute will confirm that there are ways of wearing the style less predictably. From blossoms that take inspiration from the impressionist landscapes of Claude Monet to dimensional arrangements that prioritise artistry, these are the 5 key floral fashion trends that are sprouting for spring 2026.

5 Floral Fashion Trends That are Trending for Spring 2026

1. Watercolour Botanicals

Style Notes: André Leon Talley might’ve once quipped that fashion is not art—he said working in the industry was instead like being in the chiffon trenches, for the uninitiated—but this floral fashion is arguably worthy of a spot in the Musée d'Orsay.

With a muted, pastel colour palette that evokes the sensation of being made en plein air—which refers to a technique of painting outdoors to capture a sense of realism on the canvas—this is a style that favours blurry finishes, lighter touches and ethereal elegance.

2. Pressed Petals

Style Notes: If the act of pressing petals is one that resonates with you, then this floral fashion trend is bound to tug on your heart’s strings. Rather than simply screen printing the print onto the fabric, this trend features a tactile element that makes the flowers appear like they’ve been etched into the very material itself.

This sort of jacquard effect was recently seen on the ornate-furniture-inspired collection presented by Hodakova during Paris Fashion Week, during Margot Robbie’s Wuthering Heights press tour and, perhaps most notably, on Jessie Buckley when she took home the Golden Globe for Best Actress at the start of the year.

3. Stitched-On Blossoms

Style Notes: Another floral fashion trend that sits at the intersection of style and craft is chinoiserie. Emerging in the 17th-century as an applied art, the distinct floral landscape synonymous with this style is being embroidered onto everything from demi-couture fur-trimed coats by Conner Ives that are upcycled from antique textiles that date back to the Qing Dynasty to Jennifer Lawrence’s custom Givenchy dress designed by Sarah Burton.

4. Gothic Nightshades

Style Notes: Hauntingly beautiful and devastatingly gorgeous aren’t phrases that are typically synonymous with floral fashion trends, but if the rise of gothic romances and Victorian mourning wear has got you carried away, allow yourself to be swept up by the darkly captivating, moody nightshade trend. These aren’t your grandmother’s botanicals, but something far more morose, like the gothic lace dresses seen at McQueen and the Edgar Allan Poe-approved styles at Prada.

5. Lurid Blooms

Style Notes: They might’ve been the brainchild of the flower generation, but garish and brightly-coloured flowers were all over the runway, from Chloe’s vivid ranunculus dresses that were stylised in a Warholian colour scheme to Zimmermann’s blurry patterns, which feel as if the flowers were caught in a hypersonic freeze-frame. All you need is a swipe of M.A.C.’s Candy Yum Yum, the voice of Randy Newman blasting through your headphones and you’re set.

There's not a lot that could make me stop powering through my to-do list on a Monday afternoon, but Margot Robbie debuting a new bob haircut at the Chanel autumn/winter 2026 show in Paris this evening will just about do it. You see, I make it no secret that Margot Robbie has long been my hair inspiration (I even flew to New York last year to go Margot blonde). Over the past few months, we have been spoilt for Margot hairspiration—mainly when it came to her wuthering waves on the Wuthering Heights press tour.

And now, as what can only be seen by beauty editors like myself as some form of new-project rebirth symbolism for her, she steps out with a bob. And I'm not talking about the faux sort of short haircuts celebrities are famed for faking for red-carpet moments, whereby their stylists pin it up into a neat tuck—I'm talking a proper, fully-fledged, expertly snipped bob.

And if I'm going to be specific here (it's my nature to be when it comes to my bob journalism), Margot's new haircut is actually a lob (that's a long bob) by definition—it sits at the exact mid-point between jawline and shoulders to give it a more low-fuss, low-maintenance vibe. Pair that with a root smudge, some perfectly lived-in beach waves, a wispy fringe and a very on-trend side-sweep, and you've got the absolute blueprint for what is sure to be 2026's most sought-after hairstyle.

While this news is still very much hot-off-the-press, luckily, I know where to search for the details we really want to know. The styling was, of course, done by Margot's long-time hairstylist, Bryce Scarlett. The colour? Jacob Schwartz (who also did my Margot blonde recreation last year). And as for the moment—the cut itself—that was done by the masterful hands of Cervando Maldonado.

While I patiently await confirmation of the exact products used to create Margot's look, you can shop the products I know would do an almost identical job below.

There are very few shoes I’d outright refuse to wear for a trip through the terminal—but mesh Mary Janes have always fallen into that slim category. Between the fiddly buckle fastening (a guaranteed delay at security) and the perforated finish that offers little protection from the well-trodden floors of departures, they’ve never struck me as a practical airport choice.

And yet, whilst I’ve long maintained that I wouldn’t dream of wearing them through Terminal 5, there are plenty of places I’d happily choose them. Now, thanks to Margot Robbie, I’m beginning to reconsider. Gliding through the airport this week, Margot stepped out in a pair of coveted beige mesh ballet flats by Alaïa. Light, delicate and recognisable to those in the know, the shoes have become something of a cult favourite over the past few seasons.

Robbie built a low-key look around them: a long-sleeved black top in an inky shade, knee-grazing shorts, and a glossy black shoulder bag tucked under her arm. Finished with tinted sunglasses, the ensemble felt comfortable and chic—as the best airport outfits always do.

Personally, for a long haul via Heathrow, I’d still gravitate towards a more opaque Mary Jane. But Robbie was touching down in a warmer climate, which made the shoe choice feel much smarter. The mesh fabrication offers more protection than a sandal or flip-flop, while the buckle fastening ensures a secure fit—ideal for racking up steps as you weave through terminals and taxi ranks.

Perhaps mesh flats aren’t the impractical airport villain I once deemed them to be. If, like me, you’re newly persuaded, scroll on to discover the chicest mesh ballet flats to shop right now.

If you insist on wearing jeans to the airport, there’s only one cut I can recommend in good faith—and Margot Robbie just illustrated exactly why.

Stepping off an international flight, Margot skirted the season's favourite high-rise, slim-fitting styles that, though they may look polished, inevitably feel restrictive after a few hours in a plane seat. Instead, Robbie opted for a far more forgiving alternative, selecting a looser, low-rise pair for an infinitely more comfortable fit.

Of course, the comfort of a jean lies almost entirely in the cut, and Robbie’s jeans skimmed the legs rather than clinging to them, creating a relaxed line that allowed for movement and, crucially, comfort. No stiffness, no restriction, the draped finish felt far better suited to international travel. Then there’s the rise. While high-rise denim continues its steady comeback, it’s not always the most practical option when you’re sitting for extended periods. Robbie’s low-rise pair sat comfortably on the hips, avoiding the digging and pinching that higher waistbands can cause mid-flight.

Of course, this is Margot Robbie, so practicality didn’t come at the expense of polish. In a footwear choice I rarely spot in arrivals, she completed the look with tall, pointed-toe heels finished with contrast detailing. A classic white T-shirt and brown leather belt kept things understated, while a slouchy burgundy shoulder bag and tortoiseshell sunglasses added the off-duty gloss she does so well.

Personally, I’d still default to track pants or leggings when navigating a terminal. But I can’t help but admire Robbie’s commitment to chicness at cruising altitude.

There's nothing traditional about filmmaker Emerald Fennell's recent take on Wuthering Heights, the twisted, dark romance authored by Emily Brontë in 1847. The end result? Endless possibilities for the film's award-winning hair and makeup designer, Siân Miller, to translate the heartbreaking tale of two haunted lovers from the windy moors and the film's titular mansion, a feverish, dreamy world fueled by nostalgia and desire. Tear-stained cheeks, muddied hems, and corsets undone by frantic hands come to mind when I envision the most memorable love stories of the 19th century, but this bold take on the tale will leave audiences exposed to much more with captivating beauty.

Among the sprawling Yorkshire moors of Victorian England, we're introduced to Wuthering Heights: a dark and brooding home with halls plagued by the secrets and desires of its occupants... and perhaps a ghost or two. While the film's costumes are already stirring buzz among fashion lovers and moviegoers, it's the beauty that intrigues me the most. To learn more about the thought process behind the dark romance's makeup and hairstyles worn by its star-studded cast, I reached out to Miller for all the nitty-gritty beauty details that set this adaption of Wuthering Heights apart from all others.

The film, starring Margot Robbie as Catherine Earnshaw opposite Jacob Elordi as Heathcliff, hits theaters on February 13, and I got an insider's scoop on all its best beauty moments. Below, Miller shares everything about the movie that sparked a renewed public interest in Victorian aesthetics just in time for Valentine's Day.

Creating Fever-Dream Beauty in Wuthering Heights

The film blends modern and classical references to create visual intrigue, and the result is decadent. How would you describe the unique beauty aesthetic?

We started everything with Emerald's mood board, which was a combination of imagery from the fine arts, architecture, movies, fashion, and the great outdoors. Then, using a private Pinterest group, I would periodically meet with Emerald, production designer Suzie Davies, and costume designer Jacqueline Durran—all of whom I've worked with before. I looked at what they were doing with the tones and color palettes and knew the film needed to be a fever dream through the imagination of a 14-year-old girl—just as Emerald was when she read the book.

Wuthering Heights is a stylized vision with a contemporary take on a mid-century, Old Hollywood soundstage melodrama that draws from a broad elements. It was a smorgasbord of visual references brought together. I liken both of the films I've done with Emerald to learning a language. Both languages are similar, but this is slightly different. Once I've learned the language and I'm in the world, instinct takes over. As my team came on board, it was really a case of trying to get that shared understanding.

How does your creative process for period dramas differ? What sources did you refer to for inspiration?

The film definitely has a tone of a Hollywood melodrama and manages to re-create that feeling. It was a combination of the cinematography, the lighting, production, design, costume, hair, and makeup. … It just has that feeling about it. Jacqueline was my closest ally in terms of the collaboration alongside Emerald, and they were my guiding lights. Early on, Emerald laid this story out in three acts, but it wasn't pinned out and precise. We played around with a lot of ideas and changed things as we went.

Once we knew the motifs and that they were going to suit Margot, so many of the aesthetic choices then became about the necklines, hair, and silhouettes. When it came to the jewelry, I remember constantly wondering what I could do to it that wouldn't ruin archive and designer pieces to turn them into something for the hair in an unexpected way! It was a constant dialogue between the team.

Color plays a massive role in Wuthering Heights to illustrate everything from moments of heartbreaking passion to picturesque dreamscapes. Can you tells me about Catherine's beauty color palette?

The only colors Catherine wears are black, white, and red. One of the dresses you would have seen photographed when she's wearing what Emerald and I call "the horns," which are likened to victory rolls, and a black dress that almost looks like a midnight blue. Throughout the Wuthering Heights set, you can see some leaded windows with an odd palette of red in there and black-and-white floors, so there are echoes of that palette in the product design as well.

In terms of the color palette with the skin, we wanted to start out with Cathy as a child living in a house that's quite isolated in the moors. Her skin is exposed to the climate, and there are freckles and a windburn kind of look. I had scans made of both the younger Cathy (Charlotte Mellington) and Margot, which were turned into 3D vacuum forms. We drew freckles on both performers, translated them to the 3D prints, hot-knived through them, and mixed up a bespoke freckle tone that could then be airbrushed on for continuity.

We see a flush on Heathcliff, Cathy, and Nelly as children that, as they become older, transforms into a natural flush in a deeper tone. It was all about what suits them and looks natural. When we get to the Grange in the film, we used blush not just for cosmetic purposes but as a tool for displaying emotions, like exasperation, nerves, arousal, and anxiety. It helped performers create their characters and tell the story in a subliminal way that can be woven through the narrative. For the rest of it, the goal was to have the look of nude skin.

Catherine's character undergoes notable personality changes as she matures and her relationship with Heathcliff evolves. How is this reflected in her hair?

Initially, we wanted Cathy to have a windblown, natural short of mess that's raw and real. Then, she goes to the Grange and is transformed. For this scene, we wanted an updo created by Isabella. For a time, Cathy reverts back to a "business as usual" Wuthering Heights look, but after she returns to the Grange, we see her wedding style. Emerald had an image on her mood board of a chained diamond over the top of her hair kind of like a cage, which is symbolic of this chapter for Cathy. We decided to create that with hair as a decorative lattice design and little diamond jewels to be seen through the veil.

Could you break down some more of the hair looks we'll see in the film? How did braids with ribbon and jewel detailing come to mind when establishing a look for Catherine?

The pivotal moment when we start to see the narrative of hairstyles is when Cathy is shown the new life Isabella has made for her. Isabella introduces Cathy to the collection of dolls that she's braided and plaited the hair of. We see her in a doll braid or lattice plait, and Isabella opens up a dollhouse. Isabella has designed and created this world where she can dress Cathy up just how she treats her dolls that look just like Cathy. The way the dollhouse scene is filmed is amazing!

I also spotted jewels on her skin to create the look of teardrops or silver leaves in the promotional imagery. Why were you drawn to these delicate details?

All the skin ornamentations stem from references on Emerald's mood board. It had Galliano and Pat McGrath 2007 as well as Vivienne Westwood's 2009 fall/winter campaign where there's silver leaf and silver lashes. Pinterest was fantastic for all this, and we had a plethora of images that we all added to. We didn't know when to use the looks and how wanted to go about it until we got Margot in the chair, but Emerald knew that she wanted to use makeup as a vehicle to show the passage of time in montages.

The jewels on the face were inspired by walls in the [Wuthering Heights] dining room from production design. In the early stages of the set, the walls were silver and decorated with ornate silver jewels with a hemispherical kind of effect. We wanted to echo it in makeup and found some online to use on Margot. Emerald is such a great visionary and has great ideas to feed from. We took a very organic approach that helped the narrative move along.

What can you tell me about the beauty approach you took for the other female characters in the film—namely Isabella and Nelly?

It was kind of a case of "We'll do what suits!" We knew that with Hong Chau and Vy Nguyen (playing the older and younger versions of Nelly) that Nelly is poised and minimal, so we kept the makeup quite contained. She's essentially a servant, and that is made cruelly clear to her. Nelly has a more Victorian style that doesn't change until the end.

For Alison [Oliver] as Isabella, it was all about the fabulous head of hair! She has a girly, doll-like look using headdresses with ribbons and bows and a pale-pink blush on her cheeks that shows she's quite young for her age. There has not been an awakening yet. There's such a great contrast between Nelly, Isabella, and Catherine that is so interesting.

What were your go-to products on set to create these memorable movie looks?

There's a product that's not so readily available, Le Maquillage Professionnel's Fard Crème. I love [it] because it's made from natural waxes and is really sheer on the skin. For blush, the one that worked well for the cast was the N°1 de Chanel Cheek and Lip Balm in Berry Boost, which is also what Pati Dubroff is using on Margot for the press tour.

Equally, I liked Merit's Flush Balm and ones from Rare Beauty and Pixi Beauty. So much of the looks for Cathy's exasperated moments were all her! The natural-looking makeup didn't create masks on anyone and worked hand in hand with the actors' skin to help harness emotions.

I don't know about you, but I'd buy into just about any trend that the impeccably dressed Margot Robbie wears. Yes, she has one of the best stylists in the business, Andrew Mukamal, dressing her, but it's undoubtedly a collaboration, and she consistently proves how inherently stylish she is with her off-duty looks.

Robbie and Mukamal were surely considering comfort when it came to the travel look Robbie wore this week for a Eurostar trip from Paris to London for Wuthering Heights premieres. Yes, it's head-to-toe Chanel, but it's from the pre-fall 2026 collection, which was actually filled with cool, wearable basics. One of those basics trends was track pants. Track pants are the low-key sporty style fashion people have been reaching for en masse since 2026 began. The most forward styles are polished and elevated, just like Robbie's Chanel pair.

I'll be the first to say it: The "rules" around wearing leggings are changing in 2026. There's no wrong way to wear them, but there are definitely key styling choices that make them feel a tad more elevated and forward, like opting for a knit cardigan in lieu of a standard sweatshirt or reaching for a trendier brown pair. Of course, we'll probably always wear leggings with trainers because fewer combinations are quite as elite and, not to mention, functional. If you're looking to level up the look this year, then it's time to pay attention to the specific trainer style you're reaching for, and right now, there are five buzzy pairs taking the lead.

So far this year, the It girls with the best style are only really pairing their leggings with these trainers. Dakota Johnson is loyal to her retro Nike V2K runners, and Hailey Bieber has put her stake in the ground as a Salomon girlie, favouring the viral XT-6s that are always selling out. Basically, if a celeb is wearing trainers with leggings right now, there's a 99% chance one of these exact pairs is on their feet.

1. Nike V2K Runners

Style Notes: Johnson is so loyal to her Nike V2K sneakers that she owns them in multiple colours—the bright-blue pair above and a sleek all-black version—both of which the actress wears with her black leggings to and from the gym. Inspired by Y2K runners, the sneakers lend a cool, athletic feel to Johnson's workout looks.

Cascading waves grazing the small of one's back. Delicate braids tucked into a softly spilling updo. While these descriptors might sound like something from a Jane Austen or Brontë novel, they're actually observations from recent red carpets and runways—a medley of styles torn straight from the pages of our favorite gothic romances and set in modern day.

Though space-age Y2K hairstyles made their Saturn return over the last few years, the looks dominating the 2026 trend cycle resemble illustrations from our high school history textbooks more than anything from this century. Between Margot Robbie's dazzling press run for her Valentine's Day–slated film, Wuthering Heights, and the rolling release of Bridgerton season 4, it's no stretch to confirm that romantic hairstyles from varying periods of Western history are writing new chapters.

"We've had a few trend cycles dominated by that snatched 'clean girl' aesthetic—super sleek, super polished—and now, it feels like we're swinging back toward softness and femininity. There's more texture, more movement, more romance."

Dimitris Giannetos, another celebrity hairstylist who has noticed this historical shift, agrees that modern trends favor painterly imperfection over sleek structure. "Hair trends are always a reflection of broader cultural moments, and 2026 is leaning into softness and expression," he explains. Think Charli XCX's impossibly long Victorian waves, Ariana Grande's swooping Regency-era bangs, and Zoë Kravitz's tendril-strewn Tudor updos. "It feels natural to look back at classic fashion and beauty to draw inspiration and reinterpret it through a modern lens," he adds.

Though these styles look like they came straight from a Sofia Coppola period piece, they're marked by subtle modern touches. Keep scrolling for a closer look at the historically inspired hairstyles beloved by the style set in 2026.

Corset Braids

Perhaps one of the boldest historical hair trends to make a recent splash on the red carpet, this half-up, half-down style includes victory rolls laced up in ribbons and elastic in a corset-like, braided fashion. Vaguely inspired by the simultaneous Tudor and Italian renaissance eras—when ribbons were often woven into the intricate updos in fashionable society—this style has been spotted on both Lady Gaga at the 2026 Grammys and Robbie's character Catherine in the experimental period piece Wuthering Heights. (Note: The film is a fantastical reinterpretation, not historically accurate.)

According to an interview with Allure, the film's hair and makeup designer, Siân Miller, pulled on different eras of fashionable hairstyles to create this horn-like look, symbolizing the character's wicked evolution. If we had a nickel for every time we've seen this hairstyle in the last month, we'd have two nickels, which doesn't sound like much, but it is significant considering its popularity died around 420 years ago.

Brontë Bangs

The gifted Brontë sisters, all accomplished authors, grew up during England's Regency era aka the time period before Queen Victoria's ascension to the throne in 1837. It's also the time period that Netflix's hit show Bridgerton is set in. Middle parts, loose waves, and simple updos were increasingly popular at this time and penned as such in the sisters' famous novels, but one dressy style from this period that we've noticed returning in 2026 is what we're calling Brontë bangs—short, swooping fringe usually paired with a delicate updo.

We first saw the baby-bangs trend resurface on Phoebe Dynevor's character, Daphne Bridgerton, in the show's first season in 2020. Since then, the style has made its way onto the runway of Dries Van Noten's S/S 26 show and, most recently, onto Grande at the 31st annual Critics Choice Awards. Whether or not this style actually feels wearable today, it's a sure nod to the Regency era's reign of romantic literature and matchmaking balls.

Gothic Waves

Nick Stenson, a celebrity hairstylist basking in the glow of this romantic movement, notes the increasingly popular trend of touchable gothic waves today. Inspired by the rivers of middle-parted, natural crimps that defined Victorian beauty standards—mussed from jaunts through sprawling farmland and melancholic lazes by the sea—this organic style is at the forefront of this historically charged trend.

Charli XCX's, Rosalía's, and Robbie's cascading waves have inspired us all to dust off our crimpers, rebranding this fashionable Victorian hairstyle as something very Brat. This goes for natural tresses too. Chase Infiniti's middle-parted, voluminous style from the London premiere of One Battle After Another serves as perfect inspiration.

This trend has been spotted on more than our favorite musicians and actresses. Velasquez spotlights the snaking waves at Valentino's S/S 26 haute couture show as a standout example of this trend, describing them as "straight out of a Botticelli painting." The antithesis of overstyling, he calls these waves "soft, emotional, and beautifully natural."

Modern Renaissance

Between Chappell Roan's fringed, chain mail–adorned half updo at the 2024 VMAs and FKA Twigs's intricately braided crown at the 2025 Fashion Awards, there's no denying the statement medieval-inspired hairstyles make in a sea of trendy loose waves and bouncy blowouts. Most recently, Giannetos crafted a modern Middle Ages updo on Kim Kardashian for the London premiere of All's Fair, decorating the star's signature slicked-back bun with a symphony of loose braids. "The look felt regal yet playful—very reminiscent of classic beauty but with a modern take through texture and asymmetry," Giannetos reminisces.

While these historically inspired looks are typically a nest of dainty braids and loose ringlets, they also can be deeply sculptural. Take Kylie Jenner's vinyl updo or Solange Knowles's half-slicked, half-picked-out tresses for example. "It's all about texture and imperfection—adding braids, loose tendrils, or gently pulling pieces out to avoid anything too tight or harsh," Giannetos explains. While many mainstream hair trends are the by-product of easy, low-maintenance routines, these dimensional styles are bejeweled swords cutting through the clean girl noise.

Bridgerton Buns

We'd be remiss to discuss reimagined historical hairstyles without mentioning Bridgerton buns. Yes, it's a generalization, but the romantic updos recently worn by Kravitz, Robbie, and Stranger Things' Sadie Sink have us thinking about the delicate chignons worn by the fictional Bridgerton, Sharma, and Featherington clans in the hit romance show.

Sink's soft updo at the 2025 Met Gala, decorated with a cloud of curly tendrils, feels reminiscent of the coiffed styles popular at matchmaking balls and park promenades in early 19th century London. Kravitz's micro-braided version is equally romantic, twisted high in a swooping topknot and adorned with a singular silver pin. A few face-framing tendrils were left hanging to add quiet movement. "The key is imperfection," Velasquez muses. "Pull out a few pieces around the hairline to keep it loose, modern, and effortlessly romantic."

I’ll be the first to admit it: low-rise bootcut jeans have never been the easiest sell. Between the flared hem, which can feel oddly proportioned with flat shoes, and the hip-hugging rise that rarely sits quite right, I’d long dismissed the silhouette as more trouble than it’s worth. That is, until recently.

Spotted out in London, Margot Robbie made the case for reconsideration, stepping out in the very denim style I’d long written off. Styled into a distinctly ‘00s silhouette, Margot's look began with Dilara Findikoglu's hip-grazing, bootcut Rushing Hour Jeans (£1250). Rendered in inky black and detailed with strap accents running down the leg, the pair felt far grungier than her usual denim rotation. But not out of place amongst the darker, moodier aesthetic she's been reaching for throughout her Wuthering Heights press tour.

To soften the toughness of the trousers, Robbie leaned into romance, pairing them with a floral-embellished corset top in shimmering gold and pink tones. The contrast brought a feminine balance to the look while offsetting the exaggerated flare of the jeans.

Following with the perfect shoe pairing, Margot amplified the leg-lengthening effects of the jeans by pairing them with a tall, pointed-toe heel in a tonal shade of black.

Whilst Margot is a millennial herself, this look undoubtedly plays up to Gen Z's penchant for a '00s silhouette, I can already tell that Margot's top, jeans and shoe pairing will be everywhere once the weather starts to warm.

By now, you're probably well aware that the Wuthering Heights press tour is in full swing. Margot Robbie and her stylist, Andrew Mukamal, have already wowed us with a mix of showstopping gowns, curious shoe trends, and sentimental jewelry. Her red carpet looks have been garnering most of the attention (and rightfully so!), but her more casual press tour outfits are just as good.

For instance, Robbie attended a post-premiere after-party in Paris wearing a modern take on the peplum trend that last captured everyone's hearts circa 2011. Her custom Thom Browne top and skirt featured sultry lace-up corsetry and an off-the-shoulder neckline, which combined to create a very 2026 rendition of the peplum trend. Plus, instead of the gaudy neon statement necklace I wore with my peplum tops in the 2010s, Robbie opted for an elegant Jessica McCormack velvet-and-diamond choker necklace. Much better.

Parisians are adept at dressing for a lot of things, from the ballet to a casual Sunday flea market, but never does their styling prowess show itself more than on a night out. In New York or Los Angeles, you never really know what sorts of outfits you'll find if you walk into a bar on a Saturday evening. Trends come and go, but dressing up is almost always the precursor to staying out late, with heels, short skirts, and going-out tops usually involved in some way, shape, or form. That's not the case in Paris, though. There, chic women know not to go above and beyond for a long dinner or the continued festivities afterward. Instead, they keep it simple, always displaying an air of effortlessness and confidence no matter where their evening takes them.

Though she's not a local per se, Margot Robbie—who's in Paris for the city's premiere of Wuthering Heights, the new adaptation she stars in alongside Jacob Elordi—dressed like one during a night out with friends, and not just because she was decked out in Chanel and Hermès. The Australian actress was photographed leaving a restaurant in the city, wearing a black quarter-zip pullover and light-wash, cuffed jeans, both of which debuted at Chanel's Métiers d'Art show in New York City in December. With the combo, she wore almond-toe black ankle boots and carried a large black Birkin. The outfit wasn't flashy or awe-inspiring, which is what made it so perfectly at home on the streets of Paris. There, going out isn't a formal affair; it's just another opportunity to show off the understated elegance of every well-dressed city dweller.

To re-create the look on your next night out, you can likely source everything from your own wardrobe. Light-wash jeans with a relaxed fit will be the base (bonus points if you have room at the hem to cuff them), and any black sweater or sweatshirt will work to pair with them. If you want to get really exact, there's a Quince fleece below that'll be effective while you wait for Chanel's version to come out in a few months. From there, add a pair of black ankle boots and a matching leather tote. Voila! You've assembled the perfect going-out look that's French-girl approved.

I'll be the first to say it: The "rules" around wearing leggings are changing in 2026. There's no wrong way to wear them, but there are definitely key styling choices that make them feel a tad more elevated and forward, like opting for a knit cardigan in lieu of a standard sweatshirt or reaching for a trendier brown pair. Of course, we'll probably always wear leggings with sneakers because fewer combinations are quite as elite and, not to mention, functional. If you're looking to level up the look this year, then it's time to pay attention to the specific sneaker style you're reaching for, and right now, there are five buzzy pairs taking the lead.

So far this year, the It girls with the best style are only really pairing their leggings with these sneakers. Dakota Johnson is loyal to her retro Nike V2K runners, and Hailey Bieber has put her stake in the ground as a Salomon girlie, favoring the viral XT-6s that are always selling out. Basically, if a celeb is wearing sneakers with leggings right now, there's a 99% chance one of these exact pairs is on their feet.

Nike V2K Runners

Johnson is so loyal to her Nike V2K sneakers that she owns them in multiple colors—the bright-blue pair above and a sleek all-black version—both of which the actress wears with her black leggings to and from the gym. Inspired by Y2K runners, the sneakers lend a cool, athletic feel to Johnson's workout looks.

Salomon XT-6 Sneakers

It was already hard enough to get your hands on a pair of the viral Salomon XT-6 Sneakers, but with a recent Bieber cosign, the trail runners are becoming some of the most sought-after sneakers of all time, and for good reason. With their rugged soles and bright color combos, they add an immediate cool factor to leggings.

Loewe Flow Runner Sneakers

Margot Robbie and Brazilian model Bruna Marquezine are both fans of the Loewe Flow Runners, and while the pair looks equally as good with relaxed denim and trousers, the retro runners make leggings look much more intentional.

Asics GT-2160 Sneakers

Kendall Jenner recently posted her gym look consisting of a long-sleeve top, matching bike shorts, and a pair of notably chunkier sneakers than we've seen her wearing in a while. The style in question was the Asics GT-2160, sporty sneakers with mesh and silver stripes that may become the underdog hit of 2026, especially if they follow the same path as the viral Asics Gel Kayano.

New Balance 9060 Sneakers

Ana de Armas is almost always spotted at the gym in her New Balance 9060 Sneakers—so much so that they've become the actress's signature shoes, at least when it come to her workout outfits. The chunky silhouette is a favorite to pair with one of her minimalist legging sets from Vuori or Lululemon.

Unless you were living under a rock in 2023, you’ll remember that the year’s warmest months were dominated by the Barbie press tour. Orbiting around Margot Robbie's method-approach to dressing, the actor stepped out in a curated wardrobe that could have been lifted straight from Barbie’s own archive. Fast-forward to 2026, and Robbie is once again using fashion for storytelling, this time for her latest project, "Wuthering Heights," from the director that gave us Saltburn and Promising Young Woman Emerald Fennell.

Unsurprisingly, the wardrobe is no less dramatic. Working once again with stylist Andrew Mukamal, Robbie has so far unveiled a series of striking looks that echo the film’s central themes of romance, obsession, love and loss. True to form, each outfit is laced with symbolism, subtle references and thoughtful Easter eggs that reward with closer inspection. As the press tour unfolds, I’ve been decoding every look to uncover the meaning behind each one. Scroll on for the full breakdown.

1. Margot's World-Premiere Look

Style Notes: For the world premiere of Wuthering Heights, Robbie wore a custom Schiaparelli gown fresh from the spring/summer 2026 haute couture runway. Although the dress debuted in cobalt blue, Robbie’s version arrived in a deep, blood-red hue—a colour that Cathy wears throughout the film. The lace bodice offered another pointed reference, nodding to the Victorian era in which Emily Brontë first penned the novel. It was, however, Robbie’s jewellery choice that carried the richest narrative weight. She wore the iconic Cartier Taj Mahal necklace—famously gifted by Richard Burton to Elizabeth Taylor on her 40th birthday, with a history that stretches back even further.

Originally owned by the Mughal Emperor, the stone was engraved with the words “Love is Everlasting” alongside the name of his wife, Nur Jahan. It was later inherited by their son, who built the Taj Mahal in memory of his wife Mumtaz. A jewel steeped in devotion, grief and obsession, it mirrors Heathcliff and Cathy’s own layered and tragic love story.

2. Matching Jewels

Style Notes: Earlier in the press run, Robbie and co-star Jacob Elordi wore matching gothic-inspired signet rings—a gift from Margot to Jacob—created by British fine jewellery brand Cece Jewellery. Each is hand-engraved with Emily Brontë’s immortal line: “Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same.” The design also features two enamelled skeletons locked in an embrace amid roses and thorns, while the sides are engraved with “C&H” (for Cathy and Heathcliff) and “1847–2026,” marking the novel’s original publication year and the film’s release.

Robbie styled her ring with a sleek black Roberto Cavalli LBD and Christian Louboutin heels, allowing the jewellery to steal the show.

3. Feather Adornment

Style Notes: Feathers have emerged as another recurring motif throughout the press tour. Andrew posted images of Margot to Instagram in feather-adorned Victoria Beckham looks with a quote from the novel describing Cathy tearing at a pillow with her teeth—an evocative image that captures the character's feral, untameable energy. In this context, the feathers become far more than decorative; they act as a visual shorthand for Cathy’s inner wildness and refusal to be contained.

4. Snakeskin Motifs

Style Notes: Animal symbolism continued at the Wuthering Heights global junket photocall. Alongside images of Margot in Dilara Findikoglu’s autumn/winter 2025 snakeskin-print red minidresses, custom Manolo Blahnik heels and Jessica McCormack jewels, Mukamal cited the line, “I’d rather be hugged by snakes.”

The look channels danger, seduction and defiance, qualities that sit at the heart of Cathy’s character, while the serpentine motif underscores the darker, more poisonous undercurrents of the story.

5. Victorian-Era Lace

Style Notes: For an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Robbie circled back to one of the press tour’s most consistent motifs: lace. She chose a sheer, gothic-inspired lace minidress from McQueen’s spring/summer 2026 ready-to-wear collection, which she styled with Jessica McCormack jewellery, reinforcing the Victorian undertones that run through both the novel and the wardrobe.

Raise your hand if you're excited for Wuthering Heights to hit theaters. Yep, that's pretty much everyone. We're only on day three of the press tour, but Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi have already worn a handful of excellent outfits at red carpet events and television appearances. Yesterday, I discussed Robbie's unusual shoe choice, which I dubbed "petri-dish" heels, and now, I'm focusing on a different accessory.

In an interview with British Vogue, the founder of Cece Jewellery, Cece Fein-Hughes, explained the story behind Robbie's and Elordi's matching pinky rings. Fein-Hughes was approached by Robbie's stylist, Andrew Mukamal, to create a custom signet ring for the Wuthering Heights press tour. Robbie loved it so much that she gifted a matching one to Elordi. "The piece features two entwined skeletons in the exact pose of the iconic film poster, a quiet reminder that love never truly dies," Fein-Hughes explained on Instagram. "As time passes and everything else withers away, what remains is the enduring bond between two souls. Circled around the skeletons are Emily Brontë’s timeless words, 'Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same.' Framed by roses and thorns, each detail tells a story of passion, devotion, and wild romance. C&H [for Catherine and Heathcliff] is engraved on one side, and the [release] dates of the book [1847] and the movie [2026] are engraved on the other side."

After a universally lauded press tour for Barbie, during which Margot Robbie and stylist Andrew Mukamal created hit after hit, the duo is back together again to promote Wuthering Heights. I knew the outfits would be good, but I'm already blown away on the second day of the tour. If you ask me, Robbie's early looks are poised to overshadow couture week in Paris, which is also happening right now. Now, that's impressive.

Margot's feathered Victoria Beckham minidress is certainly striking, but I immediately zeroed in on her curious shoes, also by VB. They look as if she stepped into a petri dish, as the footbed has a ridge that rises above Robbie's toes. I can't say I've ever seen this silhouette before—particularly not during her Barbie tour—but leave it to Margot to keep us on our toes (get it?). While her Barbie character will always be associated with the pink feathered mules she wears in the first few seconds of the film's trailer, her Catherine persona clearly has far quirkier tricks up her sleeve. Scroll down to see Margot Robbie's newest outfit and zoom in on her uncommon shoes.

Please bear with me while I search for the right word. Is it yearning? Swooning? Obsessing? Whatever it is, it's not enough to encapsulate the extent of what I feel when I look at Margot Robbie's recent Wuthering Heights–inspired hairstyle. The actor-producer recently made an appearance at Jimmy Kimmel Live! to promote her new film ahead of its February 14 release. Her gothic-looking Alexander McQueen dress was stunning, but as a beauty editor, I couldn't take my eyes off her long, windswept waves.

Robbie is the queen of the press-tour theme (we mustn't forget her iconic string of vintage Barbie looks in the summer of 2023), so it shouldn't surprise me that she is adopting a romantic, gothic-inspired aesthetic. Still, her tousled, pinned-up waves look like they'd be right at home on Emily Brontë's beloved Yorkshire moors, and I absolutely love it. Ahead, see the unexpected hair tool I'm using to re-create this darkly romantic look.

Here's a better look at Robbie's long, windswept waves, created by celebrity hairstylist Bryce Scarlett. Her hair is normally shiny, sleek, and cropped at her collarbone, yet it seems she's embracing a more romantic look for the Wuthering Heights press tour. I think this new era suits her, and I'm dying to re-create the look on Valentine's Day and beyond.

The Hair Tool I'm Using to Re-Create the Look

I snapped this picture after using Amika's High Tide Deep Wave Hair Crimper for the first time a couple of years ago. I was instantly obsessed, and I've continued to use it semi-consistently ever since. Now that I've seen Robbie's Wuthering Heights look, I'll be using it all the time.

I get paid to monitor celebrity style, so I take the task of identifying celebrity-loved emerging trends very seriously. And with Paris Haute Couture Week drawing the world’s chicest dressers into one tightly packed location, I’ve been street-style spotting to my heart’s content. Among the swirl of couture and street-style looks, one shoe trend kept catching my eye.

Easing last season’s ballet flats and predictable court shoes out of rotation, fashion people in Paris—and also Los Angeles—are turning to curved heel shoes on repeat right now. Sculptural yet understated, the silhouette feels primed to thrive in 2026.

I first spotted the trend on Victoria Beckham, who stepped out in Paris wearing a sleek pair of black satin curved heels just yesterday. Styled with a longline jersey dress, her look was characteristically restrained, with the softly arched heel adding enough intrigue to elevate the ensemble without tipping into excess.

Soon after, Alexa Chung wore the same sculptural silhouette, pairing her curved heels with a butter-yellow dress trimmed in theatrical fringing. Balancing drama and ease, the heels echo the movement of the dress without feeling costume-like.

Then came Margot Robbie. Carrying the trend across the Atlantic to the Californian coast, I spotted Margot in a gothic black lace dress, a deep pair of aviator sunglasses and classic black curved heels.

With endorsements from some of the industry’s chicest, it’s clear this is a shoe trend finding its feet. Scroll on to shop the curved heel pairs I’m backing for 2026 and beyond.

If there is one celebrity who channels the essence of every character on their film press tours, it's Margot Robbie. Her Barbie premiere outfits and beauty moments have cemented themselves as core memories for many of the Who What Wear UK team. And so with the upcoming release of Wuthering Heights, I wondered how Margot's glam team would channel the mood of the Brontë novel. So, you can imagine my delight in opening up my phone this morning to see Margot's 'Wuthering Waves' on my feeds. And you can bet that it's subsequently going to be one of the biggest hair trends for 2026.

Margot stepped out with these tumbling S-waves in a half-up, half-down hairstyle prior to her Jimmy Kimmel appearance, which were artfully created by her hairstylist, Bryce Scarlett. Needless to say, I'm completely obsessed, and our whole beauty team wants to recreate it immediately.

Whilst we don't yet have the details on what exact hair tools and hairstyling products were used, I can take a guess that Scarlett would've used a hair straightener to craftfully bend each strand into an effortless, piecey wave, before securing the hair into a half-up, half-down hairstyle, leaving a few face-framing tendrils free.

Alternatively, you could get a similar look with a hair waver to create the tumbling movement through the lengths to create the untamed, windswept vibe of being amongst the Yorkshire Moors. Or, if you're naturally blessed with natural waves, then a curl-defining cream will help to define and enhance your natural texture.

I’ve been in the industry long enough to develop a handful of hard-and-fast personal style rules. Every now and then, though, I’m pleasantly surprised when one of those self-imposed limitations is challenged. This morning, that’s exactly what happened.

Stepping out for a walk through Notting Hill, Margot Robbie resurrected a trainer trend I was convinced we’d seen the last of. Better still, she paired it with the one denim silhouette I’ve always found trickiest to style—creating, in one fell swoop, a look that felt modern and persuasive enough to make me rethink my own approach to denim.

Spotted strolling hand-in-hand with her husband, Margot wrapped up against the winter chill in a slate-grey knit, a longline leather coat and a bright red beanie. Cosy, chic and entirely wearable, it was an outfit I could easily see myself recreating. But it was her denim-and-trainer combination that really caught my eye.

Margot stepped out in a pair of high-top Converse, the likes of which I haven’t spotted out and about for several seasons—yet I still have at the back of my wardrobe—styled with cigarette jeans. I’ve long struggled with cropped denim; the shortened hem can visually cut off the leg, and I find getting the right shoe pairing feels particularly tricky. Yet, Margot’s ankle-covering high-tops created a fluid, cohesive line that felt relaxed but cool—proving the silhouette can be far more flattering than I’d given it credit for.

Whilst low-profile trainers have dominated fashion’s footwear conversation over the past year, the industry’s renewed fascination with 2016-era styling suggests this high-top-and-cropped-denim pairing may be poised for a comeback.

Depending on what type of sneakers you choose to wear with leggings, they can take on a completely different look. Athletic sneakers give them an instantly sporty feel, while, say, a low-profile sneaker gives the legging outfit more of a retro look. On the other hand, the sneakers Margot Robbie just wore with her leggings give them that undeniable “I’m a fashion person” look.

The sneakers in question that Robbie paired with her sweatshirt and black leggings recently in Los Angeles were a highly coveted pair of designer It sneakers: the Loewe Flow Runners. The '70s-inspired sneakers are constructed of suede and technical fabric and feature a swirling logo and a dramatically turned-up toes.

Specifically, Robbie's shoes are the Ballet Runner 2.0 Sneakers, which have a slimmer, less-chunky look than the originals that inspired them. In addition to giving her leggings that fashion-y look, they dressed the ultra-casual outfit up significantly. The elegant, cool-girl sneakers are constantly selling out, so if you decide to splurge on them and spot them in your size, I wouldn't hesitate to snap them up.

If you follow fashion trends, you might've purchased a pair of mesh flats at some point over the past 24 months, as they've been somewhat inescapable. As with any trend that becomes oversaturated, you either have to find fresh ways to wear it or set it aside for the time being. Margot Robbie is choosing the former.

Robbie was photographed in Los Angeles earlier this week wearing the OG mesh flats: the Alaïa Fishnet Ballet Flats. Robbie opted for the flats in a versatile nude, and she styled them in the most timeless way with a knit short-sleeve top in olive green, loose trousers in light beige (which perfectly complemented the color of the shoes), and a brown suede The Row Margaux bag. Don't worry—you don't need these exact pieces. I'd recommend pairing mesh flats with similar sophisticated basics, e.g., a knit short-sleeve top in the rich color of your choice, loose tailored trousers in your favorite neutral hue, a brown suede bag, and whatever fishnet flats you already own.

Yes, black heels are chic. And as someone who rarely strays from a neutral palette, they’re a permanent fixture in my event-season wardrobe. But when I really want my outfit to make an impression, there’s another rich, wintry shade that offers a far more "fashion" silhouette.

Clocking the growing shoe trend this season myself, I noticed Victoria Beckham and Margot Robbie swapped their black heels for chocolate brown pairs this week. While black will always be a classic, chocolate brown has quickly become the fashion person's favourite, offering a blend of earthy wearability, as well as a luxurious depth that few other shades can achieve.

Victoria Beckham made the case with a knee-grazing, glossy leather pencil skirt, styling it with a pair of espresso-brown peep-toe heels. Rather than fading into the background of her outfit, the rich tone added dimension and warmth, pulling together the wintry palette she’s been favouring as of late.

Margot Robbie took the tonal route, pairing pointed-toe brown heels with a similarly shaded jacket and mid-wash denim. Just as harmonious layered with blue jeans as it was with Victoria’s black skirt, the chocolate-brown heel is proving to be every bit as versatile as its black counterpart—only much more current.

In my experience, the party-peppered months of November and December can be some of the trickiest to shop for—especially if you consider yourself a timeless dresser. With micro-trends dominating the landscape each year, it becomes all too easy to distinguish one festive wardrobe from the next. Prints shift, embellishments evolve, and suddenly last year’s “it” dress feels oddly timestamped. As someone who prioritises pieces that will stand the test of time, I often find myself stuck in a seasonal style stalemate.

That's why I was so inspired when I came across a shot of Margot Robbie this week wearing the timeless party-ready dress trend I know will hold up for years to come. Echoing the cool tailoring trend that continues to endure, blazer dresses return every festive season without fail. In particular, the Wardrobe.NYC x Rosie Huntington-Whiteley black blazer dress has reemerged as a favourite among fashion people once again.

Taking hers out for a spin just this week, I spotted Margot styling the collarless blazer dress with tall black leather heels and a black Chanel Flap Bag. With its clean lines and tailored structure, the black minidress takes its cues from classic tailoring, exuding a naturally polished energy that does the styling work for you. As Margot demonstrated, minimal accessories and a monochromatic palette only elevate its refined appeal.

Designed as part of her ongoing collaboration with Wardrobe.NYC, naturally, Rosie has sported the timeless dress on a number of evening occasions, too. True to her luxurious aesthetic, she often leans into sleek, tonal styling—her leather blazer and black fishnet tights offering one of the chicest interpretations of the trend I’ve seen.

And it isn’t just celebrities taking note. I recently spotted influencer @nlmarilyn layering hers over a black column skirt and finishing with a structured hat, whilst others have kept things classic, opting for sheer black tights and pointed-toe heels for an elegant and refined finish.

While the Wardrobe.NYC version is having a moment; the high street and designer offerings are just as compelling this season. From H&M and Mango’s neatly tailored takes to Valentino’s sculptural, evening-ready iteration, the blazer dress is firmly cemented as one of the season's most sophisticated party-season staples.

More often than not, when I go somewhere at night, I'm a jeans-and-a-cute-top kind of girl. After a long day, what I'm going to wear to go to dinner is usually a bit of an afterthought, and you can't go wrong with the aforementioned combination. Margot Robbie appears to have been on the same page while out over the weekend in West Hollywood, and the cute top she wore instantly caught my eye (even though it was partially covered up by a chic navy leather trench coat).

The shirt trend Robbie wore with her trench, light-wash baggy jeans, and satin ballet flats was a ruffled top—specifically, a Chloé ruffled top, the brand that can take a significant amount of credit for the resurgence of the romantic boho trend. The cool contrast of a pretty ruffled top with basic jeans is catnip for a fashion person, and even if you wear the combination with flats, you'll still look night out-worthy in the fancy shirt trend. Keep scrolling to see what I mean, courtesy of Robbie, and shop pretty ruffled tops to wear with your jeans for nights out to come.

It's officially fall in three days, "and when the leaves start to turn, we know it's time…" to dust off all our suede pieces. We're expecting to see suede everywhere, from slouchy shoulder bags and retro-inspired sneakers to long coats. A fresh silhouette is also expected to dominate and even upend leather skirts: suede pencil skirts. This expensive-looking style is already gaining attention from editors, content creators, and celebrities like Margot Robbie.

For one of Robbie's A Big Bold Beautiful Journey press tour looks in NYC this week, the actress opted for a leather strapless top paired with a coordinating suede pencil skirt from Christopher Esber's resort 26 collection. She completed the outfit with Khaite's brown Loulou strappy sandals.

As mentioned, it's not just Robbie—fashion insiders have been donning suede pencil skirts, especially during New York Fashion Week. For instance, Who What Wear's senior fashion editor Anna LaPlaca paired a tan knee-length style with a plaid shirt, leather belt, and open-toe heeled mules for COS's show. Beauty influencer Meredith Duxbury also wore a suede pencil skirt, a floor-length one paired with a navy leather bomber jacket, closed-toe slingback heels, and a red pencil clutch for Khaite's runway show. These different outfits show how versatile the trend is and how much staying power it has. That's why everyone who loves cool, sophisticated style should invest in one now before all the good ones are gone. With that said, keep scrolling to shop the best suede skirts from brands like Madewell and St. Agni, and see how the style set is wearing them.
