Perhaps it was the spirit of Halloween weekend in the air, but this week’s Hollywood red carpets zeroed in on one particular word: Fun. A-listers were not afraid to experiment and play this week—choosing statement pieces such as theatrical headgear and off-kilter silhouettes that injected their looks with a sense of lightheartedness.
Take Elle Fanning at the London premiere of The Hunger Games: Sunrise On The Reaping. The actor channeled Effie Trinket in a three-dimensional Robert Wun pink couture ballerina gown, complete with a pillbox hat with another ballerina dancer on top. We love whimsy! When dealing with a blockbuster as gargantuan as The Hunger Games, you’d hope the stars go all-out with their fashion choices; Fanning’s co-star Whitney Peak did just that, hitting the step and repeat in a multicolored, patchwork Chanel gown with a sweeping chiffon skirt.
Equally as good? The (surprisingly star-studded) Airbnb.org gala in L.A., where Charlize Theron turned heads in a bright green fringed Givenchy by Sarah Burton gown, while Adela went sleek and sexy in her Saint Laurent black gown with cutouts at the bust. Greta Lee, meanwhile, wore a color-blocked Lii gown—the designer who recently won the 2026 CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund. Leave it to a red carpet star like Lee to have her finger on the pulse of fashion’s next big thing.
