The Best Dressed Stars of the Week Mixed New With Vintage
From Ellie Bamber’s Moss-play to Greta Lee’s starry gown: The week’s best red carpet moments were filled with archival throwbacks and new-designer classics.
If you thought Hollywood red carpets would dwindle down for a little summer break, think again. This week, star-studded premieres and splashy parties were in full swing—and the best dressed stars all slipped into easy, effortless summery looks for the occasions. There was a healthy mix of brand-new designer and vintage throwbacks on the step and repeats these last seven days, proving that a modern vibe can be summoned from a 1996 pull as much as a 2026 fresh-off-the-runway look.
Greta Lee kicked the week off at the Toy Story 5 premiere in London. The actor (with new bangs!) wore a custom red High Sport dress with starry embellishments. The sleek halter-neck column dress felt both classic yet fun. Ditto for Jennifer Lopez in her archival Atelier Versace gown, which she wore to the Office Romance premiere in L.A.; the laser-cutting and crystal embellishments add a dash of irreverence to her otherwise timeless ballgown.
Other vintage moments that shined? Ellie Bamber found a red, yellow, and black tube dress from Calvin Klein’s fall 1997 collection—an iconic lineup from the American designer, once worn by Kate Moss, who Bamber plays in Moss & Freud. Sydney Sweeney stepped out in New York with boyfriend Scooter Braun wearing a black Chanel dress from fall 2003. The question is: Are their stylists pulling these one-of-a-kind retro pieces? Or does Hollywood’s finest all have secret eBay accounts where they are bidding on such finery? Whatever the case is, they make digging into the past look extremely chic in the present tense.
