This Week, The Best Dressed Stars Stepped Into The Matrix – Vogue

Call it the Wachowski effect. Just as the visionary work of the filmmaking sisters is experiencing a renaissance thanks to the release ofThe Matrix Resurrections, celebrities appear to be taking their fashion cues from Neo, Trinity, and the leather-clad characters of the 90s sci-fi action film. Granted, Hailey Bieber and Kendall Jenner have been referencing the franchises slick aesthetic for seasons, but last week actors and entertainers joined them in adopting the look.

While tabloids were busy elevatingUncut Gemsstar Julia Fox to it-girl status, Fox has been busy wearing standout fashions. While enjoying a night out with boyfriend Kanye West and Madonna at retro themed West Hollywood nightspot Delilah, Fox wore a custom crop top from Factory New York with built-in gloves and matching pants with a low-rise waist right out of the early 2000s. As usual, Fox wore the pieces with swagger, adding on one of 2022s must-have accessories, Balenciagas miniature hourglass bag in a glossy black stamped croc material that paired perfectly with all that shiny leather.

Elsewhere in LA, Jenner and Bieber stepped out in the sci-fi-inspired look they helped popularize, hitting up the party for Fai Khadras collaboration with Oliver Peoples on the rooftop of private members club Pluto. Bieber went for layers of black leather, her bootcut Attico trousers, long Magda Butrym trench, and vintage Tom Ford for Gucci shirt working seamlessly together. Jenners take on leather was irreverent; in another material or color, her mini-skirt, boots, and cardigan would have seemed cutesy, but in all black and worn with the sleekly designed shades from Khadras collection, the combination was dominatrix worthy.
