On Sunday, October 26, the fashion and film industries converged on the Paramount Studios back lot for Vogue World: Hollywood. The style spectacular—where major houses like Louis Vuitton and Balmain collaborated with costume designers like Colleen Atwood and Ruth E. Carter on clothing inspired by movies and vice versa—was held to raise money for the Entertainment Community Fund, especially those wardrobe professionals impacted by the Los Angeles wildfires. But it also shone a spotlight on the state of California’s film industry: Paramount Studios is the last operating studio physically located in Hollywood, while many productions have been lured out of the Golden State by tax credits.
And what a bright light it was. Dakota Johnson, Hailey Bieber, and Miley Cyrus sat in the crowd, as did Demi Lovato and Maude Apatow. Nicole Kidman opened the show; then Kendall Jenner strutted down the runway-slash-set designed by Jess Gonchor, who worked on Little Women and The Devil Wears Prada. Anok Yai wore a look inspired by Edward Scissorhands, while Teyana Taylor had on an outfit from Carter’s The Black Panther. To paraphrase one of the most famous lines in history: They were ready for their close-ups. (The makeup by Dame Pat McGrath certainly helped.)
It’s been, and will be, a busy few weeks in Los Angeles. On Saturday, October 18, it felt like every famous living actor attended the Academy Museum Gala and the Armani after-party at the Chateau Marmont. Meanwhile, Gucci will host the LACMA Gala on November 1. And Vogue World was smack-dab in the middle of it all.
