Katie Holmes brought drama with her color-block gown at the 2024 CFDA Fashion Awards. The actor stood out from her contemporaries at the event with a dress that effortlessly managed to merge two unusual colors and provide structure at the same time.

The gown featured eye-catching elements, and Holmes paired it with several accessories. With celebrities reviving trends, she proved that sporting an uncommon color combination might just top the list. While posing for cameras on the red carpet, she gave glimpses of her ensemble from different angles.

Katie Holmes’ color-block gown featured a plunging back with a cute bow

On October 28, Katie Holmes made a dramatic red carpet entrance at the 2024 CFDA Fashion Awards with a color-block gown. The actor, who has been serving a lesson in street style, is not shying away from showcasing her glamorous avatar on one of fashion’s biggest nights. She grabbed significant attention for reviving the color block trend, wearing a gown that combined the offbeat red and pink color combination. According to Vogue, this trend dominated the 2010s and appeared in the 2011 collections of designers like Gucci.

Meanwhile, Katie Holmes wore a long-sleeved Carolina Herrera gown, designed by Wes Gordon, the label’s creative director. She even accompanied the latter to the fashion event’s red carpet, looking stunning in the dual-toned gown. The outfit featured a sharp design, structured in two pieces. The bubblegum pink top boasted a high neckline and full sleeves. The bright red skirt joined the top’s mid-section and flowed into a plunging V-line at the back.

This masterful tailoring allowed the gown to feature two side cutouts that paved the way for an alluring back design. Katie Holmes brought drama in equal parts with the gown’s front and back. The outfit was backless enough to showcase the actor’s toned physique. This featured a dramatic long black bow to the top’s back. The pencil skirt also had a little slit at the back, allowing her to display her matching red pointed toe heels.

According to WWD, Katie Holmes accessorized her outfit with Irene Neuwirth’s drop earrings that featured six gemstones in various hues of red. She also chose Carolina Herrera’s black patent rectangular clutch to complete her outfit.

We’ve already drawn your attention to Katie Holmes’ uncanny fashion sense. But the actress just took things to a new (pandemic-appropriate) level. She was recently spotted out and about in a blazer and a pair of sweatpants. And they work surprisingly well together. So now we’re obsessed with finding the perfect sweatpants and blazers to see us through fall. And maybe winter.

Our criteria? No overly baggy, hole-filled sweatpants allowed. The blazers have a bit more leeway. They can be boxy, oversized or tailored. It all comes down to coordination. You need to find the perfect match, otherwise you’ll look sloppy instead of sophisticated. While Katie styled her pairing with a white top and sneakers, feel free to opt for a more street style approach. Just dress up your joggers with a frilly blouse and a sleek suit jacket. Or you can rock your blazer of choice with nothing underneath.

On the footwear front, you can obviously keep things comfy with cool kicks. If you want to elevate the look, slip on some strappy sandals, loafers or ankle boots.

To save time, we put together 10 pairs of sweatpants and blazers that look like they were made for each other. They’re perfect for Zoom calls, running errands or date night.

It’s not quite the end of the year, but we would like to go ahead and give Katie Holmes this year’s style MVP award. While the actress has built a strong sartorial reputation over the years, over the last few months she has really raised her fashion game.

From “cashmere bra influencer” thanks to a now iconic street style moment to eye-catching printed tights to wearing white heels after Labor Day, Katie never seems to have an off day because her street style outfits are just as strong as her red carpet looks. (Which isn’t the case with a lot of celebrities.)

Since we realize you’re still recovering from fashion month and have been busy preparing for the holidays, we went ahead and rounded up Katie’s best fashion moments from the last few months to inspire your next shopping spree.

While grunge is still around, this fall is all about being preppy. Argyle sweaters, anyone? And now sweater sets are back and adding to the prep vibe.

It’s all thanks to Katie Holmes and Rihanna. The former grabbed headlines by sporting a comfy Khaite cashmere bra and cardigan set out and about. RiRi also jumped on the bandwagon by rocking a neutral bodysuit and a Michael Kors Collection sweater. Both prove that going matchy-matchy is totally cool and somehow feels fresh.

The once outdated trend has gotten a modern makeover courtesy of stylish patterns and unexpected pairings. It doesn’t hurt that these sets make getting ready in the morning a piece of cake.

Check out the slideshow above for the ultimate sweater sets for fall.

The outfits at this year’s festival were pretty much as expected. (Except for Beyoncé’s Balmain stage getups, which slayed…twice.) While cutoffs and crop tops were practically everywhere, double denim was another big trend. We also spotted lots of Victoria’s Secret models sporting Victoria’s Secret gear (natch) — it pays to represent a brand at Coachella. While the second weekend wasn’t as jam-packed with stars, the second round of Beyoncé did bring out a few heavy hitters that were missing in action from weekend one. For all the festival fashion highlights, check out the slideshow above.

The Grammy Awards are the one red carpet every year where we expect some crazy looks. But this year’s ceremony was pretty mellow by Grammy standards. Sure, we saw plenty of embellishments and feathers, but the majority of outfits would fit in at any other award show. A lot of stars opted to suit up, rocking everything from florals to glitzy stripes and even a boxy 80s-style ensemble. And almost all attendees accessorized with white roses to show solidarity with Time’s Up. Check out the slideshow above for the night’s fashion highlights.
