Anne Hathaway has taken up the art of ‘dressing for where you want to be, not where you are’ by wearing an Upper East Side variant of the viral ‘coastal grandmother’ aesthetic.
As Manhattanites flock to the South Fork’s bucolic beach towns for the summer—be it Mary-Kate Olsen opening The Row’s seaside cottage boutique in The Hamptons or Kaia Gerber jetting off to the Cayman Island’s Palm Heights Grand with Camila Morrone—few New Yorkers have remained in town. Even Katie Holmes was spotted lugging a weekender tote on a Tuesday. But it seems Anne Hathaway has taken this mode one step further.
After revealing herself to be a secret beauty guru during a recent makeup tutorial, the actress has proven herself to be taking styling cues from TikTok and reprising a niche micro trend from 2022. Updating the Nancy Meyers-approved style in line with her modern Versace-esque bombshell look, Hathway was spotted on June 18 in a black waistcoat and raw-hem silk midi skirt on the streets of New York City. She added to the sleek and vampy pieces with Alaïa’s beloved fishnet ballet flats, straw sun hat and Hermès Birkin bag ornamented with trinket bag charms. (See the look, here.)

Yes, while Dua Lipa might be making a case for the nautical style to receive the bag treatment further downtown, in Hathaway’s corner of the city, its fast becoming an indispensable part of her off-duty uniform.
Earlier in the week, Hathaway dined at the West Village’s Via Carota wearing an equally beachy silhouette. For the occasion, she adorned a slouchy baby blue two-piece set and completed her look with the same accessories. Despite the mercury levels in your respective climate, this cohesive ensemble is the ideal one-and-done mode of dressing for days when the temperature requires you to de-prioritise piecing together a look. A comfortable and elevated matching set is a must-have in your wardrobe, with Australian brand Hyde & Stone offering a tailored woollen variant nearly identical to Hathaway’s. Friends With Frank’s Margot set is an equally lust-worthy option, too.
