In the midst of a Y2K cultural boom, Keke Palmer stepped out in New York City this week channelling her inner 90s It-girl. In archival Chanel by Karl Lagerfeld, Palmer made the most convincing case for the neighbouring decade and its edgy glamour.
From the House’s 1995 runway, a black buttoned lambskin top and a black skirt with a front vent formed the foundation of the look. The shirt’s cropped fit and the skirt’s corseted waist kept the look more siren, less office, while her accessories—large gold earrings and a loose chain belt at the waist—both featured the brand’s signature double C motif, as did the buttons on her shirt.
The actress finished off the look with patent black pumps and the Chanel Boy bag in black croc skin (perhaps another piece due for a revival?) Further, her waist-length copper locks made for a flattering contrast against the look’s black and gold theme.
This moment doesn’t even mark Palmer’s first foray into vintage Chanel this month, as just last week she attended the BET Awards in another archival piece.
The One of Them Days star stepped out onto the BET red carpet in a black mini dress from the brand’s Fall 1993 Haute Couture collection. The flirty piece featured a sheer halter neckline with strategic embellishments, as well as a ruched skirt with a short tulle bustle, both also embellished. She let the dress do the talking with minimal jewellery and her signature black pumps as accessories.
With both looks styled by Molly Dickson, who also counts Sydney Sweeney and Sadie Sink as clients, this duo are nailing elegance without compromising on all the fun there is to have with fashion. Here’s looking at what they pull out next.
