Two fashion luminaries showed up at the Giorgio Armani Show during Haute Couture Paris Fashion Week, and somehow, they thought "matching outfits" was a good idea. Gasp, right? Our favorite Oscar winner rocked a black velvet cut-out jumpsuit with a snazzy white trim. Meanwhile, the other one—who’s also notable in some circles—opted for a classic black satin suit with a chic white blouse. Who needs color when you can just fade into the background?
Amidst the paparazzi drooling over their twinning moment, let’s not forget Cate’s recent run-in with the press. At the Olivier Awards, a male photographer wouldn’t stop calling for her attention. Her response? A graceful request to stop... then she flipped him the bird. Classic Cate. The media scrum couldn’t help but laugh, and that clip blew up online because, really, who doesn’t love a little sass?
And there you have it: Haute Couture Week continues to serve fashion drama and runway looks, but can we just get more of Cate’s unbothered energy? Please and thank you.
