Vintage Takes Center Stage at Vogue World 2025: Hollywood

Vogue World 2025 Hollywood celebrated the timeless connection between cinema and fashion as attendees graced the Paramount lot in carefully curated archival pieces. Rather than debuting fresh runway collections, guests embraced vintage inspiration, telling their own sartorial stories through rare designer finds sourced from personal archives and specialty boutiques.

Archival Treasures Hit the Red Carpet

Olivia Munn turned heads in a striking Paco Rabanne spring-summer 1993 couture gown, a one-of-a-kind black silk piece featuring delicate metallic gold leaf motifs. The dress, sourced from Timeless Vixen—a celebrity-favorite boutique specializing in rare vintage couture—originally belonged to designer muse Kathy Jean-Louis. Styled with minimal gold accessories and black stilettos, Munn embodied classic Hollywood glamour reminiscent of a silver screen siren.

Stars Dive Deep into Designer History

Cynthia Erivo selected a pale blue embroidered Dior fall-winter 1998 cowl-neck dress sourced from eBay, pairing it with a leather maxi coat and silver platform heels for an avant-garde edge. Madison Beer channeled understated elegance in Valentino spring-summer 1993 ready-to-wear, while Camila Mendes wore Ralph Lauren’s fall 2009 beaded lace top and waterfall skirt.

The event’s emphasis on vintage reflected fashion’s enduring dialogue with cinema. Nicole Kidman’s custom Chanel homage to Rita Hayworth’s iconic Gilda bustier dress, alongside these archival selections, demonstrated how historical costume design continues inspiring contemporary style. By celebrating these curated vintage moments, Vogue World 2025 highlighted the artistry of legendary designers and the timeless appeal of investment pieces that transcend decades.
