Dave Benett / Jed Cullen/Dave Benett/Getty Images It's a dedicated passion of mine to discuss the exquisiteness of celebrity fashion, especially when it concerns Dutch couturier Iris van Herpen. Thierry Chesnot / Getty Images Julia attended the New York City Ballet's annual Fall Fashion Gala, which featured the premiere of dancer and choreographer Jamar Roberts's "Foreseeable Future," accompanied by optical illusion costumes designed by Iris. Sean Zanni / Patrick McMullan via Getty Images The event was hosted by Sarah Jessica Parker, who wore a winged, Black Swan-inspired look from the designer's 2025 collection. Theo Wargo / Getty Images It's almost every year that I find an opportunity to talk about what Julia's wearing, so when I saw her wearing Iris's sculptural black-and-white "Eclipse" dress from the 2021 collection, I lost it. Sean Zanni / Patrick McMullan via Getty Images What's so fascinating about this design is that the tiny, hand-cut, and hand-stitched shapes layered together make Julia look like she was plucked right out of a page of my favorite childhood coloring books.

Julia's look takes me back to one of my other favorite memories - the 2021 Met Gala, where the designer was in her bag, to say the least.
