The streets of New York and the red carpets of Doha lit up last week with more than just music and philanthropy. They lit up with style, daring and sheer presence. From a Thanksgiving float that became a pink runway to the Franca Fund gala red carpet that felt like both a tribute and a quiet revolution, fashion proved it still knows how to touch hearts.

And in a world that moves quickly, these moments seemed to pause time. Whether driven by rhythm, memory or heritage, the looks offered more than just outfits. They provided identity, voice and the silent power that arises when someone chooses to stand out.
The looks
Cynthia Erivoopened the Macy’s Thanksgiving parade with a soulful rendition of “Feeling Good,” and she showed up just as powerful in style. Her deep maroon ensemble from Max Mara enveloped her in a timeless silhouette that exuded elegance and poise. The structured, floor-length coat felt almost like a cloak of power. A matching hat, sleek belt and heeled boots enhanced the look with subtle power, creating a look that felt both classic and impressive.
In the meantime,Naomi Campbellowned the paddock at the F1 Grand Prix in Las Vegas with a fearless, high-octane ensemble that brought together track edge and motorsport energy. She stepped out in a rich brown leather jumpsuit from Zimmermann, whose bold silhouette was immersed in pure 80s nostalgia. Over her shoulders she draped a long snakeskin print coat from Elie Saab, adding movement and an unmistakable attitude. Pointy leather boots sharpened the silhouette and reflected the precision of the track. With minimal but considered accessories, rectangular sunglasses, a gold choker with turquoise details, layered necklaces and subtle jewelry, she let the outfit speak for itself.

Dressed in a breathtaking Jean-Louis Sabaji gown, she stepped onto the carpet with the calm command of a woman fully aware of how her presence can transform a room. The dress, in a vibrant, heat-kissed shade of orange, draped over her body with sculptural ease. A soft cascade of fabric trailed behind her, giving the impression that the gown kept moving even when she didn’t. The look, styled by Wayman and Micah, has a balanced structure with fluidity and boldness with restraint. It honored the evening’s spirit of legacy, memory and giving.
