Sydney Steps Out in Style
Actress Sydney Sweeney has been making the streets of New York City her own personal runway as of late, debuting one head-turning look after another while making appearances around Manhattan. After taking a brief respite from the spotlight following her whirlwind December press tour for Anyone But You, the in-demand Euphoria star has reemerged as a bonafide style star.
On Wednesday, Sweeney put a fresh spin on the divisive denim-on-denim trend that dominated the early 2000s, stepping out in a stonewashed Givenchy collarless blue denim jacket dripping with gleaming silver chains. She paired the statement jacket with bootcut jeans, also in blue denim, for a modern take on the Canadian tuxedo. The look, featuring denim pieces designed by Givenchy creative director Matthew M. Williams, felt both nostalgic yet current.
Ever the accessories maven, Sweeney toted the French fashion house’s signature black leather Mini Antigona bag and donned glossy black pointed-toe mules, both trimmed with edgy silver metal eyelets and laced leather straps channeling major Y2K flair. Thin black sunglasses and small silver earrings completed her outfit with a dash of slick glamour.
Sweeney’s affinity for eye-catching monochromatic dressing was also on full display Tuesday when she was spotted around town in head-to-toe chocolate brown. On that occasion, she paired a ribbed turtleneck sweater and knit shorts with a sweeping leather trench coat, sheer tights, and matching knee-high boots. Never one to shy away from accessories, she polished off the look with eyeglasses, large metal hoop earrings, and Loewe’s burgundy Flamenco bag as a pop of color.
The actress took color story dressing a step further this week while attending a launch event for Laneige skincare, of which she’s a global ambassador. Sweeney stunned in a regal purple maxi dress from Tom Ford cinched with a coordinating corset belt from Alaïa. White peep-toe boots, glittering Anita Ko diamond rings, and Jennifer Zeuner hoops grounded the ethereal ensemble.
Over the past month, Sydney has repeatedly demonstrated her knack for cleverly reimagining classic pieces and fashion formulas in a way that feels exciting and new. She clearly has an innate understanding of contrasting textures, playing with proportions, and knowing how to accessorize an outfit to take it to the next level. When she steps out onto the streets of New York these days, excited fans and paparazzi undoubtedly know they’re bound to get a quality fashion moment from the rising style star. One can’t help but eagerly anticipate what elevated look she’ll debut next.
