Lisa Rinna Epitomizes Modern Elegance at Jimmy Choo’s Star-Studded NYFW Soirée
In a dazzling confluence of Hollywood glamour and haute couture, Lisa Rinna made a striking appearance at Jimmy Choo’s exclusive New York Fashion Week dinner celebrating their spring 2025 campaign featuring indie queen Chloë Sevigny. The intimate soirée, which transformed Manhattan into a playground for fashion’s elite, drew an eclectic mix of cultural luminaries, from legendary lifestyle maven Martha Stewart to rap sensation Jack Harlow.
The former Real Housewives star, whose recent metamorphosis into a bona fide fashion plate has captivated industry insiders, demonstrated her sartorial prowess in a masterfully curated ensemble. The cornerstone of Rinna’s look was an architectural white coat dress from emerging label ShuShu/Tong’s spring 2024 collection – a testament to her keen eye for discovering avant-garde designers. The Shanghai-based brand’s creation, with its commanding raised collar and signature black satin bow detail, perfectly embodied the intersection of Eastern refinement and Western modernism.
In an expert display of accessories styling, Rinna anchored her look with the evening’s pièce de résistance: Jimmy Choo’s Ixia 95 pumps in noir patent leather. The $975 footwear marvel, which also stars in Sevigny’s campaign, reimagines the classic pump through a contemporary lens with its knife-point toe and innovative tear-drop heel measuring a precise 3.7 inches. The shoes’ architectural silhouette, available in sophisticated neutrals like “Biscuit” and “Latte,” proves why black pumps remain the ultimate investment piece in any fashion cognoscenti’s arsenal.
Further elevating her ensemble, Rinna introduced an element of controlled chaos with Jimmy Choo’s Diamond Hobo bag in a wild leopard print, its slouchy silhouette and knotted details adding just the right amount of insouciant charm. The addition of sheer black tights lent a sophisticated finishing touch to the carefully constructed look.
This appearance marks another triumph in Rinna’s fashion week circuit, following her show-stopping presentations at Paris Couture Week. There, she commanded attention in everything from a daringly deconstructed pinstripe suit at Jean Paul Gaultier to a volume-play combination of polka-dot blouse and emerald pencil skirt at Viktor & Rolf.
The star-studded guest list read like a who’s who of cultural influence, including model-turned-political scion Ella Emhoff, actor Justin Theroux, nightlife icon Amanda Lepore, and renaissance man Cole Sprouse. Their presence, alongside rising star The Dare, created an intoxicating mix of established glamour and next-generation cool that perfectly embodied Jimmy Choo’s evolution under Sandra Choi’s creative direction.
