The Brat Era Gets Its Premiere: Charli XCX Dominates in Leather and Lace at A24’s The Moment<\/em><\/p>\n

At the Fine Arts Theatre in Beverly Hills, where Los Angeles gathered for A24’s The Moment<\/em> premiere, Charli XCX arrived not to participate in red carpet theatre but to author it entirely. Her ensemble\u2014a custom collaboration between Jean Paul Gaultier<\/a> and Ludovic de Saint Sernin\u2014was less outfit, more architectural provocation. It was the kind of look that doesn’t whisper. It declares.<\/p>\n

The construction began with a vintage Alexander McQueen leather bra, domed and defiant, its sculptural silhouette hovering just above a steel-blue corset laced with the precision of surgical intent. The corset itself became the anchor: cinched, structured, unapologetically severe. Beneath it, R and M Leather’s Tammy micro shorts\u2014barely perceptible, cropped to the point of abstraction\u2014played peek-a-boo with the eye. Her legs, sheathed in sheer black tights, bore a small but potent detail: the film’s title, THE MOMENT<\/em>, stamped in delicate serif along one thigh. Method dressing at its most literal, most cheeky.<\/p>\n

The footwear choice was ruthlessly clean. Saint Laurent’s Apolline slingback pumps in glossy patent leather extended into exaggerated pointed toes, a study in sharp elegance that balanced the chaos above. And then\u2014the pi\u00e8ce de r\u00e9sistance\u2014a massive cream-colored faux-fur stole, voluminous to the point of absurdity, trailing from her hand like a defeated curtain or a trophy skin. She didn’t wear it. She held<\/em> it. A flex in textile form.<\/p>\n

Charli’s beauty leaned minimal: muted makeup, pitch-black hair worn down and deliberately undone at the front, as if the ’90s had been dragged through a wind tunnel and deposited, still sparking, onto the 2025 red carpet. The overall effect was bondage-meets-glamour, restriction-meets-release, a visual essay in contradictions that somehow cohered into pure star wattage.<\/p>\n

The evening itself felt meta. The Moment<\/em> is both homage and interrogation of Charli’s Brat era\u2014a cultural supernova that redefined pop rebellion for a new generation. And what screams brat<\/em> louder than casting Kylie Jenner<\/a> and Alexander Skarsg\u00e5rd? Jenner arrived alongside Charli in a romantic, deconstructed Maison Margiela look pulled directly from their Spring\/Summer 2026 runway, offering a softer counterpoint to Charli’s hard-edged provocation.<\/p>\n

But make no mistake: this was Charli’s night. The look didn’t ask for space on that carpet. It claimed it, foghorn-loud, leather-laced, and utterly unapologetic. Inventive, restrictive, almost wrong\u2014but not quite. Just right for someone who’s never played it safe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
