August Icons: Celeb Styles We’re Channeling Now
As summer slips into its late-sun phase, we’re drawing style inspiration from the icons who’ve been quietly redefining what effortless looks like this season. Whether it's all-black elegance, lived-in denim, or cool tonal tailoring, these women are serving the kind of looks we want to wear right now - and really, all year round.
Here’s who’s setting the tone and serving tips for the season ahead. We're taking cues on how to add this energy into our wardrobe.
Black in August? Absolutely.
Copenhagen Fashion Week kicked off this month and is always a flurry of fashion that we can't get enough of. But we are OBSESSED with the subtle yet statement look that Pamela Anderson chose. A sleek and simple black dress. Stunning. Razor-sharp style that transcends trends and leaves us wanting to pair down our wardrobe into only statement capsule pieces like this.
Why we love it: Black in summer feels confidently offbeat. The key is simplicity. Clean silhouettes, subtle texture, and minimal distraction.

Tailored Denim but make it casual.
The Hamptons is a hub for celeb summer style (with a side of gossip). One look we can't stop thinking about is Naomi Watts in an oh-so-cool linen blazer and long, wide leg denim. Classic to the core, but giving modern muse. Last days of summer in laid-back luxury.
Why we love it: It’s the new way to wear denim. Wide and slouchy but balanced by strong tailoring and a darker, more even wash. Elevated but unfussy denim is what we are here for.

Tonal Street Style
This all-white look on Anne Hathaway on the set of DWP2 - tailored trousers, minimal heels, oversized leather bag - is pure fashion clarity. Monochrome dressing, when done right, reads like a statement. Investing in very simple yet effective statement pieces is one of our favorite things to do. Pair them together for impact.
Why we love it: Tonal whites feel cool, crisp, and directional. It’s summer dressing with a sense of control.

August is about shifting gears. It's not quite fall, yet no longer high summer. These women are showing us how to walk that line with intention and style.
