Taylor Russell has quickly become a fashion darling, captivating audiences with her impeccable style both on and off the red carpet. Known for her fondness for contemporary designers like Loewe and The Row, Russell also possesses a deep appreciation for vintage fashion, which she showcased beautifully at the recent Venice Film Festival.
As one of this year’s jury members, Russell made a grand entrance on the Lido, donning a houndstooth blazer and matching pencil skirt from John Galliano’s Spring/Summer 1995 ready-to-wear collection. This iconic ensemble was originally worn by the legendary model Yasmeen Ghauri on the runway, adding an extra layer of historical significance to Russell’s look.
Following this stunning debut, Russell continued to impress with another fashion masterpiece: a Chanel Spring/Summer 1993 couture gown. This breathtaking piece, featuring a see-through PVC bodice and dramatic balloon skirt, was first seen on the catwalk by the iconic Claudia Schiffer.
Russell’s love for vintage fashion extends beyond the Venice Film Festival. She previously stunned in a Tom Ford-era Gucci look at the Gotham Awards in 2022 and wore rare Vivienne Westwood pieces during the press tour for her film ‘Bones and All’.
With several days remaining at the Venice Film Festival, we eagerly await to see what other archival treasures Russell will unveil. Her commitment to showcasing fashion history and her impeccable taste make her a true vintage fashion icon.
