We are once again in the midst of New York Fashion Week. NYFW is always an exciting time for fashion lovers, and this year’s Fall/Winter 2023 season started with a bang, thanks to Saks Fifth Avenue’s kickoff party at The Jazz Club at Aman New York.
The event was graced by several A-list celebrities, including Emma Roberts, Charli XCX, and Nicky Hilton Rothschild, who each brought their unique style to the event on February 8.
1. Emma Roberts Dazzles in Proenza Schouler Midi-Dress
Emma Roberts, the event’s host, looked lovely at the launch celebration in a delicate white. The 32-year-old successful movie actress looked stunning in an exquisite Proenza Schouler pleated bustier midi dress. The dress had a sweetheart neckline and a corset-like design that cinched her waistline.

A set of Schutz Aberdeen buckle leather platform ankle boots and a Bottega Veneta Mini Jodie leather hobo bag added an edge to her outfit. The stunning boot boasts a head-turning platform and heel, perfect for adding flair to any outfit.

She accessorized her ensemble with an abundance of Jennifer Fisher jewelry, including the brand’s Micro Samira Huggies, Samira Cuff, Samira Slice Cuff, Half Round Cuff, Multistack Ring, and Double Stack Lilly Ring.
The host completed her look with striking makeup, donning a stained pink lip, vivid blush, and piercing black eyeliner.

Her blonde hair, highlighted and styled in soft waves, was parted to the side and gently brushed her shoulders.
2. Charli XCX Rocks in Ludovic de Saint Sernin
Charli XCX kicked off Saks’ opening party with a commanding performance, dressed in a striking, retro-inspired ensemble. The 30-year-old singer-songwriter rocked a blue denim lace-up minidress from Ludovic de Saint Sernin’s Fall 2023 collection.
The pleated skirt of her dress had two front slits, and the LdSS symbol was printed in large, bold letters all over the front and back of the garment.

Charli paired her outfit with black lace-up knee-high boots and a denim moto jacket from the same collection. The performer’s dramatic smoky wing eyeliner complemented her black tresses, left in a carefree hairstyle. She accessorized with silver hoop earrings, futuristic shield spectacles, and a black Coach shoulder bag.
3. Nicky Hilton Rothschild Channels Barbiecore in Alice + Olivia
Nicky Hilton Rothschild attended the prestigious event, channeling Barbiecore in an all-pink look from head to toe. The businesswoman and socialite wore an Alice + Olivia Elana croc-embossed vegan leather mini skirt and a Caprice drop-shoulder pullover, which she topped off with crystal-studded pink satin Amina Muaddi Begum leather-trimmed PVC pumps.
She carried a little sparkly Valentino One Stud embroidered purse embellished with a single rhinestone stud and accessorized with a Tiffany & Co. chain-link necklace and diamond stud earrings.

Joel Vasquez’s natural-yet-elevated makeup look included a rich pink lip, blush, and eye-popping mascara, while her hair was styled in a sleek, straight look parted to the side.

The kickoff party was a glamorous affair, with each celebrity making a bold fashion statement. As NYFW continues, we can expect more standout looks from the industry’s top designers and icons.
