Sabrina Carpenter, Miley Cyrus, Anya Taylor-Joy, Lauren Hutton, Al Pacino and more came out for Dior’s cinematic resort runway show at LACMA. The collection was full of old Hollywood references made new for bombshells and rebels. Plus, what to watch Cannes fashion edition, and Frank Gehry’s first posthumous exhibition at Gagosian.

He was one of several memorable sightings in the industry insider-heavy crowd, which included Brian Grazer, Sue Kroll, Sean Baker, Danny Elfman and Ruth E. Carter, alongside multigenerational duos such as Leslie Mann and Maude Apatow; Kimora Lee Simmons and Aoki Lee Simmons; and stylist Elizabeth Saltzman and her son, Charlie Walker, who modeled in the show.

Anderson used Christian Dior’s costumes for Marlene Dietrich in the 1950 film “Stage Fright” as a starting point. Her nipped-waist suiting, flower-bedecked garden-party dresses, feathers and furs were present in spirit, but translated into something more modern. Dior 2027 Cruise collection.

The collection opened with a trio of gorgeous chiffon drop-waist dresses decorated with rosettes, introducing florals as a theme that threaded through everything from a gown blanketed in California poppies to whimsical scarves that resembled veritable bouquets.

Fun extras included single dangling crystal mesh earrings and whimsical bird- and bug-shaped minaudières. Dior 2027 Cruise collection.

Knit capes evoked Sombr’s glam rock style, flannel coats featured shadows echoing film noir-style Venetian blinds and casual shirting with typography created in collaboration with L.A. artist Edward Ruscha added to the collection’s sense of place. After Anderson took his bow, guests filed upstairs to enjoy the Geffen Galleries, taking in views over traffic-buzzing Wilshire Boulevard and a brand-new Dior billboard featuring Alison Oliver. It was a scene Ruscha could have created himself.
