The Best Celebrity Looks of the Week Were a Master Class in Cool-Girl Layering
Sweater weather is off to a stylish start.
After an unwelcome heatwave delayed the start of sweater weather, this week, it finally started to feel like fall on the celebrity style circuit. And not just in New York City, where Zoë Kravitz and Jenna Ortega bundled up in crewnecks, cardigans, and coats. On a 70-degree day in Beverly Hills, Hailey Bieber felt the (faux) seasonal spirit, too.
The season of full-coverage styling started on October 18, when Ortega promoted her new movie, Klara and the Sun, in a Dior peplum cardigan. Her stylist, Enrique Melendez, sourced the Fall 2026 collection for the yellow top and slightly baggy, light-wash jeans. Also in NYC, Kravitz was filming her new rom-com, Die Alive, but traded her character's high-vamp heels for $100 Adidas Samba sneakers. The It shoes came straight from the actor's closet, so perhaps her burgundy sweater and scarf (another Kravitz signature) did, too.
Back in L.A., Bieber gave her trench-and-trousers uniform a cold-weather twist in a cobalt blue coat and leather slipper-looking mules. Lucky for us, the fall/winter fashion inspiration is coming from both coasts. So, for the best celebrity looks from the week of October 18, 2026, keep scrolling and start shopping.
Jenna Ortega
Jenna Ortega looked like the anti-Wednesday Addams in yellow and denim.
Delivering a complete 180 from her Wednesday press tour wardrobe, Jenna Ortega looked every bit a ray of sunshine in a lemon cardigan and light-wash jeans, courtesy of Dior's Fall 2026 fashion show. She finished the colorblocked co-ord with pointy Christian Louboutin pumps in the same anti-butter shade of yellow.
Zoë Kravitz
Zoë Kravitz got into character in Adidas Samba sneakers.
Zoë Kravitz returned to the set of Die Alive, but her high-vamp heels and French girl color combination remained offscreen. The actor switched from sold-out New Balance sneakers to the Adidas Sambas she has worn since 2022. She paired the trendy trainers (which her fiancé, Harry Styles, also adores) with a burgundy crewneck and scarf, black trousers, a matching coat, and a Prada briefcase.
Hailey Bieber
Hailey Bieber traded her khaki trench for a cobalt blue coat.
Everything is still coming up cobalt in 2026. Need proof? Hailey Bieber finished her all-black outfit with a trench coat in an electric shade of blue. The Rhode founder completed the look with a croc Chanel Flap Bag and effortlessly chic slipper-style mules.
Dua Lipa
Zebra-print pumps third-wheeled Dua Lipa's date with her husband, Callum Turner.
Doubling down on the evening jacket trend, Dua Lipa elevated her dark-wash denim date-night outfit with a cropped velvet coat and zebra-print pumps from Christian Louboutin.

Kristen Bell
Kristen Bell ditched rom-com dressing in favor of the culottes trend.
Goodbye, Bermuda shorts. Right now, culottes are the coolest shorts-adjacent style on the market. Kristen Bell proved as much on the Nobody Wants This press tour, pairing the calf-sweeping pants with a fringe jacket from Nour Hammour and knee-high boots.
Lola Tung
Lola Tung brought her new Coach bag to a Knicks game.
Lola Tung, a longtime Coach loyalist, showcased her newest sustainable Coachtopia style at the first New York Knicks game of the season: the Alter/Ego Slouchy Shoulder Bag. Recognize its brown blend of leather and suede? That's because, last month, Bella Hadid debuted—and sold out—the same patchwork piece in NYC. Not only is the under-$300 purse still available in black, but Tung's Sau Lee leather jacket and Marc Fisher boots are, too.
