The fashion streets have been a dazzling display of diverse styles, proving there’s a perfect outfit for every occasion. From timeless elegance to bold statements, celebrities come correct in looks that rebuff the status quo, offering a wealth of inspiration for committed style stars. As you head out this weekend, set the fashion ball rolling with looks that speak of style and substance, courtesy of celebs. We promise–you don’t need a stylist or a hefty budget to recreate these trends.
Here are 10 celebrity outfits you can replicate this weekend…
#1. The classic black gown (Inspired by Serena Williams)
Serena Williams’ iconic black number for the ESPYs is a masterclass in effortless glamour. Don’t have a bodycon dress? No worries! Look for a dress that flatters your figure, whether it’s a wrap silhouette, an empire waist, or a fit-and-flare style. Breathe new life into an older dress by adding a statement belt or a bold necklace.
If your dress lacks sparkle, consider adding some yourself. Sew on sequins or fringe along the neckline, hem, or sleeves for a touch of red-carpet drama. Formal events, galas, weddings, and award shows are perfect occasions to channel your inner Serena.
#2. Hip-hop royalty (Inspired by Teyana Taylor)
Teyana Taylor’s edgy Acne Studios dress paired with Balenciaga boots exudes fierce hip-hop royalty vibes. Replicate this look by digging deep into your closet for a statement piece. A bold patterned dress, an animal print jumpsuit, or even a dress with unexpected textures like leather or velvet can make a powerful statement.
Don’t have Balenciaga boots? No problem. Style your bold dress with a pair of fierce boots you already own. Combat boots add an edgy touch, while over-the-knee options elevate the look for a more sexy feel. Concerts, nights out with friends, and fashion shows are ideal places to let your inner hip-hop royalty shine.
#3. Queen of hearts (Inspired by Rita Ora)
Feel empowered like Rita Ora in a head-to-toe red ensemble. Don’t have a bold red dress? Get creative and use what you already own. If you have a classic black dress, grab your favorite pair of red pumps and make a bold entrance. The pop of color instantly elevates the outfit.
Additionally, you can tie a red scarf around your waist or neck to add a touch of crimson magic to a neutral-colored dress. A simple accessory can go a long way in creating a statement look. Power lunches, award shows, and even a date night are perfect opportunities to exude confidence and power in red.

#4. Soft femininity (Inspired by Halle Bailey)
Halle Bailey’s ESPY look embodied sweet and feminine charm. Tap this aura as you head out this weekend by breathing new life into a classic Little Black Dress. Cinching your waist with a statement belt completely transforms an LBD and adds a touch of delicate femininity.

Cocktail parties, dinners, and baby showers are lovely occasions to showcase your soft and feminine side.
#5. Summer white lace (Inspired by Ashley Graham)
Ashley Graham’s white lace dress is the perfect embodiment of effortless summer chic. Replicate this look with your white lace dress and add a touch of glamour with a few key pieces. Oversized sunglasses instantly elevate any outfit–choose a pair with a bold frame for added flair. They not only add a touch of mystery but also shield your eyes from the summer sun.
Also, ditch the flats and reach for a pair of strappy heels to add a touch of sophistication. This simple switch elevates your look from casual to chic. Brunches, summer weddings, and garden parties are perfect opportunities to embrace summer vibes in a breezy and elegant outfit.

Sanaa Lathan’s beautiful Simkhai dress at Essence Fest exudes timeless chic elegance. Replicate this look with a midi dress in a sophisticated fabric like satin or silk. Don’t have anything that luxurious? Look for a dress in a similar silhouette with a flowy skirt. You can sizzle things up with nude heels to complete the polished look. They elongate your legs and create a sense of effortless elegance. Work events, art shows, and afternoon teas are perfect places to show off your sophisticated style.
#8. Effortless glam (Inspired by Nene Leakes)
Nene Leakes proves you don’t need high fashion to be stylish. Replicate her black body-hugging dress with a similar silhouette you already own.
