The Power of the Celebrity Fashion Plate, Decoded

in #fashion7 years ago

To say that Kate Bosworth killed the fashion game on The Long Road Home press tour would be an understatement.

Then again, did we expect anything less?

We're used to seeing the actress set the style standard, whether that's in a mint-green satin suit or an organza gown with matching bolero. Since her Blue Crush breakout, Kate has embodied a Hollywood fashion plate—her interpretation of trends, feminine styling and longstanding relationships with designers serving as style sustenance. And, yes, we've been gluttonous.

Her turns at fashion week and presence at luxury-brand-sponsored galas make us sometimes forget she's an actress and not an influencer or fashion editor. For some, her clothing credits grab more attention than her IMDB profile.

That isn't to say other stars aren't fashionable. Every time Blake Lively hits the promo circuit, her outfit changes make headlines for days. Models like Gigi Hadid and Kendall Jenner will set a trend on one week, only to have said trend inundate the fast-fashion market on another. But there is also a cadre of celebrities whose star shines bright (and, therefore, stays relevant) because a certain fashion prowess fuels the fire.

What does it take to be a Hollywood fashion plate? Let's review the ingredients.

Card-Carrying Fashion Party-Goer

First and foremost, a fashion plate, like Jaime King, is a member of the Society of Style Savants. They meet at the Met Gala, CFDA Fashion Awards, boutique openings, runway show after-parties and, most importantly, the front row. During fashion weeks, they offer street-style photographers a decadent, multi-course meal of #OOTD after #OOTD. Not to mention, they are regularly dressed by the houses of Chanel, Dior and Balmain…even when there's no project to promote.

Jaime King

The actress may have gotten her start in White Chicks as a shallow Hamptons-bound heiress, but her off-screen wardrobe has much more depth. She's a staple at fashion shows, supporting both iconic designers, like Oscar de la Renta, and emerging ones, like Monse. And the way she mixes textures and proportions makes her one to follow on social media.
