Overview
- Kaia Gerber dominated fashion coverage at the SVA Theatre premiere on July 27 by wearing a custom, beaded Valentino sheer column gown that critics described as a modern take on the ‘naked dress’ trend.
- Earlier the same day Gerber completed a press tour of New York in three pared-back looks, including a form-fitting red Alaïa dress and a streamlined little black dress that leaned on 1990s minimalism.
- Cindy Crawford attended the after-party at El Quijote to support her daughter but did not walk the premiere carpet, underscoring the event’s family-legacy angle without sharing the blue carpet.
- Photographs and interviews from the premiere highlighted cast dynamics that drove publicity: paparazzi images showed Gerber kissing co-star Hayes Warner at the after-party and co-star Homer Gere said he and Gerber met only shortly before filming and became close during production.
- The Shards is Ryan Murphy’s adaptation of Bret Easton Ellis’s novel about privileged 1981 Los Angeles teens and a serial killer called the Trawler, and the series begins streaming on FX and FX on Hulu on August 5 with episodes released weekly through August 26.
