Elsa Hosk channels Claudia Schiffer in a daring Thierry Mugler Fall 1995 archival gown at The History of Sound premiere—pearl choker, cape, and all.
Picture this: the Cannes Film Festival 2025, the shimmering French Riviera, and Elsa Hosk stepping onto the red carpet like a time-traveling fashion oracle. Her weapon of choice? A jaw-dropping Thierry Mugler Fall 1995 Haute Couture masterpiece—sheer stripes, sculpted hips, and a satin-lined cape that whispers old-school glamour with every swish.
This isn’t just a dress; it’s a statement. Mugler’s iconic sensuality meets Hosk’s fearless streak, down to the pearl choker and that peach flower detail Claudia Schiffer once rocked. Some might call it a carbon copy, but isn’t there magic in precision? The homage is so exact, you’d swear the ‘90s strutted back to life.
Yet, here’s the kicker: while archival revivals are having a moment (cough Zendaya at the Met), could we push for more reinvention next time? Or is flawless nostalgia enough? Either way, Hosk just gave Cannes its most talked-about look—no contest.
Archival or reinvented—which do you prefer on the red carpet? Should stars stick to exact tributes, or put their own spin on vintage gems?
