Great Outfits in Fashion History: Leighton Meester in a Super-Summery Dior Dress

There are properly great movie star design moments, and then there are the looks that genuinely adhere with you, the types you check out desperately to recreate at household. In ‘Great Outfits in Fashion History,’ Fashionista editors are revisiting their all-time most loved lewks.

A hill that I will (admittedly, pretty dramatically) die on is that Leighton Meester’s model went deeply below-appreciated throughout her time on “Gossip Female,” in a “lifestyle imitates art” sort of way. Co-star Blake Lively got Vogue addresses and cozied up to designers, when Meester took riskier swings on the purple carpet that paid out off far more generally than not. One this kind of significant swing was the look Meester wore to the 2010 premiere of “Region Powerful,” a movie which was ostensibly a Gwyneth Paltrow car but was actually a showcase for Meester’s quite a few talents. (All right, I’m a little biased.) (Also, I’ve never ever truly seen “Place Strong,” but which is beside the level.)
