Tracee Ellis Ross Attends Prada’s Fall/Winter 2024 Runway Show

At Prada, Tracee Ellis Ross not only sat front row, but she also attended in a distinct look that screamed “officecore.” Her mint green fringe top with a white fringe collar added an element of playfulness to her outfit. The rest of the look was kept minimal: a tan workwear jacket with a chocolate brown collar, and a sheer navy skirt that fell at the top of her calves. Brown satin heels were the ideal footwear to bring another chic element into the mix. To accessorize, Ross kept the theme of green going with a handbag in a deeper hue that paired well with her top.

At the recent Diesel Fall/Winter 2024 runway show, 1,000 attendees were watching while on display on digital walls. The attendees became part of the spectacle as models sashayed in new iterations of Glenn Martin’s Diesel. Patchwork denim jackets and blazers, faux fur coats and tops, and floral print dresses filled the runway. Pulled back yet still eccentric, the collection was chic while staying true to Martin’s provocative eye. Rapper JT sat in the front row in a full denim Diesel look with her top worn off the shoulder and her skirt cinching her waist. British model Leomie Anderson channeled her inner vampire in a pink mini skirt and fuzzy printed top holding a cheetah print bag with matching heels.
