Star’s look is built on stark, monochromatic simplicity. She wears a floor-sweeping, long-sleeved black gown crafted from a fluid, matte fabric that provides a sleek column silhouette. The austerity of the gown provides the perfect canvas for the outfit’s defining element: a spectacular, architectural black hat. This headpiece is the look’s centerpiece, featuring a towering, sharp conical crown and a wide brim accented by a crescent moon cut-out. The aesthetic is completed by dramatic, precise styling, including long, straight black hair and makeup focused on a dark, mesmerizing lip color, evoking the potent archetype of the modern sorceress.
