Oh, the Many Stars Who've Fallen Under the Hypnotizing Spell of the Sexy "Wet Look" Dress

Megan Fox, Bella Hadid, Gigi Hadid, Chloe Bailey, Sza, Tinashe, FKA Twigs, and Rina Sawamaya. What do these actors, models, and musicians have in common? Well, aside from powerhouse stardom they share a love for Di Petsa's "wet look" design. Everywhere few weeks, a new celebrity emerges wearing Dimitria Petsa's creation and captivates fans all over again. But what is the story behind this style stars can't get enough of?

Dimitria told W Magazine that her design was inspired by "feminist theory" in an effort to reject society's desire for women to be "dry" - a form of oppression, in her eyes. "I wanted to create the view of a woman who's completely wet, but dressed," Dimitria said. "Then when you are out in public, people actually think that you're wet and participating in a performance-something to be celebrated rather than hidden." Her first creation came about in 2018 and has quickly evolved into varied styles like bridal gowns and separates.

The sensual designs feature mesh fabric that clings to the body, giving the appearance of emerging straight from a body of water. It's surreal to see the optical illusion work its magic in front of the camera: the wearer in a seemingly soaked fabric while still dry. No wonder the creation has become a favorite of Hollywood's brightest stars, and only continues to pick up steam. See the many standout people who've worn Dimitria's design so far in the photos ahead.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
