Teyana Taylor Wore Simone Rocha & Alaïa Promoting ‘Straw’

Teyana Taylor joined Taraji P. Henson on the press tour for Tyler Perry’s Straw, making back-to-back appearances in New York City on Tuesday with two looks that couldn’t have been more different—yet equally true to her style.

Simone Rocha wouldn’t be the first designer to spring to mind when thinking of Teyana Taylor’s typically street-meets-couture aesthetic, but this Fall 2024 look changed the game. The oversized sheer blouse, embellished cupless corset, and dramatic parachute trousers created a look that sat perfectly at the intersection of feminine drama and fearless edge. It was the perfect sense once she wore it. And those Rick Owens Hollywood Shield shades? I need them immediately

Teyana’s ongoing love affair with Schiaparelli is quickly becoming the stuff of red carpet legend. At this point, she’s practically the face of their accessories—and this latest outing just added more proof. Her Alaïa black velvet high-neck dress provided the perfect backdrop for her curated selection of surrealist bijoux: a buckle belt, eye ring, earrings, pierced visage cuff bracelet, and earrings. Some might be tempted to quote Coco Chanel’s age-old rule about taking one piece off, but Teyana’s not playing by those rules—and frankly, she doesn’t need to. Her personality, attitude, and sheer presence allow her to wear it all without ever looking overwhelmed.
