Star-Studded Fashion at Sundance

Once a year, the glitz and glamour of Hollywood make their way to Park City, Utah, for the Sundance Film Festival – a haven for independent films and a runway for celebrity fashion. This year has been no exception, with stars like Jenna Ortega, Charli XCX, and Natalie Portman dazzling fans at the premiere of their dark comedy thriller, 'The Gallerist.' The trio wowed the crowd by sporting a chic neutral palette, each adding their unique spin.

Bold Choices and Signature Styles

Jenna Ortega stepped out of her comfort zone with a stunning two-piece nude ensemble from Mugler's spring/summer 2026 collection. Known for her typically darker wardrobe, Ortega's choice was a refreshing surprise. Meanwhile, Charli XCX pushed the fashion envelope with a daring clear hooded poncho layered over a nude mini dress by Simon Carle. Natalie Portman opted for timeless elegance in a refined blended wool coat.

The Sundance scene also saw the debut of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who were there to promote their documentary, 'Cookie Queens.' Markle looked effortlessly chic in a full-length navy trench coat by Heidi Merrick, paired with black flared jeans by Veronica Beard. The festival's chilly climate didn't deter other stars from showcasing their fashion prowess.

Winter Glamour and Red Carpet Highlights

Despite the cold, stars like Zoey Deutch embraced the opportunity to shine in a Proenza Schouler cinnamon brown floor-length knit dress. The festival was a parade of stunning designs, with Olivia Wilde in Nour Hammour, Tessa Thompson and Gemma Chan in Khaite, and Danielle Brooks in Simkhai.

The elegance continued with Haley Lu Richardson in a sharp pinstripe suit, Elizabeth Debicki in Bottega Veneta, and Olivia Colman in a sophisticated black pantsuit. Rain Spencer wowed in Burberry, while Kiernan Shipka and Rachel Sennott turned heads in Delphine and Chloé, respectively.

Sundance 2026 has proven once again that when it comes to fashion, the stars are always ready to push boundaries and set new trends.
