“Fashion’s been in a place that’s really experimental and avant-garde,” Sienna Miller recently told Vogue’s Chloe Schama. “But this felt like, ‘Thank God we can be that girl again’.” The actor was discussing the appeal of Chemena Kamali’s free-wheeling bohemianism at Chloé, but could just as feasibly have been talking about any number of past trends.
That is because she was last night photographed at a London celebration of Dune: Part Two–talk about bringing things back from the dead–in some leather trousers, which, though a cornerstone of the ascendant influencer wardrobe, have been notably absent from the broader fashion conversation. (That will perhaps change when Aaron Esh, JW Anderson, and Martine Rose’s spring 2025 collections, which featured lots of leather pants in attenuated and oversized cuts, arrive in stores.)
Miller built her outfit on several more throwbacks: a chevron Louis Vuitton knit from Nicolas Ghesquière’s Resort 2019 collection and some Pierre Hardy block-heel sandals dating back to 2015. There are, obviously, few limits to Miller’s nostalgia. “Any form of French antique underwear is my dream summer wardrobe,” she said in an interview not long after Chloé’s latest presentation at Paris Fashion Week, adding that she had bought a pair of ’70s bloomers at Portobello Road Market the week before. “I’m going to send a picture to Chemena, because they belonged on that runway!”
