Hollywood Nights: Style Inspiration From the City of Angels
This season's best trends out for your next night on the town.
Whether you're headed out for cocktails, dinner, dancing, or dive bar hopping, Hollywood's laid back SoCal-inspired style is a dream. Model Georgia Graham channels mid-century Tinseltown glamour in fall's best party looks—uncontrived and minimally accessorized, yet strong on sartorial impact.
The Dress Plucked From the Red Carpet
All dressed up and nowhere to go—except a favorite local haunt? A low-key night out with friends doesn't mean scaling down the style quotient. If you're in full-on beads and sequins, everyone will think you've just stepped off the red carpet for an emergency bite and sip—and there's nothing more chic than a girl who knows what she wants and goes for it.

The Dress That Says 'Heroine in a Bond Film'
Fall's best little black dress is best served with a side of good old-fashioned prim and proper: elegant contrast edging and trim, a glossy box clutch, and strappy stilettos. Diamond studs complete the versatile look, which is just as at home on a Vegas-bound private jet as it is in a secret speakeasy in DTLA.

The Dress That Takes You From Dusk Til Dawn
It's high time velvet made its comeback; luxurious, subversive and, in crimson, both innocent and rebellious. Wear it to dinner with your flashy finance friends—then escape to an underground rock show where the boys wear guy-liner and the bartender mixes up killer cocktails.

The Dress That Moves in Very Mysterious Ways
The feathery, fringe-y drama on this tea-length dress is equal parts flapper, costume-drama, and gothic. Clearly made to be worn while sipping martinis, this look, paired with gold-heeled booties, will take you from drinks to dinner to an all-night A-list soiree on Mulholland Drive.

The Non-Dress That Oozes Saturday Night Fever
