Each week we take delight in scrolling social media, sharing our favourite fashion posts that inspire, educate, and entertain.

Gracing our Instagram feed in an ornate mint Gucci suit, Daisy Edgar-Jones thanks the British Academy of Film and Television Arts for her recent Bafta nomination and congratulates her Normal People co-star Paul Mescal for winning best leading actor.

@nicolacoughlan

Nicola Coughlan wears the off-the-shoulder Glowie dress by Emilia Wickstead for the Times BAFTA Portfolio.

Crafted from textured lamé, the elegant and vintage-inspired dress is everything we desire in a golden gown and more!

@emrata

Em Rata celebrates her 30th birthday at the beach in a mermaid-inspired Versace outfit.

Her gem-encrusted shell bra and cut-out detail slip skirt are from the spring/summer 2021 Versacepolis collection, inspired by a utopian settlement on the seabed ruled by Medusa.

@mindykaling

Mindy looks radiant in a pleated taffeta dress with a square neckline and voluminous puff sleeves by Sea New York.

Pairing the look with Sarah Flint’s Perfect Pump 85 pointed toe heels, she’s ready to welcome guests to her home post-lockdown.

@parishilton

Forever an icon in pink, Paris wishes a happy birthday to her hero and alleged relative Marilyn Monroe.

Taking a leaf out of Monroe’s book, Paris re-quotes the saying “imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it’s better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring”.

@rebelwilson

Making athleisure fabulous again, Rebel Wilson pairs a feather-trim knitted top with ribbed-knit bike shorts, topping off the look with a gold-logo crossbody bag, all by Saint Laurent. 

@kamalaharris

Posting a throwback to a pride parade in 2019, Kamala Harris’ custom rainbow bedazzled jacket is by Levi’s, who champion the LGBTQ+ community each year with an annual pride collection.

@gwenstefani

Pop queen Gwen Stefani debuts her latest hairstyle in a pink gingham dress, with a sparkly filter accentuating her glittery eyeshadow.

Stefani’s Vegas residency re-commences later this year, with shows starting in October.

@maisonvalentino

I May Destroy You actress Weruche Opia wore a bright and breathtaking pink sequin gown from Pierpaolo Piccioli’s Valentino Act Collection to the BAFTAS, opting for a low middle part ponytail with a custom wave clip-on by @hairbythejulie.
