This week, New York had premieres galore, which meant lots of pretty people in great outfits! Everyone’s favorite couple Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds proved that you don’t need to sync styles to look great together at the Free Guy premiere, and Broadway actress Antoinette Chinonye Nwandu appropriately welcomed back theatre with the brightest dress we’ve seen all summer. To decide for yourself who was best dressed this week, scroll below.

Best Mixed-and-Matched Couple 

Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds at the Free Guy premiere on August 3.


Their looks might not be perfectly complimentary, but that’s never been Blake Lively or Ryan Reynold’s thing — and we still think they look great together.

Brightest Broadway Star

Playwright Antoinette Chinonye Nwandu at the first preview of her new play, Pass Over, on August 4. 


Antoinette Chinonye Nwandu’s colorful dress fittingly reflects the excitement for Broadway’s long-awaited return.


Most Radiant

Minnie Driver at the Modern Love season two premiere on August 2.


Minnie Driver does not just walk on sunshine, she dresses like it, too. This look mixes together orange and yellow in a way that really makes you say, “Wow.”

Most Suited Up

DIXSON and Angela Simmons at his concert party on August 5.


Reality star Angela Simmons might be known for designing shoes, but her two-piece proves she knows how to style an entire look. DIXSON’s green suit just adds to the list of great menswear we’ve seen this summer.

Best Use of a Trend

Lizzie Tisch at the Michael Kors 40th-anniversary dinner on July 31.


We’ve seen plenty of great blazer ’fits lately, but a blazer as a dress? We have to appreciate Lizzie Tisch’s dedication to this summer’s staple look.

Best Dose of Summer Sweetness

Ynairaly Simo’s tutu dress, eye gems, and pearl purse prove she has an eye for the little stylish details, and we love them all.
