Yara Shahidi stepped out for Prada’s Womenswear Fall/Winter 2024-2025 runway presentation in an ensemble by the titular fashion label. Although the look, styled by Jason Bolden, echoed her elegant yet experimental style, the Grown-ish star‘s long, toned legs stole the show.

Shahidi’s edgy-chic look included a beaded black top layered over a button-grommet-punched white button-up. A simple leather belt secured her black high-waisted shorts, and tall black socks accented her black heels with buckle-strap details. A decidedly simple look, yet the accents and textures made it nuanced and striking on the actor/producer/activist.

Yara Shahidi leveled up 2024’s popular slicked-back bun with double sideparts forming a V toward her crown. Her hair designer, Mitchell Cantrell, has styled the locks of Tyra Banks, Jorja Smith, and Youtuber Charly Jordan. He added a Lelet silver dome pony cuff to Shahidi’s braided bun at the nape of her neck.

Makeup artist Vincent Oquendo gave the Sitting in Bars with Cake star a metallic smokey eye, complementing her black-silver top and its metallic accents. Oquendo has worked with Jenna Ortega, Florence Pugh, Lily Collins, and Molly Ringwald.

Shahidi shared the front row with actor/haircare founder Tracee Ellis Ross, actor/singer Amandla Stenberg, actor Mei Nagano, and actor Ma Yili.

She donned a sparkling party skirt fringed with beads. An informal white button-up had asymmetrical strings tied around her neck and waist. Crimson heels, dangly diamond earrings, and a ruby handbag completed her look.
