When TIME Magazine unveiled its coveted 2026 Women of the Year cover, it turned heads worldwide with actor, singer, songwriter, and dancer Teyana Taylor featured front and center. The Women of the Year issue celebrates 16 leaders “working toward a better, more equitable world.” Taylor’s inclusion reflects her acclaimed performance in Paul Thomas Anderson’s One Battle After Another and her bold, boundary-pushing style. On the cover, she commands attention in a sculptural Ottolinger top styled backwards, paired with mustard Jean Paul Gaultier micro shorts. Unfortunately, fans might have to spend thousands to recreate the look.

One Battle After Another actor Teyana Taylor stunned on the cover of TIME’s Women of the Year issue in 2026. She wore a sculptural high-neck top from Ottolinger’s Resort 2026 collection backwards, according to Mandatory. This gave the garment dramatic, armor-like shoulders and an elevated vibe. And she paired the top with mustard-colored micro shorts by Jean Paul Gaultier. These highlighted her athletic silhouette and grounded the vibrant top. The ensemble was elevated with bold, draped gold earrings and a matching cuff bracelet. Taylor’s flipped-out bob and sharp winged liner gave the overall aesthetic a modern feel.

So, how much would it cost to recreate the look? The Green Gaultier Patch Shorts on the Jean Paul Gaultier website retail for $320. As for the top, the one that Taylor wore isn’t currently listed for sale publicly. However, similar high-fashion Ottolinger tops typically retail in the premium designer range for over $1,000. A structured, layered high-neck top from the same designer currently retails for $1,774, according to Editorialist. Another structured, gathered top from Ottolinger retails for $1,260 on Farfetch.

With these prices in mind, it would likely cost close to $2,000 just to recreate Taylor’s top and bottom look from the magazine cover. And with the addition of accessories, hair, and makeup, fans would have to spend top dollar.
