Spring runway looks on fall red carpets: try the slip
By LUNETTE Style DeskShare
On Oct 11, 2026, Carey Mulligan wore a Celine spring 2027 runway look to a London Film Festival premiere, part of a red carpet trend of skipping fall tones for next season's clothes. For everyday readers, the slip dress is the easiest way in. Here are 3 satin options from LUNETTE.

What WWD reported
WWD wrote that Mulligan attended Sunday's "Wildwood" premiere at BFI Southbank in look 65 from Celine's spring 2027 ready-to-wear show, which debuted in Paris on Oct 3. The outfit was a silver metallic pleated tunic with a bateau neckline and an asymmetrical hem, worn with a matching pleated column skirt that pooled at the floor.
The outlet framed her as the latest celebrity to wear spring 2027 runway pieces now instead of fall colors. It also pointed to Emma Stone, who wore a customized Louis Vuitton spring 2027 slip dress to the New York Film Festival less than 24 hours after the show.
What the slip dress has to do with it
Stars borrow from the next season because the runways are fresh and stylists want to stand out. Shoppers can borrow the same logic. A slim, fluid slip silhouette in a sheeny fabric sits between seasons: add tights and a coat now, bare legs in spring. Satin catches light the way a metallic does, which is the quiet connection to Mulligan's silver look.
