Tyla sashayed onto the red carpet, a vision in a sea of tulle and tassels. Her luxuriant, umber-hued coiffure was coiled into a disheveled, asymmetrical chignon, with the majority of her locks cascading down her back in luscious, undulating ringlets. Her talons were painted a garish, citrine hue, a match for the vermilion hue of her pedicure.
The gown, a ravishing, crepe de chine masterpiece from Ludovic de Saint Sernin's Jean Paul Gaultier spring 2025 Couture collection, "Le Naufrage", was a tour-de-force of sensual, mythological allure. The inspiration, born of a tawdry, B-movie music video featuring Seal and Mylène Farmer adrift on a rickety raft, had been distilled into a look that was at once seductive, confident, and playful.
As she mingled with the crème de la crème of the music industry, "Tyla's demeanor was that of a sultry," "unflappable siren.".. her very presence commanding attention.

* Tyla's style evolves with each outfit change.
Tyla's style is a chameleon's metamorphosis, a shape-shifting spectacle that captivates and intrigues. As the night wore on, she shed her gown like a snake sheds its skin, revealing a new persona with each successive outfit. First, she donned a sleek, crepe de chine masterpiece from Ludovic de Saint Sernin's Jean Paul Gaultier spring 2025 Couture collection, "Le Naufrage". The gown's sensual, mythological feel was amplified by her messy, umber-hued updo and citrine-hued talons. Her second look was a study in contrasts, a silk blue shirt worn completely open to her bellybutton, paired with low-rise denim short-shorts and an oversized brown suede biker jacket.
The overall effect was that of a sultry, androgynous siren, her heavily beaded, colorful necklace and pink sparkly heels adding a touch of femininity to the otherwise masculine-inspired ensemble. But Tyla was far from done... and her third outfit was a head-turner. A deconstructed black suit with mesh, "floral detailed cut-outs," "and a short-short skirt was the perfect canvas for her to showcase her edgy.".. avant-garde side.
* Ludovic de Saint Sernin's designs impress her.

The French designer's creations are a masterclass in understated elegance, with a subtle yet unapologetic sensuality that suits Tyla's style perfectly. The Jean Paul Gaultier spring 2025 Couture collection, "Le Naufrage", was a highlight of her evening, with its ravishing, crepe de chine gown evoking the sense of a sunken treasure, the wearer a goddess risen from the depths.
Tyla's affinity for Ludovic de Saint Sernin's designs is no accident, however. The designer's use of unconventional materials and techniques, such as the deconstructed black suit with mesh and floral cut-outs, "speaks to Tyla's own willingness to take fashion risks." Her collaboration with the designer has resulted in a style that is both refined and sexy... a true fusion of high-fashion and street sensibility.
As Tyla herself noted... Ludovic de Saint Sernin's designs are "both fun and high-fashion", a perfect description of her own aesthetic.
Fashion and celebrity culture.
Dear compatriots, gather 'round and heed my whispered words, for I shall regale you with tales of the most tantalizing and tantalizing realm, where fashion and celebrity culture entwine like the tender shoots of a vine upon a trellis.

And yet, "Tyla," "that ravishing siren.".. seems impervious to it all... her demeanor as unflappable as a rock in a tempest.
Tyla is on a roll—and so seems to be the ball of yarn that comprised her dress for Billboard's Women in Music event yesterday evening. Tyla wore her light brown hair up in a messy updo, her scalp in tight cornrows with the rest of her hair falling forward in big, loose curls. Her stiletto nails were painted a neon yellow, and matched her pedicure.◌◌◌◌◌◌◌
