Despite the modern, edgy looks sent down recent runways, designers routinely still feel the need to flashback to the past by offering up vintage-inspired fashions. Greta showcased that kind of old school vibe when she attended the Chanel and Charles Finch Pre-Oscar Dinner earlier this month in a white Chanel dress with black contrasting trim. She capped off the look with black bow pumps. Keira selected the white-trimmed navy version of this classic creation for the Los Angeles premiere of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit in January. The actress simply accessorized with a pair of black suede pumps. Are you a fan of Greta’s crisp shade or Keira’s darker take?
