Kerry Washington Suits Up in Pinstripes at Thom Browne’s Fall 2025 NYFW Show

Kerry Washington opted for sleek tailoring at Thom Browne’s fall 2025 show on Tuesday, where she sat front row alongside Cara Delevingne and Queen Latifah. The designer’s latest presentation marked the end of New York Fashion Week.

Washington sported a navy pinstriped set consisting of a fitted blazer and pencil maxiskirt. She also added on a crisp white button-down, brown necktie and diamond studs. A white Mrs. Thom handbag and a pair of the label’s signature high-heeled brogues completed her look.

Washington’s hair was styled in hip-length braids, while her makeup consisted of black eyeliner and a nude lip.

In December, the Emmy-winning actress channeled Audrey Hepburn at a ceremony celebrating her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Washington was accompanied by her parents, Earl and Valerie, as well as Shonda Rhimes and Tyler Perry.

Washington donned a sleeveless black gown by Giambattista Valli, which featured a sequined lace panel, a bedazzled neckline and a bow tied at the waist. Her glamorous look nodded to Hepburn‘s iconic ensemble from the 1961 film “Breakfast at Tiffany’s,” designed by Givenchy.

Rhimes, who worked with Washington on “Scandal,” called the actress “a true star.”

“I’m really glad to be here for Kerry,” Rhimes began. “This is so well-deserved….She’s a bright soul who lights up any space that she’s in.”

Washington also gave her own speech at the ceremony, thanking her parents for teaching her “to dream.”

“They taught me to believe, and to pursue,” she said. “So here we are. Mom, dad, can you believe it? An actual star? You made a wish, and it came true.”
