She looked straight out of a storybook

Stevie Nicks may be known for her wonderfully witchy energy on stage, but she decided to go full fairy mode for the New York City Ballet’s fall fashion gala at the David H. Koch Theater in Lincoln Center on Thursday evening.

The former Fleetwood Mac member made a rare public appearance for the gala, where she looked like a character straight out of a children’s storybook. Her look centered around a romantic pink dress with a tiered skirt and layers of tulle decorated with swirling embroidery and rows of ruffles. Up top, the bubblegum base was covered with a more opaque mauve top layer, which featured bustier-style panels and shimmering gold stitching, the kind you might find on a Grimms’ Fairy Tales book spine.

Nicks paired the design with a set of sandy platform heels in suede, and a chain pendant necklace with a large opal gemstone hanging from it. Each of her arms was stacked with beaded friendship bracelets (a touch fellow singer-songwriter Taylor Swift would certainly approve of), and she sported dangly gold earrings that swirled down to her nape.

However, the most playful touch was the large flower crown resting on Nicks’s head, which appeared to be made of fresh flowers in pink, white, and green.

On the red carpet, other stars brought a bit femininity and fantasy too, whether it was Sarah Jessica Parker in her sheer Simone Rocha bubble dress with pink silk ribbons running down it like laces, or Julia Fox in her velvet black tux with large ruffles and a frilly white blouse layered underneath.

Anywhere she goes, Nicks just knows how to cast a particular spell.
