Pamela Anderson, Brooke Shields and Amanda Seyfried lead A-list glam at Giorgio Armani runway show in NYC

Their notion was the original TikTok. On the day of the freshmen move-in, Brooke Shields was at her youngest daughter Grier’s Wake Forest dorm room. Grier told their mother that they wanted to film something, as did her sister Rowan, a senior at the institution. They introduced the idea: the actor would inquire of the children whether Mom had finally become an empty nester. She would joyfully say them farewell by running out of the room when they replied. Shields hesitated a while. She felt conflicted about abandoning them. But she consented after some prodding. More than four million people viewed the TikTok.

But what about the second viral TikTok? hers alone. She sat on her porch by herself, struck by her loneliness, days after drop-off. The finality of it all—that this was unquestionably a rite of passage—just floored me, Shields says to Vogue. She then pulled out her phone and started recording. She acknowledged that she had cried when they said farewell. On October 9, Brooke Shields debuted a vintage ensemble for the New York City Ballet 2024 Fall Fashion Gala. Although some of the pieces had a long history, Shields’s pearl-encrusted gown was once seen by Queen Elizabeth. When Brooke arrived at the gathering, she revealed the amusing fact that the gown had formerly belonged to Shield’s mother, Teri.

Photojournalist Mickey Blank released a video on Instagram where Brooke told a story behind her unique appearance.

“The outfit my mother wore when she first saw the queen,” Brooke remarked.

The A-line gown had a modest high neck with bold square crystals, long, dramatic sleeves, and an elaborate pearl decoration. Shields added a metallic clutch, matching long, dangling pearl earrings, and a pair of white flats to complete the ensemble. Naturally, she wore her typical dramatic brows and kept the rest of her makeup soft and understated, drawing attention to her long, fluttery lashes.the most of the drive home. And this very moment? All in all, she was finding everything really difficult.
