Mykonos, that sun-soaked playground of the posh and fabulous, just cranked the glamour dial to eleven with Zimmermann’s summer soirée on. Hollywood’s glitterati jetted in for the Australian fashion house’s bash, and let’s just say the Greek island’s iconic windmills were spinning with envy. Leading the pack were Olivia Wilde and Emma Roberts, who sashayed in like they owned the Cyclades, turning heads faster than a souvlaki skewer on a grill.
Wilde, 41, served fierce Grecian goddess vibes in a black halter-neck gown that plunged deeper than the Aegean Sea, with cut-outs so sharp they could slice a feta wedge. A gold chain necklace added just enough bling, while her sleek updo and bronzed glow screamed, “I woke up like this… in paradise.” Not to be outdone, Roberts slithered in wearing a sheer, nude snake-print dress—because nothing says “island chic” like channeling a stylish serpent. Paired with pearl-detailed sandals and retro shades, she was giving boho queen with a side of Hollywood polish.
This wasn’t just any party; it was a Mykonos moment, the kind that keeps the island on every A-lister’s summer speed-dial. Since Jackie Onassis turned its cobbled alleys into a catwalk in the ’60s, Mykonos has been the go-to for icons like Grace Kelly, Brigitte Bardot, and Sophia Loren. Fast-forward to today, and it’s still the spot where Beyoncé yachts, Leo DiCaprio sips ouzo, and Kendall Jenner dances till dawn. Zimmermann’s bash, held Wednesday, proved the island’s still got that barefoot-luxury-meets-wild-nightlife mojo.

Wilde, fresh off her Zimmermann campaign shoot against Mykonos’ blindingly white walls, is having a moment. She rocked a peach-and-cream ruffled maxi skirt with a fitted top and tailored jacket—think romantic poet meets boardroom boss. Days earlier, at a Zimmermann lunch on June 17, she stunned in another plunging black maxi with sculptural cut-outs, clutching a woven tote like it held the secrets to eternal summer. Her dance card’s full, too, with a spicy role in Gregg Araki’s I Want Your Sex and directing Margot Robbie’s Avengelyne on the horizon.
The guest list read like a who’s-who of cool kids and royalty. Euphoria’s Storm Reid breezed in with a black-and-white printed dress, as if summer itself designed her outfit. Lady Kitty Spencer, ever the aristocrat, charmed in a polka-dot frock with a sassy red bow. Ruby Sear’s white floral mini was flirty perfection, while Nathalie Emmanuel’s sunshine-yellow gown lit up the night like a Santorini sunset. Jessica Henwick kept it sharp in navy shorts and a knit jumper, and Anna Shaffer’s peach floral maxi paired with sky-high wedges was pure island romance.
Saffron Hocking plunged into a blue-and-white dress, Isan Elba slipped into a nautical navy gown, and Maia Mitchell threw a curveball with white lace and black leather boots—because why not? X was ablaze with fans gushing over the looks, dubbing the event a “fashion fever dream.” Zimmermann’s celebration didn’t just reaffirm Mykonos as the jet-set’s summer HQ; it screamed that Greece’s style scene is hotter than a midday siesta. Here’s to more nights where stars shine brighter than the Aegean moon!
