The "Selling Sunset" Cast on Their Personal Style and Favorite Outfits From Season 5
With each season of Netflix's "Selling Sunset," the cast's wardrobes grow bolder and more memorable. While Christine Quinn worked with stylist Kat Gosik on her over-the-top looks for season five, Emma Hernan collaborated with creative consultant Kendall Finzer for her wardrobe of thigh-high slits and monochrome suit sets.
Chelsea Lazkani is the newest agent to the Oppenheim group, telling POPSUGAR that she puts together all her own looks for filming, and aims to stand out from the rest of the crew. "When you're on a cast with a number of ladies and you all have different body types, you've got to know what your best assets are," she said over the phone. "I'm not 5'9" like the rest of the girls, I'm 5'5", but you may think that I'm a lot taller than I am because I show off the parts of me that are flattering. I think everything is about angles and knowing what works for you."
It's safe to say the rest of the women - including Chrishell Stause, Heather Rae El Moussa, Mary Fitzgerald, Davina Potratz, Maya Vander, and Vanessa Villela - all abide by that rule.
Ahead, the women of "Selling Sunset" break down their personal style for POPSUGAR and also choose a favorite look from season five.

Simone Biles Brought Back This 2000s-Style Tube Top on Vacation in Cancun
Simone Biles continues to impress us with her vacation style in a head-to-toe beige outfit while on a girls' trip in Cancun, Mexico. The athlete posed by a dramatic marble staircase wearing a ruffled tulle tube top paired with matching beige high-waisted leather pants. Biles accessorized her monochrome outfit with a pair of PVC heels and long, dangling pearl earrings. She captioned the image, "brb turning my closet into neutrals only."
The newly engaged 25-year-old Olympic medalist also packed a variety of classic swimsuits for her relaxing trip, which includes her sister, Adria Biles, and friends Rachel Moore, Stephanie Magellan, Sam Roy, Avery, Rebecca Delaney, and Kayla Simone. Biles recently sported two suits by sister-led brand Mikoh, including a gorgeous blue gingham two-piece accessorized with a '90s-inspired white bucket hat and an oversize boyfriend shirt worn as a cover-up. She was also seen in a white triangle bikini by the same brand teamed with a nostalgic Chanel bucket hat and a pair of denim shorts.
Allowing her outfits to be the center of attention, Biles decided to style most of her vacation wardrobe with a single diamond necklace and a pair of comfy white slides. She also painted her nails a vibrant orange hue that pulled our attention straight to her massive diamond engagement ring from fiancé Jonathan Owens, which completes most of her looks. Whether she's wearing a bikini or giving the monochrome trend a try, Biles certainly knows how to pack for a glamorous getaway.
Blake Lively Wows in an Orange Pantsuit and Cutouts Like Only She Can
Leave it to Blake Lively to step into spring with a splash. While walking down the streets of New York City, the actress wore an orange Sergio Hudson pantsuit while venturing out in Manhattan. It was just one day after she attended Gigi Hadid's 27th birthday in a magenta minidress from the same designer. Lively, who has famously committed to styling all her own looks, has likely been watching Hudson's runway since he launched his namesake label in 2014. Hudson's designs are often associated with bold power dressing, which is something Lively is known to practice on the red carpet.
This particular ensemble was debuted on the model exactly as Lively wore it: a satin-lined blazer over a one-shoulder cutout bodysuit complete with high-waisted slacks and a belt with '70s-inspired gold hardware. Lively, however, swapped out orange sandals for spiked pre-fall 2016 Christian Louboutin T-strap pumps and carried a yellow-and-white Louis Vuitton Capucines bag. Accessory-wise, she reached for an extra pop of color from her turquoise-and-orange Lorraine Schwartz gemstone earrings. Lively maintains close relationships with both Louboutin and Schwartz, who often create custom accessories for the star.
Lively explained her styling process to WWD: "The hard part is going through all the fashion shows and screen-shotting all the looks you like and calling them in. I have an assistant who helps in calling in the looks, but a lot of it is I have relationships with the designers," she said. "It's kind of nice because I have a bunch of artists around me who I have direct relationships with. It's sort of a group effort with that. I rely on people who do that for a living rather than outsourcing it to someone else."
Hudson appreciates Lively's support, celebrating her minidress moment on Instagram and writing, "@blakelively you are endlessly fabulous! Thank you for loving the brand, you will forever be #muse." Lively also wore a leather cutout Sergio Hudson dress to the Gem Awards in March, and we expect more instances to follow - all of which are bound to have the same captivating fashion energy as her "Gossip Girl" character Serena van der Woodsen.

Kerby Jean-Raymond Shares the Meaning Behind His First Pyer Moss Handbag Designs
Pyer Moss is branching into new product categories with the launch of a handbag and women's footwear collection. The news follows founder Kerby Jean-Raymond's departure from Reebok, where he served as global creative director for two years.
Pyer Moss's ready-to-wear expansion signals a new and exciting era for the label, giving its loyal fans the chance to achieve head-to-toe looks from the designer. "As my team is growing we are starting to serve the needs and wants of women that work here as well as our customers," Jean-Raymond tells POPSUGAR via email. "And it's something that we are proud of."
Created in partnership with artisanal factories in Milan, the shoes come in yellow, red, and black and feature a mix of thigh-high sandals, mules with block heels, and sock boots. The handbags are available in black and bright yellow and rendered in eye-catching trapezoid silhouettes. Some even feature a prominent hand mimicking a cartoon, a design flourish that Jean-Raymond says has a special meaning.
"As my team is growing we are starting to serve the needs and wants of women that work here as well as our customers. And it's something that we are proud of."
"The hand motif was something that we started to work on in early 2019 for what was the first version of Collection 4," Jean-Raymond says. "Then we brought it over to our Couture Collection as seen in our 'Curtain Rod' and 'Mop' looks. It's something that feels fun, familiar, and reminds [us] of togetherness."
With this collection, Jean-Raymond says he had time to perfect his distribution approach. "Moving away from the scarcity model, the brand is being more intentional with the number of units they produce, making only what is necessary," he shares. A brand representative adds: "In general, Kerby and the brand have taken a step back from the public eye to refocus how they approach design, the way they produce and how they perfect product quality."
Jean-Raymond's first-ever accessories collection is available now on PyerMoss.com, and prices start at $200. Scroll on to shop some of our favorite items.
