"Ladies who lunch"—the age-old sect of rich housewives, socialites, and philanthropists who love preppy dressing, fine jewelry, and jet-set trips—are getting a makeover, thanks to season 2 of Ryan Murphy's "Feud." Dubbed "Capote vs. the Swans," the series' new entry highlights Truman Capote's (played by Tom Hollander) rise and fall within Manhattan society in the '60s and '70s. And its A-list cast, including "Swans" Demi Moore, Chloë Sevigny, Molly Ringwald, and Diane Lane, have fully embraced wardrobes inspired by mid-century muses—on and off screen.
Throughout the Hulu drama's press tour, the star actresses revamp socialite tropes, hinting at the original era's trends—matching handbags and heels, skirt suits, pearls, and leather gloves—with contemporary pieces and a carefree attitude. Moore, who plays Ann Woodward in the show, epitomized that point at the beginning of the press events: The actress wore a windowpane-print Carolina Herrera skirt and coat, an elevated pair of black sunglasses, Malone Souliers' Blythe mules. We assume her pet Chihuahua, Pilaf, was standing by as an as-needed accessory.
