Zoë Kravitz

Actor

The longtime Saint Laurent muse embodies the intersection of film, fashion, and cool — an enduring inspiration for luxury houses seeking authenticity, edge and cultural relevance anchored in timeless personal style.

Zoë Kravitz

Zoë Kravitz is an American actress, director and style icon whose effortless blend of indie edge and high fashion has made her one of the most enduring muses of her generation. With a career that spans cult cinema, prestige television and blockbuster franchises, Kravitz’s influence extends far beyond the screen, shaping contemporary fashion with a personal aesthetic that fuses minimalist sensuality, rock-and-roll cool, and a quiet, confident glamour.

A longtime favourite of brands like Saint Laurent, Calvin Klein and Tiffany & Co., Kravitz has fronted global campaigns and regularly appears on best-dressed lists for her red-carpet choices, often favouring clean silhouettes, barely-there gowns and unexpected vintage pulls. Her beauty partnerships, including as a global ambassador for YSL Beauty, reflect her status as a tastemaker whose appeal bridges luxury and authenticity.

In fashion media, Kravitz has graced the covers of Vogue, Elle, i-D and The Face, and is frequently spotlighted for her influence on the aesthetic of the 2010s and 2020s, a mix of pared-back elegance and subcultural cool. Whether attending the Met Gala in chainmail Saint Laurent or stepping out in vintage slip dresses and leather, she remains a benchmark for directional yet wearable style.

As she steps into directing — her debut film Pussy Island positions her behind the camera for the first time — Kravitz continues to expand her creative reach while deepening her influence across fashion and culture.
