Zoe Kravitz skipped the 2024 VMAs, but still made it to the after-party on the roof of Electric Lady Studios on Wednesday night. Her black-and-white outfit could not have contrasted more with the gorgeous post-show ensembles worn by other celebrities at the party. For example, Sabrina Carpenter recreated a revealing Britney Spears-like look, while Taylor Swift shined in a bijoux-embellished Monse mini dress. Kravitz, on the other hand, eschewed party dresses and opted for braless, wearing straight-leg dark gray jeans with a matching belt, a sheer cropped T-shirt, a black oversized blazer, a small duffle handbag, and pointed slingback heels. [Like a true rock star's daughter, Kravitz adorned her understated look with dangling cross earrings, a $500,000 cushion-cut diamond engagement ring from fiancé Channing Tatum, and several other silver rings from Blink Twice. The director began wearing the Jessica McCormack-designed ring shortly after her engagement to Tatum in October. She recently joked that preparing for a wedding and making a movie are equally hard. Needless to say, we can't wait to see what she and stylist Andrew Mukamal will cook up for the big day.

Kravitz eventually left the star-studded event with friend and collaborator Jack Antonoff in tow; two years ago, the two met regularly at Electric Lady to work on Kravitz's untitled divorce album. But during the press tour for Blink Twice, Kravitz told Esquire magazine that the solo project was on the back burner. I'm too anxious right now,” she said. I'm going neurotic.”

Which begs the question: in addition to being the daughter of rocker Lenny Kravitz, both Zoe and Antonoff are credited as collaborators on Taylor Swift's Midnights-era lead single “Lavender Haze.” As Kravitz later revealed in an interview with Esquire, Swift insisted that they do so after elements of a song Kravitz wrote for her were repurposed as the album's opening track. Perhaps Kravitz is meeting with Antonoff to try to repurpose more of her scrapped solo project for other artists.
