A new creative era has officially kicked off on The Young and the Restless with the new writing team at the helm—and we are already here for it. Another thing we’re loving is that Phyllis Summers is bringing serious fashion heat to Genoa City right along with the drama. This week, Michelle Stafford stepped onto the screen in a fitted cranberry top paired with a sleek black leather skirt that had us hitting pause immediately.
The combination was sharp, effortless, and bold enough to earn Soap Opera News‘ Look of the Week for November 9–13, 2026.
Let’s take a closer look!
Chic and Petite
In scenes set at her new venture, the Genoa City Athletic Club, Phyllis wore the San Vicente Top in Cranberry by NIA—a fitted, long-sleeve jersey piece designed with an asymmetrical neckline and a subtle cutout across the chest. The deep cranberry shade pops on screen, while the asymmetrical cut gives the top just enough edge without feeling overdone.
She paired it with the Milann Skirt by L’Agence, a black leather midi featuring gold buttons down the front. The structured silhouette balances the fitted jersey top, mixing the toughness of the leather with a tailored, polished finish.
Polished Accessories
Phyllis kept her jewelry minimal. She opted for gold earrings that tied right into the button detailing on her skirt.
Sometimes, keeping things simple works best.
It’s the exact kind of look that works just as well in a boardroom as it does at dinner.
Why Phyllis Earns This Week’s Spotlight
Phyllis has always had a wardrobe with plenty of personality, and this outfit is another example of that.
She may have plenty going on in Genoa City, but that doesn’t mean her wardrobe has to suffer!
For the flattering fit, beautiful colors and polished styling, Phyllis Summers earns our Look of the Week.
We also have to give credit to the hair, wardrobe and makeup teams behind the scenes at The Young and the Restless for bringing the entire look together.
What do you think of Phyllis’ outfit? Would you wear the complete look, or would you style the cranberry top and leather skirt separately? Is she your look of the week? Let us know in the comments!
