Diane Jenkins Abbott was recently spotted walking through the halls of the GCAC looking as gorgeous as ever. Susan Walters, who plays Diane on The Young and the Restless, has been chosen as our Soap Opera News Look of the Week for May 4-8. And, we really need to talk about this outfit because it was a total moment.
Playing the always-stylish Diane, Walters proved once again that soap fashion is just as memorable as the drama itself. The star of the show was her striking black-and-white midi dress. It featured an abstract brushstroke print that instantly caught the eye. The fitted silhouette gave her a sleek feel, while the cap sleeves and below-the-knee length kept everything sophisticated.
The Details Behind the Look
Her styling was kept simple in the best way possible. Susan’s hair was styled in soft waves with plenty of smooth volume. The warm brunette tone of her hair really softened the graphic print of the dress, while the side part framed her face beautifully.
She paired the dress with metallic silver pointed-toe heels that added just the right amount of shine. Her handbag tied everything together perfectly. She carried a structured silver crossbody bag with a metallic finish and a chain strap that matched her shoes.
For those who want the exact details, Diane’s dress is the Boat Neck Short Sleeve Ruched Waist Scuba Midi Dress by Donna Karan. Meanwhile, her bag is the Mini East/West Metallic Leather Shoulder Bag in Dark Silver by Strathberry.
Diane’s Fashion Moment on Y&R
Diane was dressed to the nines for a reason. She had a tense run-in with Victor Newman, who clearly had no interest in apologizing for what he did to Jack or her marriage.
Later, both Diane and Victor crossed paths with Patty Williams. We all know Patty had her own part to play in that yacht drama that caused such a rift between Diane and Jack.
About the Brand
It makes sense that Diane would choose a powerhouse brand like Donna Karan. Founded in 1984, the label is famous for its “Seven Easy Pieces” concept. It focuses on comfort and sophisticated style for the modern woman.
A huge shoutout goes to the hair, wardrobe, and makeup teams at The Young and the Restless. They really hit it out of the park with this complete look.
Where drama is a must, fashion is a plus!
