Grab the vino, a cozy blanket, and your closest friends. The CW is rebooting Dynasty, but it’s nothing like you remember – and the series premiere (Wednesday, October 11, at 9/8C) is fast approaching.
Documenting the lavish lives of two upper-class families, the show delivers scandal, laughs, and powerful style. So what’s it all about? First, meet the one-percenters: The Carringtons epitomize old money and refuse to let the Colbys, an ambitious family of tech moguls, take the title of Atlanta’s elite.
But the feuding doesn’t stop there. When Fallon Carrington and her father Blake’s new fiancée, Cristal, realize they’re both up for COO at Carrington Companies, the diamond-adorned claws come out. Who will make it to the top? We’ll have to tune in to find out. Until then, we are sure about one thing: It’s a style showdown.
Fallon
Sharp blazers and wide-leg trousers rival her (even sharper) knack for business. With pops of metallic and sky-high stilettos, this confident fashionista has mastered the work-hard-play-hard balance.
Her Three Power Pieces: A menswear-inspired jacket, a flashy clutch, and a fuchsia lip.
Cristal
Unlike her totally tailored rival, Cristal’s approach is much softer. Think sugar-coated hues and bedazzled everything. She’s not afraid to show off her girly side at work – and that scores her major points in our book.
Her Three Power Pieces: Lacy pumps, an embellished Peter Pan collar, and anything pastel.
