Queen Latifah attended Thom Browne‘s fall 2023 show during New York Fashion Week yesterday, battling the cold in whimsical outerwear and square-toed dress shoes.

The rapper wore a lengthy puffer jacket in white with a graphic print featuring motifs channeling Herman Melville’s novel “Moby Dick.” The coat was belted, defining Latifah’s silhouette, and featured a puffy quilted quality.

Sticking to the classics, Latifah stepped onto the carpet in a classic pair of dress shoes in gray and white with thin white laces, the footwear offering the “The Equalizer” star a wide range of movement while traversing the flash of cameras. The formal footwear included short 2 to 3-inch squared heels and a streamlined silhouette with a satin finish.
