Hunter Schafer Pairs Her Sparkling Green Minidress With Chartreuse Boots

Reported by Harper's Bazaar.

Chartreuse is having its cultural moment, and the receipts are everywhere. According to Harper's Bazaar, the yellow-green shade — think highlighter ink, think acid wash, think the color of a forest right before a storm — has been moving through Saint Laurent, Simone Rocha, and Prada runway looks and landing on the bodies of Jennifer Lawrence, Emma Chamberlain, and Zoë Kravitz. It's not a trend anymore. It's a takeover.

Hunter Schafer showed up to Prada Mode at New York's Chelsea Hotel and made the case for chartreuse as the power move of the season. The centerpiece: a pair of beaded, floral-etched, under-the-knee boots pulled directly from Prada's Fall 2026 runway — block-heeled, sculptural-toed, and dripping in that particular shade of electric green that reads equal parts enchanted forest and controlled chaos. The effect was witchy in the best possible way.

The Rest of the Look Didn't Try to Keep Up

Schafer grounded the statement footwear in a sparkly green sequined minidress from Prada's 2024 archive — sleeveless, low-scooped, covered in multi-sized embellishments that created actual visual depth rather than just shine. She wore her hair loose in a clean blowout and carried a small satin drawstring pouch. Nothing competed. Everything landed.

The event itself was worth the outfit. Prada converted the legendarily storied Chelsea Hotel into a two-day private members club — open June 3 and 4 — built around Satellites II, an installation co-curated by Nicolas Winding Refn and Hideo Kojima. The programming ran deep: conversations, workshops, performances, dining. And when the first night wrapped, the after-party moved to Katz's Delicatessen, which is exactly the kind of New York contradiction that makes you love fashion again.

When the boots come directly from the runway, the outfit is the argument — and Schafer made it without saying a word.
