Hunter Schafer’s Retro-Futurism at Comic-Con In Marc Jacobs

It’s that time of year when the red carpet goes quiet as everyone recuperate, and if you’ve been wondering why I haven’t covered the 2026 San Diego Comic-Con, it’s because so many of the photos feature celebrities sitting behind a desk. Those images rarely do a look justice.

Thankfully, today was different.

Hunter Schafer stepped onto the Comic-Con stage to promote Blade Runner 2099, the upcoming Prime Video series in which she stars alongside Michelle Yeoh, and we finally got a proper head-to-toe fashion moment.

I know many of you will be doing a double take at the sight of the actress in this Marc Jacobs Spring 2027 ensemble, featuring a sheer organza shirt layered over a bodysuit, sheer shorts cinched with a chunky chain belt.

But I have to admit, I kinda like it.

Out of context, it is an unexpected choice, but for Blade Runner 2099 it makes perfect sense. The translucent textures, saturated colour palette and almost plastic-like finish give the look a retro-futuristic quality that feels entirely at home in the Blade Runner universe. As someone who grew up in the 1980s, there was something wonderfully nostalgic about it too. It doesn’t recreate the original film’s costumes, but it captures that same vision of the future imagined decades ago.

I know some of you will already be adding this to your WDOTY list, but Hunter completely sold this look to me. If this is ground zero for the Blade Runner 2099 press tour, I’m intrigued to see where the method dressing goes from here.

Stylist: Dara Allen.
