The show offers a behind-the-scenes look at her life, career, and family, including her close relationship with younger sister Ashtin Earle.

Ahead of the September 4 premiere, the sisters brought their contrasting styles to the New York City press tour—and even their height difference helped give the looks distinctly different proportions. Alix stands around 5 feet 6 inches (1.68 m), while the younger Ashtin is noticeably taller at approximately 5 feet 8½ inches (1.74 m).

From Alix’s vintage Roberto Cavalli and Manolo Blahnik pumps to Ashtin’s darker Y2K styling and towering Dior platforms, their footwear only emphasized the contrast between their approaches to fashion.
Alix Earle Channels Y2K Glamour in Vintage Roberto Cavalli and Sleek Black Pumps
Alix Earle leaned into Y2K glamour while leaving Netflix HQ, wearing a vintage Roberto Cavalli dress with classic black pumps.
The sleek silhouette kept the footwear understated while adding polish. They featured a classic pointed toe, low-cut vamps, and slim stiletto heels. She kept the shoes simple, letting the dress’s elaborate print and details take center stage.

Alix Earle paired the pumps with a black printed dress from Roberto Cavalli’s 2000s collection, covered in intricate white paisley and ladybug motifs. The busy pattern gave the dress a vintage feel, while the fitted silhouette highlighted her figure before falling to just below the knees.
It also had a halter-style neckline with leopard-print trim, adding another print to the mix. Two ring details sat at the center of the plunging neckline, adding an eye-catching accent to the otherwise intricate print.
Earle wore her blonde hair in loose waves that framed her face, while soft makeup, defined lashes, and rosy lips completed the look.

Ashtin Earle Goes Monochrome in a Sheer Purple Dress and Sculptural Pumps
Walking alongside her sister Alix, Ashtin Earle went for a darker, romantic take on Y2K style, pairing a sheer purple dress with matching pumps and vintage-inspired accessories.
Wearing head-to-toe purple can be tricky, but I liked how she committed to the color. She opted for purple suede pumps with a high, glove-like topline that hugged the foot, giving the classic style a more modern shape. Cone-shaped heels added a contemporary edge, making the pumps look more fashion-forward.

Ashtin took a much bolder approach than her sister, in a sheer purple dress with ruffled shoulder straps and a flouncy knee-length skirt. Upon closer look, the dress was covered in newspaper-style text and graphic prints, giving the romantic silhouette a grungier, vintage feel. The see-through material revealed her black underwear underneath, adding a sexy contrast to the silhouette.
Earle fully embraced the dark aesthetic with a chunky, antique-style choker adorned with dangling purple teardrop-shaped crystal beads.
Her dark nail polish, defined black eyeliner, and neutral lip all added to the Y2K-inspired look, while her messy, tousled bun and loose strands framing her face added to the throwback feel.

Alix Earle Goes All White in Tory Burch and Pointed Stiletto Pumps
In another press appearance, Alix Earle went for a simple, head-to-toe white summer look.
She chose another pair of classic pumps, this time in white, with pointed toes and towering stiletto heels for extra height and a polished finish.
The monochromatic footwear felt familiar for Earle, who previously paired glossy white Jimmy Choo “Brigitte” mules with an ivory Staud look for the March 2026 launch of Reale Actives. Here, the pointed pumps were even more streamlined, disappearing into the all-white palette rather than competing with the oversized yellow flower on her Tory Burch top.

Up top, Earle wore a fitted ribbed white Tory Burch tank top accented with a large yellow flower at one shoulder. I loved how the oversized floral detail added a playful touch to the simple white top; its bright yellow color and bold size naturally drew attention and made it the outfit’s focal point.
She paired it with a high-waisted ivory column midi skirt that fell to mid-calf, creating a long, streamlined silhouette.
Earle wore her blonde hair loose in soft waves, which matched the summery feel of her outfit. Oversized dark sunglasses added a little retro glamour, while a simple watch kept her accessories understated and polished.

Ashtin Earle Takes Y2K Whimsigoth to Jimmy Choo’s Fishnet Booties
Ashtin Earle embraced Y2K whimsigoth style again, this time pairing soft pastel tones and playful patterns with moody accessories. I honestly loved the mix, which made the look feel nostalgic.
For her footwear, Earle wore Jimmy Choo’s “Leanne” booties, adding a dose of dark glamour to the look. Made from black velvet, they featured a high V-cut vamp and pointed toes, giving the silhouette a sleek architectural shape.
What really made them stand out was the dotted fishnet panel wrapped around the foot, creating a sheer, textured layer over the velvet. The mesh extended up the ankle and was gathered with a drawstring-style strap that tied at the front, adding an unusual detail to the otherwise sharp silhouette. The booties were set on 3-inch stiletto heels, adding height and a slim finish.

Earle balanced the dark shoes with a pastel outfit, starting with a nude-pink bodysuit with high-cut hips. Its clean, form-fitting shape worked nicely against the volume of her skirt, which featured a crinkled peach overlay decorated with ruffled rosettes. The skirt then transitioned into an asymmetrical black-and-white polka-dot handkerchief hem, finished with more peachy rosette details.
I loved her vintage-inspired black organza ribbon choker, tied in a bow at the front, which pushed the look further into whimsigoth territory. A shiny black cuff, dark nail polish, and oversized sunglasses added more attitude, while her high bun and loose face-framing strands brought the Y2K styling together.

Alix Earle Elevates All-Black Leather With Vintage Manolo Blahnik Pumps
Alix Earle was spotted leaving the SiriusXM studios that same day in an all-black ensemble, and her shoe choice really caught my attention. Instead of another pair of basic pumps, she chose vintage Manolo Blahnik heels with a vibrant pink accent that broke up the monochromatic look.
The pumps were crafted from black leather, with pink trim along the inner edges and lining for a pop of color. A delicate pink leather ribbon crossed the vamp and tied into a small bow, bringing a feminine touch to the sharp design.
They also featured pointed toes, scalloped vamps, and a d’Orsay silhouette that exposed the sides of her feet for a more streamlined shape.
It’s a construction that has long been part of Manolo Blahnik’s celebrity appeal: Cameron Diaz wore the designer’s similarly pointed “Tayler” d’Orsay pumps with a fitted leather dress at The Other Woman premiere in 2014. Alix’s archival pair was more playful, with slim buckled ankle straps and delicate pink ribbon detailing softening the sharp silhouette.

Earle paired the vintage pumps with a fitted black satin corset top featuring horizontal ruching across the bust and thin shoulder straps. The slightly glossy fabric added some texture to the all-black look, while the ruching gave the top more shape. She paired it with a high-waisted black leather pencil skirt that hugged her figure and fell just above the knee, keeping the silhouette sleek.
Oversized tinted sunglasses completed the outfit, adding a strong, slightly dominatrix-inspired edge.

Ashtin Earle Towers in Dior Platform Pumps and a Gothic LBD
Ashtin Earle matched her sister in black, but took the look in a darker, gothic-punk direction, mixing a dramatic dress with chunky platforms and layered silver jewelry.
Her shoes appeared to be Dior, featuring thinly pleated leather that added texture to the sleek black design. They had rounded toes, chunky platforms, and slim ankle straps, while the d’Orsay silhouette revealed the contours of her feet.
These pumps were set on towering block heels about 4 inches tall, tapering slightly toward the base.

Earle paired the platform pumps with a flattering LBD featuring shoulder straps and a daring sweetheart neckline. The fitted corset-style bodice defined her waist before opening into a voluminous parachute-style mini skirt. Dramatic ruffles gathered around the skirt created a sculptural shape, giving the simple LBD a much more dramatic finish.
She wore her dark hair in a high, textured bun, with long, straight tendrils falling around her face to enhance the Y2K feel. She finished the look with a heavy, layered silver charm necklace made of multiple chains and eclectic, gothic-inspired charms, adding an edgy grunge element to the feminine dress.
