Add fashion icon to the long list of accomplishments accrued by Ayo Edebiri and Colman Domingo , as both stars are now front and center for Neiman Marcus’ 2024 fall campaign. Starring in an ad directed by visual artist and photographer Tyler Mitchell, Edebiri plays a young woman faced with the predicament of her hat blowing off in the wind. Thankfully this occurs right outside a Neiman Marcus storefront, providing her with an opportunity to not only replace the item, but boost her confidence and sense of flare.

Though the short film is shot in color, it carries an old-school charm, maintaining a 4:3 aspect ratio and containing no dialogue outside interstitials that provide it written out à la a silent film. As Edebiri’s character enters the Neiman Marcus storefront, she is transported to a luxurious world of fashion and beauty with stunning models guiding her to the hat section and immediately plopping one that suits her atop her head.

It’s the perfect showcase for an improvisational talent such as Edebiri, but Domingo also seems to be having a blast playing opposite her. As they land upon the perfect green cap for Edebiri’s .
