Given that Supriya Ganesh is starring in one of the buzziest shows of the moment—as Dr. Samira Mohan on The Pitt, duh!—it may be surprising to hear that the actor marked her very first New York Fashion Week this season. Yesterday, the actor hit up the Michael Kors fall 2026 show, amongst fellow celebrities such as Dakota Fanning and Mary J. Blige in the front row. “I remember watching this event take over the city as an outside (envious) observer, so I’m soaking it all in,” Ganesh says, post-show. “I really love fashion as an expression of self, so seeing the variety of looks and styles across the runways is so fun for me.”
Talk about a great way to mark her first NYFW: There was plenty of glamour to take in at Michael Kors. “It was a gorgeous, gorgeous show,” says Ganesh. “There was a lovely interpolation between clean lines, but also flowing silhouettes. I loved the color palettes of grey, red, and blue.” Though it was hard to pinpoint favorite looks, the star did eye a few standouts coming down the catwalk. “I remember being completely taken by the second look, and also a belted leather trench coat,” she says. “The beauty also stood out to me—so many fresh bold red lips!”
Of course, given her front-row status, Ganesh also had her own outfit to consider. She says she wanted to lean into classic elegance, but also go all-in on a sprightly color choice, slipping into a pretty pink monochromatic look. “I instantly gravitated towards this pink ensemble in my fitting,” says Ganesh. “I loved that it was drapey—almost like it fell from the sky and landed perfectly on whoever was wearing it. The belt was interesting, structurally, as well! I don’t think I’ve seen one like that before—I love something that looks intentionally undone.”
