Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and the rest of the Twilight cast are featured in the December issue of In Style. The vampire gang are captured by Sasha Eisenman in [stylish outfits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/winter-2025-campaign) that contrast their movie character’s fashion sensibility.

“In the movie, I wear a lot of layers, like a big jacket to look more burly and bear-like,” explains Kellan Lutz. “I love wearing old-fashioned stuff, like top hats and bow ties and striped suits.”

What about everybody’s favorite vampire? Robert Pattinson admits, “I don’t want to look trendy, so I try to find clothes where somebody wouldn’t be able to say, ‘Oh, you’re a cool guy’. I do like the ‘expensive but disheveled’ thing if I am going out.”

Kristen Stewart confessed her love for the [white Helmut Lang tuxedo jacket](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxury-menswear-campaign) and Zac Posen shirt she wore (images 3+4), “I love women’s clothes fashioned after men’s clothes. You definitely feel more feminine because you look better in the clothes than the guys do!”

But Stewart also loved the [ultra feminine Temperley London gown](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mcqueen-holiday-2025) she wears in image 8, “I feel like a Greek god in this. Like Zeus’s wife!”
