      Established in 2010 by designer Jonathan Simkhai, the Los Angeles-based label Simkhai has created a short film inspired by Hollywood and themed for the holiday season, featuring actress Juliette Lewis. The film, titled Dear Juliette, showcases Lewis in the Dakota Gown and Love Knot Shoes from Simkhai's 2025 holiday collection as she reads a letter from a secret admirer, reminiscent of a missed connection with Santa Claus. The gown boasts an embellished halter neckline and a straight, sculptural silhouette, paired with low-heeled, pointed-toe suede slingbacks featuring a silver-tone knot detail. Throughout the film, additional items from the collection are highlighted, including the Gianni coat, Monet clutch, River bag, and Vixen shoes.
