The late, great Diane Keaton received a touching tribute to her indelible style on the runway of Vogue World 2025 in Hollywood on Sunday two weeks after her shock passing at age 79.
Next Model Betsy Gaghan strutted through Paramount Pictures Studios in a similar menswear-inspired look the eccentric tastemaker donned for her Oscar-winning performance in her ex Woody Allen’s 1977 satirical rom-com, Annie Hall.
The 24-year-old nepo baby of Oscar-winning screenwriter Stephen Gaghan said modeling Diane’s white blouse, dotted necktie, brown corduroy vest, and pleated khaki trousers ‘an honor’ via Instastory.
Betsy wore minimal make-up and completed her retro attire with a tennis racket stuffed inside a white tote before topping her messy locks with one of Keaton’s signature wide-brimmed hats.
As Gaghan walked down the catwalk, the Fashion First author’s voice could be heard singing Carmen Lombardo and John Jacob Loeb’s 1945 standard Seems Like Old Times on the loudspeaker just like at the end of the movie.
The 89-year-old disgraced director once revealed he was forced to intervene when Annie Hall costume designer Ruth Morley clashed with his onscreen leading lady’s ideas for her jazz-crooning titular character.

‘The costume lady on Annie Hall said, “Tell her not to wear that. She can’t wear that. It’s so crazy,”‘ Woody (born Allen Konigsberg) recalled in a 1992 interview.
‘And I said, “Leave her. She’s a genius. Let’s just leave her alone, let her wear what she wants.”‘
And that workplace practice continued on countless other films as Diane told People last year: ‘Normally I let the costumer pick from my closet so I am focused on making sure I get back all of my personal items, to be honest.’
But when WWD asked Keaton (born Hall) if she was surprised about the lasting fashion impact of Annie Hall last year, she scoffed: ‘Yes. I think it is a credit to the movie… not me.’
On Vogue’s Instagram video of the memorable moment, Running Point showrunner and rom-com connoisseur Mindy Kaling commented: ‘Incredible.’
‘We needed this!’ Instagram user @halanscott agreed. ‘What a legacy Diane Keaton left behind.’
Insagram user @kristinayensan commented: ‘Beautiful. Like her ghost walking through the lot, her spirit remembering all that was and still finding joy. Love this.’
‘Oh, this just gave me chills,’ Instagram user @blend_in_stand_out wrote.
‘A talent and personality like Diane deserves to be referenced and resurfaced in every which way.’
And Instagram user @angelica_xtina posted a gif of Diane saying ‘thank you.’

The two-time Golden Globe winner was reportedly cremated three days after her October 11th death from primary bacterial pneumonia after struggling with illness for a while.
Diane was said to have left behind a $100M fortune and she’s survived by her two adult children – daughter Dexter, 29; and son Duke, 25 – whom she adopted in 1996 and 2001.
Condolences streamed in from Keaton’s A-list colleagues Leonardo DiCaprio, Jane Fonda, Reese Witherspoon, Sarah Jessica Parker, Goldie Hawn, Kate Hudson, Viola Davis, Bette Midler, Francis Ford Coppola, and Rita Wilson.
Keaton was all smiles beside her beloved Golden Retriever Reggie in her final Instagram post uploaded April 11 in honor of National Pet Day.
But the First Christmas singer hadn’t made a public appearance since April 2024 when she glammed up alongside Thom Browne at his Mr. Chow event in Beverly Hills.
Diane’s final screen appearance was portraying Nora opposite Kathy Bates and Alfre Woodard in Castille Landon’s 2024 senior comedy Summer Camp, which was poorly received and flopped at the box office by only earning $2.5M.
Keaton starred in eight total Woody Allen movies, but she first found fame playing Michael Corleone’s (Al Pacino) second wife Kay Adams in The Godfather trilogy (1972-1990).
