The Young Hollywood collection was released today with a one hour delay compared to the time announced yesterday on Instagram. The release was supposed to happen at 6:00 PM CEST, but it actually was released at 7:00 PM CEST (with a few minutes of delay). At least they added a countdown on Instagram, so we could check the correct release time.

At first, the store appeared with three new floors, showcasing outfits inspired by the Grammy Awards 2026 and the Golden Globes 2026. However, some players noticed that there were more items listed in the catalogue. Shortly after, Stardoll posted on Instagram explaining that the fourth floor had a technical issue and it was released almost one hour after the official store launch.

 

Another issue in this release was related to the special offer Lady Gaga Dress announced yesterday. For a short time, the dress was mistakenly released as part of the collection and was available for purchase, but it’s no longer possible to get it now.

What are your thoughts on the outfit choices? I personally bought more pieces than I thought I would, and I really expected them to include the Golden Globe statuette this time, especially since we’ve had other award items in past releases. Now we’ll have to wait and see if it shows up next year.

Today’s Young Hollywood release, as teased, only contained outfits worn at the 2025 VMAs. 

The store brought three new floors to Starplaza, showcasing looks from celebrities that were highly mentioned in the Royalty club. Not every suggested look was included, but they made sure to feature the most requested ones. We can see outfits inspired by Sabrina Carpenter, Ariana Grande, Zara Larsson, Tyla, Taylor Momsen and more. There are only two male looks, inspired by Conan and Yungblud, with Conan’s outfit also getting a female version, I must say it looks really cute and is one of my favorites. 

You can see all the real-life looks below:

 Did you like any of these? Which looks would you have wanted to see included in the release?

As we could predict based on the Young Hollywood release schedule, with the VMAs that took place on September 7th, today we got a new top-up offer to get ready for tomorrow’s YH release. The promotion is the one we already know: 50% more Stardollars included in all sd packs, plus a special offer item that also comes with the Superstar packs (but not with the cheapest sd pack). This offer with the 50% extra Stardollars and the special item is valid until September 21st.

The free item this time is a lipstick bag, inspired by the one Doja Cat wore. I really hope we don’t see the dress she wore tomorrow in the store, since it’s already available in Starplaza at The JetSet store. But since the bag was given as the freebie, I assume they won’t add more pieces from this specific outfit. 

Which looks are you expecting to see in tomorrow’s release? As the Emmys took place on September 17th, I really thought they might delay this release by a week to include items from both events.

Last Friday, May 16th, we had a Young Hollywood release, but the store came with some "surprises". One of them was the Sabrina Carpenter platforms that were shown in the store, but everyone was unable to grab them to buy and they were also missing from the catalog.

After receiving a lot of messages questioning about the shoes, Vulacano, who illustrated all pieces from Sabrina's outfit, said that he was aware of the issue and would ask the Stardoll staff to fix it.

The thing is, they managed to make the shoes available, but different from what we were expecting. Instead of adding them to the Plaza, Stardoll sent them as a free gift to everyone. To get it, you only had to log in to your account. Sadly, I have no idea until when, or if, they’re still gifting it. Hope you guys had the chance to get it!

After a 1-hour delay due to technical issues, the store finally went live, but not without some glitches: missing items on mannequins, pieces only available via the catalogue, others not showing up there at all and even a case where an item appeared in store but couldn’t be purchased anywhere. Unfortunately, most of the looks did not include the jewelry or bags the celebrities wore to the event.

Still, the outfit selections were well chosen, and Vulacano has hinted that more Met Gala looks might appear in regular stores soon.

As a small apology for the delay, Stardoll made the golden Gigi Hadid dress available in 3,000 copies for just 5sd — a true bargain!
