Still glowing from her bridal spotlight, Hailee Steinfeld turned up at Paris Fashion Week in full crystal armor—an illusion gown that whispered seduction beneath velvet bows.
The designer of a woman’s wedding gown often becomes more than a name in a label—it’s a bond, an allegiance, a signature. And on July 7, at Paris Fashion Week, Hailee Steinfeld made it clear: her loyalty to Tamara Ralph isn’t ending at the altar.
Exactly one month after her Southern California wedding to Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen, Steinfeld flew to Paris to support the Australian couturier’s Fall/Winter 2025–26 runway show. She arrived minutes before the first look hit the catwalk, gliding into the venue in a breathtaking ensemble that echoed both star power and bridal afterglow.
Her choice? A sheer, rhinestone-laced illusion gown from Tamara Ralph’s Fall 2024 Couture collection—Look 7, to be exact. Styled once again by Rob Zangardi and Mariel Haenn, the creative duo behind her now-viral wedding wardrobe, the dress wrapped Steinfeld in a constellation of silver crystals suspended on nude mesh. Cascading cutouts carved into the bodice gave the high-shine glamour a sculptural edge, while tiered velvet bows added a wink of coquette drama. A sky-high slit revealed classic black pointed pumps—a nod to timeless contrast in an otherwise ethereal look.
Though she stayed true to the runway’s core styling, Steinfeld skipped the model’s hair bow in favor of oversize drop earrings and one other dazzling statement: her 4-carat engagement ring, reportedly worth over $100,000.
It’s the third time this year she’s stepped out in Tamara Ralph couture—each instance more intimate than the last. After red carpet turns at the Sinners premiere and the Vanity Fair Oscar Party, their fashion partnership crescendoed on May 31 at her wedding weekend. Across three events, Ralph dressed Steinfeld in a pearl-accented satin cocktail dress, a bespoke corseted gown, and a crystal-and-feather reception number. “I actually lost my breath,” Steinfeld wrote of the bridal moment in her Beau Society newsletter. “I’ve never felt more like myself and more beautiful.”
At the Paris show, that sentiment lingered in the air—evidence that the right designer doesn’t just dress a woman for one chapter, but writes across the margins of her whole narrative.
So, was this just another couture cameo—or the beginning of Hailee Steinfeld’s Tamara Ralph muse era?
