Anne Hathaway Unveils Gucci Fringe Fantasy at Rio Premiere

Anne Hathaway leaned into playful elegance with a purple Gucci fringe dress—equal parts samba spirit and red carpet precision—at the Los Angeles premiere of Rio.

There’s something about Anne Hathaway in motion—especially when the motion is fringe. On April 10th, 2011, at the Los Angeles premiere of Rio, Hathaway didn’t just arrive; she shimmered, swayed, and stole the spotlight at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre in a purple silk Gucci dress that felt like a love letter to both Old Hollywood and animated exuberance.

The dress, confirmed to be a Gucci creation, featured delicate embellishments and a cascade of fringe that danced with every step. The silhouette was deceptively simple: sleeveless, knee-length, with a clean neckline that let the texture do the talking. But the real magic was in the movement—each strand catching light like a samba rhythm made visible.

She paired the look with strappy heels in a matching violet hue, keeping the accessories minimal and the focus squarely on the dress’s kinetic charm. Her hair, swept into a soft updo, nodded to 1940s screen sirens, while her makeup was fresh and unfussy—just a hint of plum on the lips to echo the dress’s palette.
