Rachel Zegler Stuns in Elie Saab at Castle Premiere • CelebMafia

Rachel Zegler captivates in custom Elie Saab gown at intimate Snow White premiere held at historic Spanish castle that inspired the original film.

Rachel Zegler brought fairy tale glamour to life at Wednesday’s scaled-back “Snow White” premiere in Segovia, Spain. The 23-year-old star transformed the historic Alcázar castle—the very inspiration behind Disney’s 1937 animated film—into her personal stage, performing the original song “Waiting On A Wish” as sunset painted the medieval backdrop.

Fashion aficionados couldn’t miss her breathtaking ensemble: a custom Elie Saab creation featuring intricate floral detailing and dramatic flowing train. Zegler completed her ethereal look with Jimmy Choo Max Silver Platform Sandals and a whimsical Judith Leiber Apple Sweetie Clutch—a perfect nod to her character.

This intimate gathering marks a significant departure from Disney’s typically lavish premieres. The studio opted for the UNESCO World Heritage site over traditional Hollywood or London venues, creating an exclusive setting for the $269.4 million production.

The premiere’s location carries special significance beyond just avoiding media attention. The Alcázar’s distinctive turrets and steep roofs directly influenced the iconic castle in the original Snow White film, creating a poetic full-circle moment for the franchise.

What’s your take on Disney choosing such a meaningful historical location for this premiere? Do you think more film events should embrace settings that connect to their stories, or do you prefer the glitz of traditional red carpets? We’d love to hear your perspective!
