Bridgerton's Phoebe Dynevor period-dressed again for tonight's Gilded Glamour-themed Met Gala—but with a decidedly modern twist. It marks the actress's first time at the prestigious New York City fashion event. Dynevor
wore a sheer black peplum dress with a high leg slit by Louis Vuitton. Her hair was styled down in waves.
Ahead of the gala, Dynevor spoke to Harper's Bazaar about her feelings—and nervousness—about stepping out at the Met Gala for the first time.
“Fashion’s biggest night is an event I have followed for years (haven’t we all?), so it feels quite surreal, especially post-pandemic and all these events returning,” Dynevor said. “It’s one of fashion’s biggest nights that really celebrates the industry and champions creativity and self-expression. I haven’t been before, so I’m super excited and intrigued, also nervous, it’s a big carpet!”
With her glam tonight, “I’m lucky to be working with such a brilliant team that understands me and my style, but especially for events like this, they are always finding looks that are authentic to my aesthetic while still pushing me to be a bit daring,” Dynevor teased.
As for her look tonight, creating it was a collaborative process. “I work closely with the brilliant Nicky Yates—I don’t know what I would do without her!” Dynevor said. “I am also very lucky to work with Louis Vuitton. Nicolas [Ghesquière] is a genius, and I love how he creates such strong and empowering female silhouettes with each of his designs and collections.”
