In Bridgerton, Simone Ashley is a viscountess through her marriage to Anthony Bridgerton. But in real life, you’d be forgiven for mistaking her for a modern-day princess. With a wardrobe full of dreamy sheer gowns and dazzling embellished looks, Ashley commands every red carpet she steps on with a quiet regality.
Since emerging as Bridgerton’s “Diamond of the season,” in 2022, Ashley has gone on to make a name for herself in the fashion world. She’s worn top brands like Valentino, Versace, and Prada, and has a special preference for romantic silhouettes done with modern finishes—think a tea-length dress adorned with sparkling pailettes or a ladylike tea-length look in a completely sheer fabric. No wonder she was cast in The Devil Wears Prada 2. Here, Simone Ashley’s best red carpet moments.
