Simone Ashley’s Nude Cutout Dress Was a Sultry Nod to “The Little Mermaid” Theme
The premiere for the live-action movie "The Little Mermaid" hit London on 15 May, and if there was one fashion trend to hit the aptly-coloured blue carpet, it was "under-the-sea chic". And "Bridgerton" star Simone Ashley, who plays Indira in the film as one of Ariel's sisters, served a subtly sexy take on the theme. Styled by Rebecca Corbin-Murray, the 28-year-old stood out in a nude cutout dress at the Odeon Luxe Leicester Square. The actor rocked the floor-length Victoria Beckham gown, which featured a keyhole cutout at the chest and entire wavy mesh panels down either side. The netted details were made even more striking by the seaweed-style streams of fabric at the bottom of the dress, which was a stylish nod to the theme. Ashley, who recently soft-launched her relationship with Tino K...
Simone Ashley’s Barbiecore Minidress Has a Plunging Lace Neckline
There's nothing we love more than a film mashup, and it appears that Simone Ashley got the memo. The actor stepped out at the LA premiere of live-action film, "The Little Mermaid" rocking the Barbiecore trend, inspired by the soon-to-be-released "Barbie" movie. Ashley wowed on the aptly ocean-coloured carpet in a fuschia pink micro minidress with dramatic train by Atelier Versace, and commanded attention amongst the tonal sea of blue-green looks. Styled by Rebecca Corbin-Murray, the "Bridgerton" star's ensemble was seriously striking. Not only is the bright Barbie pink set to be the colour of the summer with the upcoming Greta Gerwig release, but her dress silhouette made for a show-stopping style moment. The micro minidress was corseted at the top and featured off-the-shoulder straps, whi...

Simone Ashley Wows in Feathers and Bows at Tiffany & Co. Gala
Simone Ashley ruffled some fashion feathers in the best possible way as she stepped out on 9 June in a stunning pale-pink gown for the Tiffany & Co. “Vision & Virtuosity” exhibition’s opening gala. Walking the blue carpet at the Saatchi Gallery in London, the “Bridgerton” star oozed old-school Hollywood glamour as she hung out with costar Nicola Coughlan as well as fellow British actresses Daisy Edgar-Jones and Florence Pugh. Together with her stylist Rebecca Corbin-Murray, the 27-year-old wowed in a pale-pink gown from UK label 16Arlington, complete with chic spaghetti straps and a built-in corset – something she would be used to wearing thanks to the corseted “Bridgerton” costumes. Ashley accessorised her look with a dramatic feathered sh...
Bridgerton Tries to Add Some Substance to Its Decadent Style in Season 2: Review
The Pitch: When it premiered in December 2020, Netflix’s Bridgerton provided plenty of steamy romance and escapism, both of which were in short supply as the world prepared to enter the second year of the COVID-19 pandemic. Season 1 of the lush period drama, adapted from Julia Quinn’s Bridgerton book series, followed Daphne Bridgerton (Phoebe Dynevor) and Simon Basset (Regé-Jean Page), the reluctant Duke of Hastings, as they went from co-conspirators to marrieds, setting Regency-era London ablaze. Their exploits, and those of the rest of the ton, were chronicled by the acerbic (and anonymous) Lady Whistledown, whose influence at times rivaled that of the Queen (Golda Rosheuvel). The second season follows the tradition of Quinn’s books and shifts the focus to a different Bridgerton: this ti...
