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.

For one of her first major red carpets, Ashley made a bold statement in a daring sequined skirt set.

Ashley counted herself as a member of the “PP Pink” crew when she wore this bright Valentino number by Pier Paolo Piccioli to the BAFTAs in 2022.
