Rachel Zegler is fully embracing her princess era, and her red carpet look for the New York City premiere of Spellbound proves it. Ahead of her highly anticipated role as Snow White in the live-action Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (set to release in March 2025), Zegler is already serving up royal looks, this time in a whimsical and dramatic design from Harris Reed’s Spring/Summer 2025 Ready-to-Wear collection.
For the event, Zegler chose a striking white minidress adorned with 3D black roses, a design element that felt both regal and enchanting. The dress, featuring dramatic proportions and intricate details, was a showstopper on the red carpet. The sculptural hourglass silhouette flared out at the hips, highlighting Reed’s signature use of bold lines and volume. The angular bodice featured oversized lapels that cascaded down her sides, giving the dress an almost architectural feel. The sleeves were tucked into slouchy gloves, adding to the avant-garde, whimsical aesthetic.
What truly made Zegler’s look unforgettable were the three-dimensional black roses that covered the dress. These floral motifs, which are often symbolic of rebirth and transformation, were delicately arranged with trailing vines, adding an element of fantasy and romance. The roses, paired with Zegler’s dark, glossy hair styled in a bun with curtain bangs framing her face, created a striking contrast that further emphasized the dramatic, fairytale-inspired vibes of the ensemble.
To complete the look, Zegler wore black pumps with silver chains wrapped around her ankles, tying the outfit together with a touch of modern edge. The entire ensemble was a masterful blend of fantasy and fashion, marking a bold new chapter in the actress’s evolving style.
Black roses, historically symbolic of mourning, strength, and rebirth, added a layer of depth to the ensemble, making it the perfect choice for an evening celebrating Spellbound, a movie about a young princess who must break a powerful curse to save her kingdom. If this look is any indication, Rachel Zegler is not only stepping into her role as a princess on-screen but also in the world of fashion. Consider me officially on board with this bold, enchanting new era.
