Simone Ashley walked the red carpet at the 79th edition of the Venice Film Festival in an Armani Privé ensemble, styled by Rebecca Corbin-Murray. The Bridgerton 2 star posted pictures of her look on Instagram with the caption, “Last night in Venice.” Her bright red ensemble is an archival Giorgio Armani treasure from 2013. For the uninitiated, Armani Privé is the haute couture offering from fashion designer Giorgio Armani. She teamed the ensemble with jewels from Bulgari, shoes by Jimmy Choo, and Armani Beauty glam.

After Simone posted the pictures, her Bridgerton 2 costar Jonathan Bailey took to the comments section to praise her look and wrote, “ViscountYES.” Jonathan and Simone play Anthony Bridgerton and Kate Sharma in the series. At the end of season two, their characters marry each other and become Viscount and Viscountess Bridgerton. Hence, Jonathan Bailey’s comment.

Regarding Simone’s bright red Armani Privé look, it features a strapless wraparound tube top and a matching high-waist skirt. While the top accentuated Simone’s décolletage and featured gold and black rod embellishments on the back, the bottoms enhanced her svelte frame and had a straight fitting.

Simone accessorised the red outfit with a choker diamond necklace, matching ear studs, rings, high heels, and a black clutch. A sleek updo, subtle smoky eye shadow, black winged eyeliner, nude lip shade, defined brows, highlighter, and a hint of blush completed the star’s glam picks.
