Rachel Zegler attends The Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute benefit gala celebrating the opening of the "In America: A Lexicon of Fashion" exhibition, in New York
2021 MET Museum Costume Institute Benefit Gala, New York, United States - 13 Sep 2021
I am SURE that the press roll introducing Rachel to the world was very very VERY very carefully orchestrated -- as it should be, given the profile and cost of this movie -- and making her big public debut the Met Gala was a savvy and wise call. She also looks GREAT in this gown; she wears a lot of Dior but this is one of the best.

This is reasonable! (The lighting in this shot is weird, which is not her fault!)

Rachel Zegler
'The Many Saints of Newark' film premiere, Arrivals, New York, USA - 22 Sep 2021
She's got these shoes in various colors, which is a wise call from the styling team. They're not too tough to walk in. This outfit is fine! (This is the Many Saints of Newark premiere and this is totally what you wear to the screening of a movie you're not in.)

Dior show, Arrivals, Spring Summer 2021, Paris Fashion Week, France - 28 Sep 2021
I think the veiled beret is a step too far but I also know that when the people at Dior hand you a veiled beret at their fashion show, you put it on!

Rachel Zegler
15th Annual God's Love We Deliver Golden Heart Awards, Arrivals, New York, USA - 18 Oct 2021
Also reasonable! She wears a lot of Michael Kors, which feels like a smart fit -- a classic American designer, a little preppy, not too complicated or out there.

Carolina Herrera ALSO seems like a good call, although I wish she'd gotten a gown we hadn't seen already!

So far, she hasn't worn a ton of patterns -- hopefully, we see more of them during awards season!
