Jessica hosted the event and she arrived in a custom Iris van Herpen gown. The design had Van’s signature sculptural details: a black gown with a set of large angel wings hanging at the edge of each shoulder. The black piece had a net like or open wave pattern, letting us see the white dress layered beneath it. From her hip, a satin skirt flowed all the way down which merged with the wings behind her.  She completed it with a chignon, black heels and pin earrings.

Styled by Van Herpen, the actress showed up in a dress the label called “Eclipse”. It was a black-and-white. The piece was made from hand-stitched white spheres with black outlines. Each sphere was cut in different sizes and placed on top one another to give a 3D effect. She paired it with yellow-green pointed heels.
