Hailey Bieber infused her sartorial agenda with a gothic twist on February 11, as she graced the premiere of Wuthering Heights in Sydney, Australia. The skincare mogul understood the assignment as she stepped out in a daring lace ensemble that subtly nodded to an era defined by whisper-thin lace, sculpted corsetry, and sensual silhouettes.
The 29-year-old donned a sheer, black dress that was crafted from intricate lace embroidery. The garment featured elegant fluted sleeves and a panelled skirt that flared out into a mini train. Hailey teamed the dress with a matching tulle bra, which featured a deep, plunging neckline. The sultry look was completed with a pair of open-toe stilettos.
Hailey kept things minimal with no jewellery with the exception of her diamond wedding ring. Her toasted-almond hued locks were left down in soft waves, while her makeup was left natural and radiant, courtesy of a rosy cheek and nude-stained lip.
The beauty founder's daring ensemble arrives after a year where the naked dress peppered the saratrial set. Standout moments included Margot Robbie's jeweled custom Armani Privé look, Dakota Johnson and Demi Moore’s lace creations by Gucci, and Lily Allen’s striking Coleen Allen 'revenge dress'.
At its core, the trend is defined by its barely-there materials, sheer mesh, metallic knits, chainmail, lace, and airy organza all play a part in its ethereal appeal.
Hailey is currently in Australia to celebrate the expansion of her beauty brand, Rhode, into the market. The Rhode founder took to Instagram on January 8 to announce the exciting news with a striking black-and-white promotional image.
"Hi Australia + New Zealand," the caption read. "The world of Rhode is on the way. We're so happy to announce that our lineup of curated everyday essentials is coming to Australia and New Zealand very soon. Starting February 12th at 6am AEDT, our complete collection on rhodeskin.com will ship to both countries. We're also incredibly excited to partner exclusively with @meccabeauty in Australia and New Zealand. On February 12th, you’ll be able to shop Rhode online and at MECCA’s Bourke Street and George Street flagship locations, followed by most stores on February 13th."
"It's been such a treat to grow our community around the globe and bring Rhode into the daily routines of so many people. thank you for all your continued love and support—we have so much more to look forward to together."
For her day Down Under, Hailey opted for a cropped, belted trench by Magda Butrym, styled with heels from her go-to label, The Row.
