Nicola Coughlan endorsed her “Bridgerton” character’s dress code at the 2022 Met Gala, and she was perfectly on theme. Clad in a pink-and-black Richard Quinn ball gown, the actress transformed into a vision of royal elegance in an ensemble Penelope Featherington would wear in a heartbeat. The floor-sweeping dress featured dramatic mutton sleeves, a sweetheart-neckline corset, and a voluminous waist spilling into a train behind her – all elements that recalled Victorian-era dressing.

The billowing design was embellished with floral appliqués and feathers that subtly nodded to her character’s feather quill pen. Coughlan accessorized with opera gloves, a crystal bracelet matching with crystal studs, and a pair of rings. Her blond hair, parted in the middle, allowed for a full view of her pink eyeshadow and lip gloss.

She was joined by other “Bridgerton” cast members, including Simone Ashley, who donned a cropped corset top and skirt with a train; Phoebe Dynevor, who opted for a sheer black Louis Vuitton gown; and Regé-Jean Page, who looked dapper in a velvet blazer and trousers.
