Since first auditioning for Mad Men at just six years old, Kiernan Shipka has grown up in the spotlight—and thus, on the red carpet. The actress established herself as a front row fixture as a youngster, cozying up to top luxury brands like Fendi, Dior (then under the direction of Raf Simons), and Miu Miu.
She’s developed a wide set of style signatures over time, characterized by plenty of fun, short silhouettes from brands like Delpozo and Marc Jacobs. As Shipka grew into her own and began to nab roles in more experimental projects like Longlegs and The Last Showgirl, her red carpet style evolved, too. While the star still loves bold colors and prints, she’s willing to toy around with high-cut leg slits and the occasional pop of sheer fabric.
