Kerry Washington Wore Lanvin To The ‘Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery’ Fan Screening

Kerry Washington attended the Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery fan screening at New York’s Paris Theater, and for once, there’s no hesitation in calling this a win.

In a midnight-blue embellished dress from Lanvin’s Fall 2025 collection by Peter Copping, Kerry delivered a red carpet moment that felt confident, assured, and refreshingly on point for someone who likes to dress a season ahead.

Let’s be honest: Kerry’s red carpet record can be unpredictable. One night she’s sublime, the next she leaves you wondering how things veered off course. But this press tour? It’s finally showing consistency — and this look might be the strongest evidence yet.

The dress itself does most of the talking. The colour is rich and inky, catching the light like a midnight sky. It flatters her frame, skims the body beautifully, and crucially, amplifies her beauty.

Styled simply with Lanvin’s Pencil Cat bag, this is Kerry leaning into elegance without second-guessing herself — and when she does that, the results speak for themselves.

More of this, please.

Stylists: Rob Zangardi and Mariel Haenn.
