Leslie Bibb Has a Major Fashion Moment in Venice Film Festival

Venice will always give us elegance, with the occasional dose of drama, and the latter was firmly on the agenda for Leslie as she stepped out in an ArdAzAei Fall 2026 Couture gown from The Nightingale’s Rose collection.

At first, it’s the electric-blue brushstrokes against the black chiffon that catch the eye, but as the gown opens into the skirt, the flowers begin to reveal themselves. It’s a design that becomes more impressive the longer you look at it.

This is exactly the kind of couture I want to see in Venice. There’s drama in the construction, colour, volume and train, yet the chiffon keeps the gown light as Leslie moves along the red carpet.

And Leslie is selling every inch of it. She knew this dress was the moment and let it do its job by keeping the styling to a minimum.

This was destined for a major red carpet, and Venice proved to be the perfect setting.

Stylist: Jeanann Williams.
