In May 2015, Hailee Steinfeld hit the red carpet for the premiere of her new movie, Barely Lethal, held at the ArcLight Cinemas in Hollywood.

Portraying an orphan named Megan Walsh (Agent 83) in the government-run Prescott Academy, she was joined by her co-star Sophie Turner. Becoming good friends on the set, Hailee would later introduce Sophie to her now-husband, Joe Jonas.

“I definitely got the, like, ‘Tell me about Joe Jonas’ call,” Hailee told Jimmy Fallon in October 2019.

“Sophie and I have been friends for years. She’s one of my favorite humans. And Joe, same. Joe and I worked together a couple of years ago, and he is also a wonderful person, and it worked! So, I’ll take credit for that, sure.”

At the premiere of Barely Lethal, it looked like Kanye West had styled the then 18-year-old actress, model, and singer.

For the premiere in Hollywood, Hailee came dressed in a mini dress from the David Koma Fall 2015 collection styled with Jennifer Meyer rings and Kurt Geiger heels. How do you like her pin-straight hair?

To the 2015 Billboard Music Awards, Hailee joined Lily Aldridge, Zendaya, and Taylor Swift in another interesting outfit consisting of a black-and-white crochet frock from the Givenchy Spring 2015 collection paired with black boots from the same French luxury brand.
