On December 14, 2025, at the Linwood Dunn Theatre in Los Angeles, Amanda Seyfried arrived at the premiere of The Testament of Ann Lee in a look defined by restraint, precision, and quiet authority. This approach mirrored the spiritual gravity of her latest role.
💫 Jump to the Look:
Rather than relying on overt drama or embellishment, the actress chose a black Giorgio Armani high-neck ribbed gown, allowing impeccable tailoring and subtle texture to do the work. The result was a study in modern modesty: refined, deliberate, and striking in its simplicity.

In the film, Seyfried portrays Ann Lee, the 18th-century spiritual leader whose teachings would give rise to the Shaker movement—an intensely disciplined community shaped by faith, equality, and collective devotion. That sense of conviction carried seamlessly into her red-carpet appearance, reinforcing how closely the fashion moment was aligned with the story she came to tell.
Her performance earned nominations from both the Critics’ Choice Awards and the Golden Globe Awards, positioning The Testament of Ann Lee as one of the most closely watched prestige releases of the season.
Quiet Authority: Giorgio Armani’s Modern Modesty
Amanda’s Giorgio Armani dress looked straightforward at first, but its delicate yet striking details made it stand out. It had a fitted silhouette that hugged her slender frame, highlighting her enviable contours, while its high neckline and long sleeves kept the look classic and modest. These details, in my opinion, make sense for a film about inner conviction, discipline, and belief. Instead of using dramatic cuts or bold embellishments, the dress relied on shape, fabric, and finish.
Delicate ribbing ran throughout the fabric, adding texture and depth that kept the black from feeling flat or heavy. I especially loved how the sheer panels were seamlessly incorporated into the design. From a distance, they were barely noticeable, but up close, they revealed a hint of skin beneath the ribbing. I appreciated that they added visual interest, allowing the dress to make a quiet, elegant statement.

The gown’s mermaid skirt, falling close to the floor, added to its elegance. As Amanda moved, the fabric moved gently, giving the look a soft flow. This Armani dress is now on sale for $1,521 (from $1,688) at Farfetch.
Polished Restraint: Red Lip, Soft Waves & Tiffany & Co. Sparkle
Amanda’s beauty look followed the same approach. Her blonde hair was styled in smooth, side-parted waves that framed her face nicely, while her makeup was kept classic. She wore mascara and eyeliner to define her green eyes, and added a bold red lip for added warmth and confidence.
For a hint of sparkle, Amanda styled the all-black look with jewelry from Tiffany & Co. She wore a pair of earrings from the Blue Book 2023: Out of the Blue collection, featuring blue cuprian elbaite tourmalines, framed by custom-cut diamonds. She also wore a few rings, including the $55,000 Tiffany & Co. Schlumberger Stitches Ring that featured a tapestry of diamonds woven together.

Grounded Elegance: Aquazzura “Artiste” Pumps in Black Suede
Amanda paired her gown with the black Aquazzura “Artiste” pumps—a smart, timeless choice from the brand’s signature lineup, offered in multiple heel heights at retailers such as Farfetch and Mytheresa.
Made in Italy from soft suede, the shoes were sleek and polished, with a pointed toe that added elegance and an undulating, scalloped profile that introduced a delicate, feminine touch. I loved how the subtle curves softened the otherwise clean, structured lines of her gown!
The pumps perfectly complemented the dress, adding a subtle touch of sophistication and charm.
