Glamour Meets Sparkle: Swank’s Exquisite Accessories
The Homesman star chose to forgo a necklace to complete her glamorous appearance, drawing attention to her décolletage.
Instead, Swank adorned herself with shimmering KWIAT 3.5-carat round brilliant-cut diamond stud earrings in platinum and a striking Fred Leighton Antique Ruby and Diamond Navette Cluster ring, adding a touch of sparkle to her ensemble.
Maintaining a timeless allure, she styled her light brunette locks in loose curls, cascading effortlessly over one shoulder, evoking a sense of Old Hollywood glamour.
The Insomnia actress opted for a soft and understated look for her makeup, enhancing her natural beauty with a hint of eyeshadow, flushed cheeks, and a glossy nude lip, ensuring all attention remained on her vibrant dress.
A Star-Studded Family Affair
Hilary Swank walked the red carpet alongside her husband, Philip Schneider, who looked effortlessly dapper in a grey suit paired with a black tie and a crisp white button-up shirt.
Two mutual friends introduced Swank and Schneider, and they dated for a year before getting engaged in 2016. They then quietly married in Redwoods, California, in August 2018.
The couple welcomed their twins in April last year, but Swank only recently revealed their names for the first time this month.

Ordinary Angels: A Beacon of Hope and Community
In the faith-based movie Ordinary Angels, Hilary Swank takes the lead as Sharon, a resilient yet struggling hairdresser, based on the true story chronicled in the 2023 memoir of the same name by Sharon Stevens Evans.
Discovering a newfound sense of purpose, Sharon crosses paths with Ed Schmitt, portrayed by Alan Ritchson, a widowed father from Kentucky grappling with the loss of his wife to a respiratory illness.
With two daughters suffering from a life-threatening liver disease, Ed’s youngest faces a critical health crisis, needing a liver transplant for survival.
In “Ordinary Angels,” Hilary Swank embodies a hairdresser who finds her purpose in rallying a community to save a critically ill girl, while Alan Ritchson portrays the desperate father fighting for his daughter’s life
Moved by a newspaper article in the Louisville Courier-Journal detailing Ed’s daughters, Sharon embarks on a mission to get the entire community together and raise funds for their mounting medical expenses.
The film, directed by Jon Gunn, features an ensemble cast including Tamala Jones, Amy Acker, Drew Powell, Skywalker Hughes, and Emily Mitchell.
Initially slated for release on October 13, the film’s debut was rescheduled to February 23 to avoid overlapping with Taylor Swift’s “The Eras Tour” blockbuster movie.
