Sofia Richie and Elliot Grainge’s relationship has come a long way since their early outings in 2021. The couple, who married in April 2023 following a 2022 engagement, welcomed their first child—a daughter named Eloise Samantha Grainge—in May 2024.
Back in those early days of their romance, Sofia was frequently spotted turning Los Angeles into her personal runway, including a chic date night at Craig’s in West Hollywood with Grainge, the founder and CEO of 10K Projects and son of Universal Music Group’s CEO.

Showing off her style prowess, Lionel Richie’s daughter turned heads in a white crop top that put her enviably toned abs on display.
She paired the tiny garment with black leather straight-leg pants and layered the look with a “Marleen” wool coat from Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen’s The Row.
Understated yet chic, her double-breasted coat features a darted waist, shoulder pads, and an ankle-grazing straight hem.

For her date night beauty look, Scott Disick’s ex-girlfriend wore minimal makeup and let her long blonde tresses fall loose around her shoulders.
She carried her evening essentials in a gray Hermès Pochette Kelly bag and elevated her minimalist outfit with statement rings, large silver hoop earrings, and two silver collarbone necklaces.
Ensuring safety, Sofia wore a black Hello-printed face mask from her father Lionel Richie’s merchandise.

Standing at 5ft 4 ½ (163.8 cm) and wearing a US shoe size 8.5, Sofia knows how to select footwear that flatters her frame.
For this outing, she elevated her minimalist ensemble with a pair of Balenciaga snake-embossed leather mules, designed with pointed toes, a squared-off back, and sleek 3-inch metal heels that elongate her silhouette while adding a touch of modern edge.
