Check out Kerry Washington in a breathtaking Brandon Maxwell dress:
Washington wore the Brandon Maxwell Bridges maxi dress, Look 3 from the label’s Resort 2026 collection. The blush pink, floor-length dress featured ultra-thin spaghetti straps and a soft V-neckline, creating a streamlined, liquid-like silhouette. Its feminine texture contrasted beautifully with the black leather jacket draped off her shoulders.
The heavy texture of the leather provided a perfect visual weight to balance the light silk of the dress. The Golden Globe nominee completed her look with pointed-toe pumps and styled her hair in an elegant updo, with loose strands framing her face beautifully.
