Celebrities Front Row at Dior Pre-fall 2024: Anya Taylor-Joy, Rosamund Pike, Rachel Zegler and More
Less than a week after sponsoring the Brooklyn Museum’s Artists Ball gala fundraiser, Dior was back at the museum, with even more friends of the house in tow. The brand presented its pre-fall collection in the museum’s Beaux-Arts Court on Monday evening, which was transformed into a runway with feminist neon art sculptures by artist Claire Fontaine installed all around the perimeter of the room.
“I’m so happy to be here; I’m so happy to be home — and to have Dior come to me,” said Rachel Zegler. “It’s so nice to be in Brooklyn. I’m a born and raised New Yorker, so getting to live here and work here and come see beautiful fashion here is nice.” The actress, an ambassador for the brand, opted for a velvet shorts-and-jacket suit set. “They actually custom made it for me,” she added. “Because I really, really wanted it, and it didn’t really come in my size. But they did make it for me, and I’m thrilled.”

The show turned out to be a family occasion: Naomi Watts attended with her daughter, as did Charlize Theron and Mickalene Thomas, while Anya Taylor-Joy brought along her husband Malcolm McRae. Other front row guests included Rosamund Pike, who donned a pair of sunglasses and greeted Thomas with a hug, Michelle Williams, Alexandra Shipp, Diane Kruger, Anna Diop, Team USA surfer Carissa Moore and K-pop star Haerin of NewJeans, who strolled into the venue with an entourage in tow.
Singer Tony Yu, who’s based in China but lived in New York while he was a student at NYU, was in town just for the evening.
“We’re coming as a representative for Dior China, and coming here to see the show for the fall 2024 women’s collection,” Yu said. “It’s very interesting because Dior doesn’t do quite as many show in New York as in Paris. The street vibes here is totally different, and it’s a different feel than the Paris romantic aesthetic,” he added. “So I’m really excited to see what’s happening today.”
