Williams, a brand ambassador for Louis Vuitton, often works with celebrity stylist Kate Young, who also styles Rachel Weisz, Nina Dobrev and Julianne Moore. Here, a selection of some of her most notable red-carpet looks — including the mustard Vera Wang gown she turned heads in at the 2006 Academy Awards.
2023
To the 2023 Producers Guild Awards, Williams opted for a red strapless gown with a bow detail. The bold look, which the actress paired with stark red lipstick, was from Valentino’s pre-fall 2023 collection.
2020
Williams opted for a sherbet orange-colored Louis Vuitton gown with a sky blue detail for the 2020 Golden Globe Awards, alongside fiancé Thomas Kail. Williams was pregnant at the time, and accessorized with Tiffany & Co. jewelry.

2013
Williams aligned with the theme of the 2013 Met Gala “Punk: Chaos to Couture,” wearing a high-low Saint Laurent gown. Even the actress’s hair, styled in a side-swept pixie cut, was edgy.
2006
Williams channeled Old Hollywood at the 2006 Academy Awards, arriving in a mustard-colored Vera Wang gown. The frock evoked a vintage feel, with ruffles, layers and a V-neckline.
2001
In 2001, to the film premiere of “Me Without You,” Williams wore a gathered black top with a plunging neckline paired with a floral pattered midi skirt. The actress posed alongside fellow actress Anna Friel.
