Ayo Edebiri Wore Chanel To The ‘After The Hunt’ London Film Festival Premiere

Ayo Edebiri attended the London Film Festival premiere of her new film, After the Hunt, on Saturday evening, marking another standout moment in her blossoming partnership with Chanel.

Becoming a Chanel ambassador is never without pressure — Lupita Nyong’o can certainly attest to that — but Ayo, whose style bridges artsy intellectualism with downtown ease, has handled the role with refreshing individuality. If we chalk her Venice Film Festival red taffeta moment up to a rare misstep, her recent red-carpet evolution has been nothing short of remarkable.

Wearing an ivory satin dress from Matthieu Blazy’s debut Chanel Spring 2026 collection, gathered at the hip with the maison’s signature camellia, Ayo exuded unexpected delicacy and poise. I had initially envisioned this gown on someone statuesque like Tilda Swinton, but Ayo’s proves that she’s no longer boxed in — she can do downtown cool, offbeat sophistication, minimalist playfulness, and now, Old Hollywood grace.

Styled with Chanel earrings, this was Ayo’s most assured Chanel-era look to date — graceful, quietly powerful, and a promising sign of what’s still to come.
