The “Dawson’s Creek” alum wore a piece from designer Ashlynn Park’s spring 2026 ready-to-wear collection. The white dress featured a plunging neckline and flowing midi skirt with a tiered element that emphasized the dress’ cinched waist for silhouette definition.
The fabric of the white dress featured a crinkled effect that gave the overall look a more relaxed feel, echoing springtime and the forthcoming summer season. The pared back, yet elegant, look was further augmented by Holmes’ accessory selections and shoes.

The actress wore a pair of Herbert Levine sandal heels with her dress. Holmes elevated her look by wearing nearly $80,000 worth of Arielle Ratner jewels, including the statement diamond Gatsby earrings and the diamond Gatsby collier.
As for glam, Holmes’ brunette hair was parted in the middle and tussled with soft curls. Her makeup included bold brows and smokey eyes along with a glossy lip. Holmes has collaborated with stylist Brie Welch in the past.

Ashlyn’s spring 2026 ready-to-wear collection made its runway debut during New York Fashion Week in September 2025. Founded by Park in 2020, the fashion label prioritizes a distinctly modern architectural bent to each collection.
“Like a moon jar from the Joseon era, the clothes had volume, stature on top while they slimmed down to the base. Exaggerated puff-sleeve capelets; a frothy, cocoon-shaped dress, and a deconstructed gown with voluminous hips — these pieces were reminders of the full, rotund shape of the imperial vessel,” Kathy Lee wrote of Park’s designs in WWD’s review of the spring 2026 collection.
