The covers and red carpets

The moment that took 16Arlington beyond London was a British Vogue cover in December 2023, with Kate Moss and her daughter Lila photographed in the house’s eveningwear. Since then the label has become a regular on British red carpets, where its long, clean columns photograph well. Amal Clooney chose a white 16Arlington column for the King’s Trust Awards in 2025, and Sheila Atim wore one of its gowns to the Olivier Awards the same year. Erin Doherty wore a custom ruched gown to the BAFTA Television Awards.

On stage

Lily Allen walked the November 2025 show the house staged with Antony Price, his first in 36 years, wearing a navy velvet look on the runway. She wears a custom crystal-embellished 16Arlington mini for her West End Girl performances. The Antony Price collaboration has the full story of that show.

The early wearers

Before the brand reached the London Fashion Week schedule in 2019, its first pieces were worn by Adwoa Aboah and Jorja Smith. The house’s own special-projects list adds Hunter Schafer, Emma Corrin, Venus Williams, Alexa Chung, Alva Claire and Angel Reese, a range that shows how the clothes work across very different personal styles.

What celebrities wear from 16Arlington

The pattern is consistent. On red carpets it is the column gown, long and clean with one area of decoration, and on stage it is the embellished mini. The pieces at Coveti that carry those two ideas into the current collection are below.

1. Electra Gown in Black Diamond Sequin

The house column in black diamond sequin: thin straps, a square neck and a concealed branded zip. The gown most often seen on the red carpet.

2. Frasia Gown in Black

A strapless black devore column with an internal corset, for a black-tie invitation.

3. Foyle Gown in Red

A slim scarlet jersey column with scarf layering at the neck, pooling at the floor.

4. Sior Mini Dress in Silver

The Sior sequin mini, the stage piece, in silver.

5. Roia Mini Dress in Black and Navy

A one-shoulder mini in navy and black sequin fringe, built to move under lights.

6. Minelli Midi Dress in Navy

A strapless navy velvet midi with an internal corset and a feather hem.

Why stylists choose 16Arlington

The clothes are built for the camera. A woven sequin column catches flash evenly instead of flaring in patches, a strapless gown with an internal corset holds its line on a staircase, and a feather hem moves in a way that reads on video. The silhouettes are also simple enough to let the wearer lead, which is why the same house can dress a supermodel on a magazine cover, a barrister at a charity gala and a pop star on stage. For stylists, the other draw is fit: the label cuts close to the body with real tailoring inside, so a sample needs little alteration.

How to wear it like the red carpet

The celebrity styling of 16Arlington follows one rule: the dress does the talking. Hair is kept simple, jewellery is minimal, and the shoe is a slim sandal. For a wedding, a gala and an awards dinner, a column gown with small earrings is the house look. The styling guide goes into more detail, and the gowns guide covers every long dress.
