Tom and Zawe are marriedZawe’s decision to wear British designer Emilia to the red carpet is not a surprise though, as they have been good friends for years.
“I feel like I’ll be very held on an evening where, as an expectant mother, you can feel a little bit exposed,” Zawe told Vogue UK, who also confirmed reports that Zawe and Tom had tied the knot.
“[But] I think that every time you step onto a red carpet, there’s a really unique opportunity to express your authentic self, your individuality, your creativity, and celebrate where you are at that moment.”

Zaww wore an Emilia Wickstead dress”We met years ago at the British Fashion Awards when she dressed me and we attended together,” she continued of her friendship with Emilia, a designer also loved by Princess Kate.
“We had the most fabulous night and instantly felt like kindred spirits. We aligned so much on fashion and womanhood, and I’ve always loved her designs. They embody a seamless blend of classic and contemporary, and she’s also just an incredible craftsperson. You feel the level of detail that goes into every piece when you wear them.”

“Zawe wore a soft pink gown from us during her last pregnancy—quietly glowing, with a little secret only she knew. Now, to celebrate her second in this beautiful blue from our pre-fall collection, and to share it with the world, feels like a sweet continuation of that story. I’m so honored to be part of it. Zawe is also such a vibrant, clever and special friend and muse of the brand—she’s been wearing Emilia Wickstead for years, and I love being part of her journey.”
