Lily Collins Shines at PaleyFest LA 2026 Red Carpet
Lily Collins made a stunning appearance at the PaleyFest LA 2026 red carpet for Netflix’s Emily in Paris in Los Angeles. The 37-year-old actress looked flawless in a daring outfit that turned heads during the event held at the Dolby Theatre on Friday.
Her look included a burgundy velvet evening gown with an asymmetric, one-shoulder design and a striking side cut-out that accentuated her figure. She paired the dress with black pointed heels, completing a glamorous ensemble that captured the attention of fans and media alike.
Lily was also seen proudly wearing her engagement ring after it was returned to her three years after it was stolen. The rare piece, designed by her husband, filmmaker Charlie McDowell, was reportedly worth more than £65,000. It was taken during her stay at the West Hollywood EDITION Hotel on Sunset Boulevard in 2023. She had placed the ring in storage at the venue, and upon returning, she discovered her belongings had been stolen without any sign of forced entry.
Last month, Lily shared a selfie on social media showing off the ring following its return. In her post, she expressed her gratitude to @joethejewelerchicago for helping recover the ring. She wrote: “So grateful to @joethejewelerchicago for helping recover my original engagement ring after it was stolen almost three years ago. Having this home means SO much to us. I’m still speechless it’s back on my finger.”
Lily and Charlie McDowell, the son of actor Malcolm McDowell, confirmed their engagement in September 2020 after meeting on the set of his film Gilded Rage the previous year. They exchanged vows in an intimate wedding ceremony in Dunton Hot Springs, Colorado, in September 2021.
In recent updates, Lily shared glimpses into her work-life balance with Charlie and their daughter Tove. She was seen doting on their 13-month-old daughter, whom they welcomed via surrogate. The couple appeared as proud parents in sunny photos, with Lily also showcasing some of her recent work projects.
One photo featured her in a black tennis outfit, showing off her toned figure while getting some exercise. In the caption, she wrote: “Work life balance…”
According to previous reports, Lily is planning to move from Los Angeles to London with her husband and daughter. Sources suggest she has been considering a return to Britain since ‘falling in love’ with London during her 12-week run in the West End thriller Barcelona over Christmas in 2024.
A source said: “Lily grew up in the English countryside with many happy memories and she wants the same for her daughter. But instead of the countryside, she has fallen in love with London because that’s where she has lots of friends and family. She is particularly taken with the north, like Hampstead and Queen’s Park.”
