The New York City premiere of Verity took place at AMC Lincoln Square on September 29th, bringing Anne Hathaway, Dakota Johnson, and Josh Hartnett together to celebrate the upcoming psychological thriller. Based on Colleen Hoover's bestselling novel, the film follows struggling writer Lowen Ashleigh, who is hired to finish the book series of injured author Verity Crawford, played by Anne Hathaway, and discovers disturbing secrets while staying at the Crawford family estate.
For the premiere, the expecting mom turned heads in a dramatic black mermaid gown from Prabal Gurung's atelier collection. The strapless design featured intricate lace, shimmering crystal embellishments, and sequins, while its fitted silhouette flowed into a dramatic mermaid-style skirt that accentuated her baby bump. She completed the glamorous look with sparkling jewelry and soft, understated makeup.
