When it comes to celebrity couples, how they make their debut is bound to end up in the headlines. Sometimes, A-listers will link up secretly, only to get photographed together by sneaky paparazzi. Other times, they will make their romance official with a splashy red carpet appearance (like when Lady Gaga and Michael Polansky walked the Venice Film Festival red carpet last year). Whatever the case may be, how they introduce their relationship is always a moment.
A new famous pairing who is taking a more public-facing approach? Model Kaia Gerber and actor Lewis Pullman, who reportedly began dating a few months back. During the Venice Film Festival this past week, the couple made several appearances together—packing on the PDA fresh out the gate (in coordinated outfits, no less). Ahh—a true fashion It couple in the making!
It all began earlier this week, when Pullman and Gerber were seen de-boarding one of those glamorous wooden gondolas. (Are you even famous if you don’t arrive in one?). The model sported a chic (and somewhat retro) polka-dotted halter top with black dress pants, while Pullman went casual in his white tee and black jeans. On another occasion, they both wore matching all-white off-duty looks—Gerber in a halter top and swishy knee skirt, and Pullman in a white tee and off-white khakis. Their style is cohesive, yet not in a flashy, look-at-me way.
Their coordinated fashion approach heated up yesterday at the premiere of The Testament Of Ann Lee. The duo put their refined stamp on evening attire: Pullman looked dapper in his classic black tuxedo (with the customary white shirt and bowtie), while Gerber went elegant in a square-necklace black lace gown.
It can be easy for new Hollywood romances to feel gimmicky or too try-hard, but one thing that is clear for both stars here, is that they have individual styles of their own; Pullman is clearly the low-key ying to Gerber’s cool, modern yang. And while their his-and-hers wardrobes are still developing, they’re already a hot new fashion couple to watch—and we are just a few days in.
