Ashley Graham attended the Michael Rubin REFORM Alliance Casino Night in Atlantic City on Saturday, drawing attention for a turquoise one-shoulder gown that featured side ruching and a wave pattern designed to accentuate the model’s figure. Graham, 37, arrived with her husband, director Justin Ervin, 36, and was photographed on the red carpet at the Ocean Casino Resort.
Graham’s gown was styled with a wet-look finish to her long, dark hair, diamond hoop earrings, a matching evening bag and strappy black high-heel sandals. Ervin wore a black tuxedo with a dress shirt and tie and appeared to accessorize with a decorative brooch on his lapel. The couple were seen speaking with several guests during the event, including actors Tiffany Haddish and Emma Roberts.
The annual Casino Night, hosted by Rubin, serves as a fundraiser for REFORM Alliance, a nonprofit focused on probation and parole reform. Rubin posted on Instagram after the event that the evening had raised more than $20 million, and he thanked attendees for their support. He wrote that since the organization launched in 2019 it has helped pass 22 bipartisan laws across 12 states and created opportunities for nearly 850,000 people to exit supervision.
Rubin added in his post that with more than 4 million Americans currently on probation or parole, the organization’s work remains urgent and aimed at creating systemic solutions to improve public safety and support families. The post characterized the night as a success for the charity’s mission to transform probation and parole and to expand pathways to work and well-being.
In addition to Graham, the event drew a range of public figures. Attendees included Jamie Foxx, Kevin Hart and musician Machine Gun Kelly, as well as former White House senior advisers Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner. Emma Roberts, 34, posted a brief video on social media showing her and rapper Ice Spice enjoying a performance by The Weeknd at the event.
Graham, a frequent presence on fashion runways and a cover model for Vogue, had attended an Omega launch in London earlier in the week and showed no sign of jet lag on Saturday, according to on-site photos. Tiffany Haddish, 45, wore a flowing white halter dress with a bejeweled waistband, while Roberts opted for a ruched black gown paired with a tuxedo jacket.
Organizers said proceeds from the evening will support REFORM Alliance’s continued advocacy and legislative efforts. Rubin’s post emphasized the group’s focus on bipartisan policy changes designed to reduce unnecessary supervision and to create opportunities for those exiting the criminal justice system.
