Selena Gomez slipped into a second Louis Vuitton gown late Sunday as part of a surprise post-Emmys celebration organized by her fiancé, Benny Blanco.
Gomez arrived on the red carpet for the 77th Primetime Emmy Awards in a custom red gown by Nicolas Ghesquière for Louis Vuitton and later changed into a dove-gray, draped Louis Vuitton dress that she wore to an after-hours gathering for the cast and crew of the Hulu series "Only Murders in the Building." She kept the sleek ponytail she had on the red carpet for the second look.
The late-night celebration followed an evening that was mixed for Gomez and the Hulu series: "Only Murders in the Building" earned eight Emmy nominations but did not win in its categories. Gomez posted photos from the private gathering to Instagram and wrote, "Grateful for all these people forever and always. Came home to a surprise my baby put together ☺️."
Blanco commented on the post, writing, "i win an award every night (you)," a remark that drew thousands of likes. The couple attended the ceremony together, and images from the awards show and the subsequent gathering circulated on social media.
Reports that the couple plans to marry by the end of the month have circulated in entertainment coverage, and the pair have maintained a high-profile presence on the awards circuit this season. Representatives for Gomez and Blanco did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Gomez’s evening illustrated the blending of formal awards-season appearances with more intimate, private celebrations among colleagues. The actor and producer remained on site after the broadcast to acknowledge colleagues from the Hulu series and to share the post-Emmys moment with friends and family.
The switch from a showstopping red carpet look to a second, comfortable gown underscored a trend among celebrities to present multiple looks across an awards night: one for the televised arrival and another for private celebrations or after-parties. For Gomez, the evening combined professional recognition in the form of nominations with personal milestones and a warm, low-key reception after the ceremony.
