Lily Allen Shines at Arlington x Antony Price Salon Show

There’s a saying that the best way to get back at someone is to thrive, and honestly, looking fabulous while doing it isn’t a bad idea either.

Lily Allen made quite an impression on Monday at the 16th annual Arlington x Antony Price salon show in London. She walked the runway channeling Holly Golightly, the unforgettable character from Audrey Hepburn’s *Breakfast at Tiffany’s*.

The 40-year-old pop star, who recently released her breakup album *West End Girl* to widespread acclaim, glided down the catwalk with a lit cigarette in hand.

In this striking appearance, she wore a strapless indigo velvet dress with a daring high slit that revealed lime green lining. The dress, aptly named “Avenge,” references her recent divorce from David Harbour, known for his role in *Stranger Things*.

This look was based on a design by Antony Price from 1981, a designer famous for his work with stars like David Bowie and Roxy Music. Allen’s ensemble featured a glamorous silhouette, and her hair was styled in a sleek updo, complete with her trademark feathered bangs, another nod to the classic character.

Interestingly, this particular dress was a modern reinterpretation of an original piece that recently sold for about $6,500. It’s intriguing how the name “Avenge” hints at personal history, isn’t it?

Fans couldn’t help but draw comparisons to Princess Diana’s famous “revenge dress” worn in 1994, adding another layer of cultural context to Allen’s choice.

Allen’s runway debut comes shortly after the release of her album, which reflects on her four-year marriage to Harbour, detailing issues of trust and allegations of infidelity stemming from their open relationship agreement. The couple, who connected through the dating app Raya, tied the knot in Las Vegas back in 2020 but separated in February.

Social media was abuzz with enthusiastic comments about her striking appearance, with many calling it a continuation of her “revenge dress” moments. One user humorously referenced a character from her album, saying, “Madeline couldn’t do it,” while another quipped, “Hot like a smoking gun.” Clearly, the audience is responding to her bold choices.

As for what’s next, the artist has announced a 2026 UK theater tour where she’ll perform *West End Girl* in full. Plus, she’s set to appear as a musical guest on *Saturday Night Live* on December 13th. It seems that Lily Allen is on quite a journey, doesn’t it?
