For Holstein, working with Russell felt right for the brand’s first custom red carpet look. “She has a strong sense of self and isn’t afraid to take risks,” Holstein tells Vogue. As did working with leather. “It’s so intrinsic to the brand,” she adds. “Bringing it into this kind of setting allowed us to push it somewhere unexpected. There’s something daring about that tension, and Keri carries it with such ease.”

Rhys, for his part, hit the Emmys carpet in Thom Browne. He matched his wife’s energy in a made-to-measure twill tuxedo finished with black grosgrain tipping. The classic, gentlemanly tux—replete with a bibbed white Oxford shirt, knit cashmere vest, and bow tie—was finished with a pair of Browne’s wingtip boots. “Thom Browne was the perfect ideal for me,” Rhys says. “A perfect balance of classic, beautiful tailoring and mischievous subversion.”
Russell and Rhys share a stylist in Fleming, who helped make sure they were on the same sartorial page for the evening. “What resonates most with both Keri and Matthew is their authenticity in how they live and approach their lives,” he says. Khaite and Thom Browne reflected that confidence, he adds. “A likely NYC marriage!”
