Hannah Dodd’s style: 7 looks that define the ‘Bridgerton’ star’s identity beyond Francesca
On screen, Hannah Dodd embodies Francesca Bridgerton with corseted grace, all pastel silk and empire waistlines. Off-screen, it’s a different story entirely. The British actress has quietly built a compelling wardrobe: sharp tailoring, subversive menswear, heavy leather and avant-garde silhouettes that plant her firmly in the fashion conversation. Far from being defined by her role, Dodd wields clothing as a deliberate act of self-differentiation—and the results are consistently extraordinary. Here are the looks that prove it.

The deconstructed grey suit and bralette: avant-garde tailoring

Few looks challenge tailoring conventions quite like this. An oversized boxy grey blazer by Michael Kors, sized well beyond conventional fit, is worn open over a matching grey bralette—the exposed torso providing necessary feminine tension. The masterstroke? A stark white, sharply pleated fabric panel hanging asymmetrically from the blazer’s interior, injecting kinetic movement into otherwise rigid suiting.
The Giambattista Valli black pannier ensemble: a modernised historical silhouette

For the season four premiere at Paris’s Palais Brongniart, Hannah Dodd arrived in a Giambattista Valli Spring 2026 two-piece that modernised a historical silhouette. A sheer black ruched crop top—sliced open to bare the midriff—was paired with a voluminous, three-dimensionally textured midi skirt featuring subtle pannier-like hip extensions. The 18th-century silhouette, rendered in stark black, was both homage and subversion.
The crisp poplin shirt and leather tie: classic menswear subverted with a punk edge

Presenting a study in corporate cool, Hannah Dodd layers a perfectly pressed light blue poplin button-down—sharp collar, pristine tuck—over high-waisted pinstripe trousers. The genius lies in one single swap: a traditional silk tie replaced by a solid black leather one, introducing a quiet punk provocation into an otherwise impeccable boardroom aesthetic.

The shearling aviator jacket and fluffy hat: extreme winter volume

Hannah Dodd’s approach to cold-weather dressing is anything but understated. An oversized black leather aviator jacket by Sandro Paris, its collar and cuffs spilling with thick shearling, cocoons her entirely. A fluffy black hat and 1990s oval sunglasses deepen the monochrome drama—before a single glossy burgundy clutch cuts through with precisely the right amount of warmth.
The Emilia Wickstead grey draped top and trousers: fluid asymmetry at London Fashion Week

Worn to London Fashion Week, this monochromatic Emilia Wickstead ensemble showcases Hannah Dodd’s instinct for beautiful tension. A heavy grey top is gathered asymmetrically across the torso—one shoulder bare, the other swathed in a billowing balloon sleeve—while impeccably tailored wide-leg trousers provide precise, architectural grounding. The barely-there black T-bar sandals keep it anchored.
The leather moto jacket and cut-out dress: industrial armour meets fragile lace

Contradiction is the point here. A fitted, matte black leather moto jacket is layered over a black dress whose hem is an intricate cascade of swirling cut-outs. The tension between the jacket’s protective brutality and the dress’s fragile craftsmanship is deliberate and utterly thrilling.
The Miu Miu ruby red gown: pure Hollywood glamour

When the occasion demands pure Hollywood glamour, Dodd delivers. This Miu Miu silk gabardine column gown features a deep plunging V-neckline where spectacular metal and crystal floral brooches hold the draped bodice in place. Commanding, restrained and deeply sophisticated, it is red-carpet dressing—and masterful celebrity image-making—at its absolute finest.
