    Dakota Johnson has been friends with Taylor Swift for a long time, so her attendance at the singer's nuptials was all but mandatory. When Swift wed Travis Kelce in a grand wedding ceremony at Madison Square Garden—in front of approximately 1,000 guests—Johnson was watching, while wearing the perfect little black dress.

    The Materialists star was photographed leaving her apartment to head to the wedding wearing a sleek yet subtle wedding guest outfit. Johnson's black halter dress—from Valentino's Pre-Fall 2026 collection—features a leg split and a long scarf detail, which moves with the breeze.

    She accessorized the LBD with a Rockstud Spike Nappa Leather Crossbody Clutch Bag from Valentino, which retails for $2,400 and adds a little edge to her outfit.
