Major celebs like Cindy Crawford and Anna Wintour showed up for the epic red carpet premiere.
Ryan Murphy's latest TV obsession officially arrived in style. On Monday night, FX rolled out the blue carpet for the world premiere of The Shards, the upcoming thriller series based on Bret Easton Ellis' bestselling novel, transforming New York City's SVA Theatre into one of the summer's most star-studded events before the celebration continued with an after-party at the iconic Chelsea Hotel.
The evening brought together the series' cast, creators, fashion insiders, and Hollywood favorites, with DJ Daisy O'Dell keeping the energy high during a vinyl-only set at the post-screening celebration.
Leading the arrivals were cast members Igby Rigney, Kaia Gerber, Homer Gere, Hayes Warner, Graham Campbell, Evan Rachel Wood, Jordan Roth, Daniel Dale, Ivy Wolk, Owen Painter, and Bella Valdes, alongside executive producers Ryan Murphy, Brad Simpson, Nina Jacobson, Scott Robertson, Nissa Diederich, Tanase Popa, Nick Hall, Michael Uppendahl, and Brian Young.
The guest list was just as impressive. Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber joined fashion powerhouses Anna Wintour, Marc Jacobs, and Char Defrancesco, while actors Lewis Pullman, Carey Lowell, Grace Gummer, Darren Criss, Julianne Hough, Max Greenfield, and Joey Pollari were among the many familiar faces spotted on the carpet.
The series adapts Bret Easton Ellis' acclaimed novel and transports viewers to 1980s Los Angeles, where privileged prep school students become entangled in a web of desire, jealousy, obsession, and murder. At the center is aspiring writer Bret (Igby Rigney), whose world begins to unravel after mysterious transfer student Robert Mallory (Homer Gere) arrives just as a serial killer known as The Trawler terrorizes the city.
The Shards premieres with its first two episodes on Wednesday, August 5, on FX and Hulu, with new episodes released weekly.
