“Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” and “Days of Our Lives” star Lisa Rinna made one of her most dramatic red carpet appearances to date while attending the 2025 British Fashion Awards on Monday, December 1 at the iconic Royal Albert Hall.
Details on Rinna’s Jaw-Dropping Transformation
Rinna was the guest of up-and-coming British designer Maximilian Raynor, who made his solo debut with a catwalk show in September last year.
Rinna’s glam team decided on a bleached blonde hairstyle and matching bleached eyebrows, which rendered her almost unrecognizable. The ensemble was made up of a black-and-white gingham plaid pattern, featuring a top with high shoulders and a peplum waist that merged into a fringed skirt.
Rinna and Raynor chatted with 10 Magazine prior to the event.
“For me, someone who is in LA … to come to the British Fashion Awards is so iconic,” Rinna said. “It’s like … better than the Met Gala.”
Rinna continued, “I said it! I think it’s chicer than the Met Gala. Only … I’ve never been … but I would still like to do.”
Raynor described the look as “drama, glamour, LA meets London … sort of, like, vampish meets midcentury.”
“It’s in this amazing check that’s kind of like your granddad’s shirt, but taken and elevated,” Raynor said. “It’s really an exploration of that, but fused with the women’s textiles of Maximilian Raynor.”
“It’s head-to-toe couture, honey,” Rinna told The Perfect Magazine on the red carpet. “It is couture, but it’s couture made to me … for me, by him,” she said as she gestured to Raynor.
