Ashton debuted her baby bump Wednesday at a screening of her film Mr. Malcolm's List in New York. The actress wore a beige bead-embellished tulle gown designed by Sabina Bilenko Couture.

"It was such a privilege to work on this dress for Zawe," Bilenko told Vogue. "She is such an incredible actress and the way she carries a look on the red carpet is unparalleled."

Bilenko also posted on Instagram, calling Ashton a "glowing mum-to-be."

Ashton plays Julia Thistlewaite in Mr. Malcolm's List, a romantic comedy based on the Suzanne Allain novel of the same name. The period film also stars Freida Pinto, Sope Dirisu and Oliver Jackson-Cohen and opens in theaters Friday.

Ashton and Hiddleston met on the set of the 2019 play Betrayal. The pair made their red carpet debut as a couple at the Tony Awards in September 2021.

Hiddleston confirmed his engagement to Ashton in an interview with the Los Angeles Times this month.
