Margaret Qualley Wows Fans at the Grammys With a Show-Stopping Look
Fans watching the red carpet at the 2026 Grammys were expecting to see one of Hollywood’s favorite couples arrive together. Instead, Jack Antonoff showed up alone, and his outfit immediately grabbed attention.
While most guests wore tuxedos and glamorous gowns, Jack went in the opposite direction. He walked the carpet in jeans, a plain white t-shirt, and a brown leather jacket, standing out in the sea of formal looks.
His solo arrival quickly sparked questions about where his wife, Margaret Qualley, was. The answer came later in the night. Once the show moved inside the Crypto.com Arena, Margaret was spotted joining Jack at their table. According to footage and photos from inside the venue, the two looked relaxed and happy as they chatted and posed with friends like Miley Cyrus, Kendrick Lamar, and Sabrina Carpenter.

Margaret’s look inside the ceremony was much more classic than Jack’s. The actress wore a sleeveless black midi dress with small gold details running down the side. She finished the outfit with black heels and a black-and-white clutch. Her clean and elegant style was a sharp contrast to Jack’s casual streetwear, but the pairing somehow worked.

Jack had plenty to celebrate that night. As reported by the Recording Academy, he went into the Grammys with seven nominations. Many of them came from his work as a producer. He contributed heavily to Sabrina Carpenter’s album Man’s Best Friend, including the song “Manchild.” He was also nominated for his work on Kendrick Lamar’s album GNX, specifically the tracks “luther” and “tv off.”
Margaret has mostly stayed quiet about her personal life, but she recently opened up about her relationship with Jack in an interview with Cosmopolitan. Talking about how they first met, she shared, “Falling in love with Jack was the biggest feeling I’d ever felt.” She went on to explain that they met just as COVID restrictions were ending.
“We met right as COVID was ending, at the first party I’d been to. We saw each other on a roof, and we just started talking and never stopped.” She also described how they spent that summer walking around the city together, getting to know each other.
Professionally, Margaret has been busier than ever. She recently drew major attention for her role in the body horror film The Substance, directed by Coralie Fargeat. In the movie, she plays Sue, the younger and idealized version of Demi Moore’s character. The film has sparked a lot of conversation for its intense visuals and its message about aging and fame.
Looking ahead, Margaret has several big projects lined up through 2026. According to industry reports, she will star alongside Glen Powell in the black comedy thriller How to Make a Killing. She is also set to appear in The Dog Stars, a post-apocalyptic drama directed by Ridley Scott, with Jacob Elordi and Josh Brolin in the cast.
Between her standout fashion moments and her growing list of film projects, Margaret Qualley continues to stand out in Hollywood. Whether she’s keeping a low profile with Jack Antonoff or choosing challenging roles on screen, she seems determined to move at her own pace and do things her own way.
