Rick Edinger in SHAO on the Tony Awards Red Carpet
Rick Edinger attended The 79th Annual Tony Awards red carpet at Radio City Music Hall wearing SHAO runway pieces, later featured in Vanity Fair’s coverage of the Tony Awards 2026 red carpet.
For the evening, Rick wore the SS26 Bi-Tonal Pink Suit with the AW26 White Tailored Tuxedo Shirt, bringing together two runway pieces that reflect SHAO’s approach to modern tailoring, color, proportion, and formalwear.
The look balanced sharp construction with a sense of performance, making it especially fitting for a night celebrating theatre, creative excellence, and the communities that shape the performing arts.
A Look Built for Performance and Presence
The SS26 Bi-Tonal Pink Suit is designed around contrast, proportion, and a chromatic approach to tailoring. The blazer combines blush and rose panels to create a vertical composition that elongates the silhouette while maintaining a soft tonal balance.
Cut with a fluid, elongated shape, the blazer features a sculptural shawl collar, clean panel construction, and crystal-embellished buttons that add a refined point of detail. The matching trousers continue the same bi-tonal language, with contrasting panels running vertically through the leg to create a strong graphic rhythm.
Together, the suit creates a red carpet silhouette that feels polished, expressive, and precise.
The AW26 White Tailored Tuxedo Shirt
Rick styled the suit with SHAO’s AW26 White Tailored Tuxedo Shirt, a runway piece now available for pre-order.
Constructed from crisp Italian cotton twill, the shirt features a structured silhouette with vertical pleated panels along the front. A sharp point collar, clean button placket, and tailored cuffs bring a classic formalwear foundation to the piece, while the exaggerated proportions add drama and movement.
The shirt’s strength is in its construction. The fabric holds a smooth, polished surface, while the pleating and tailored finish give the piece depth without excess. It is refined, architectural, and designed to sit seamlessly beneath tailoring or stand on its own.
Representing Education, Access, and the Arts
Rick shared that attending the Tony Awards is a privilege and honor each year, especially while representing Carnegie Mellon University School of Drama. He also highlighted the partnership between Carnegie Mellon, CMU Drama, The Wing, The Broadway League, and The Tony Awards, noting its importance in uplifting education and access within the arts.
That context made the evening even more meaningful. The Tony Awards are not only a celebration of performance, but also of the communities, institutions, and creative networks that make theatre possible.
For SHAO, seeing Rick bring these runway pieces into that space was a special moment, one that connected fashion, performance, education, and artistic community.
From Runway to Red Carpet
Both pieces worn by Rick come from SHAO runway collections. The SS26 suit brings color and architectural contrast, while the AW26 tuxedo shirt adds formal structure and craftsmanship.
On the Tony Awards red carpet, the combination felt bold without losing refinement. The pink bi-tonal tailoring created immediate visual impact, while the white tuxedo shirt grounded the look in precision and quality.
Pre-Order the Look
