Rachel Zegler put on a delicate and demure display in a strapless yellow Dior dress as she attended Thursday’s Romeo & Juliet opening night on Broadway.

The 23-year-old actress and singer, who stars as Juliet in the play, was joined by 20-year-old co-star Kit Connor, her corresponding Romeo.

Zegler’s A-line frock, styled by Sarah Slutsky Tooley, boasted embroidered florals throughout.

The dark-haired beauty punctuated the outfit with yellow, open-toe, Dior heels that exposed her nude pedicure.

For his part, Kit wore a tailored navy blue suit, white shirt, and black and white patterned tie.

Rachel wore jewelry by Sophie Bille Brahe and Melissa Kaye, whom Tooley credited in an Instagram post.

She captioned several behind-the-scenes snapshots of the star, ‘Happy opening night to our Juliet!!! @rachelzegler we love you to the moon and the sun and the stars! Congratulations on this amazing achievement!!! BROADWAY BABY!!’ 

And the official Romeo & Juliet Instagram account shared a promotional poster with the caption: ‘A pair of star-crossed lovers take the stage. It’s Opening Night!’

In August it was announced that the play received a four-week extension amid high demand.

The show was initially slated to run through January 2025, but dates were added through February 16. 

The Shakespeare classic kicked off on Broadway with preview performances on September 26.

Tommy Dorfman, who is also part of the cast, turned heads in a draped, sheer, black dress on opening night. 

The 32-year-old entertainer wore her short, blonde, bob haircut was parted down the middle and tucked behind her ears.

Taking to social media following the preview performances in September, Dorfman gushed, ‘made my broadway debut (!!!) as nurse+tybalt in sam gold’s @romeojulietnyc this week, which is a sentence i never in a million years thought i would write.’

She added, ’10 years out of college and and i got here, what a gift! i love this cast and crew beyond. we’ll be at circle in the square now – feb 16!!!’

Zegler commented on the post, ‘yeah so i am crying.’

And actress Zooey Deschanel joined the comments to drop three fire emoji.

Rachel and Kit initially got fans excited about their upcoming show back in April when they posted the respective letters R and J on their social media pages.

Connor posted the letter R, while Zegler posted the letter J, with interlocking halves of an addition sign on their posts.

Both geotagged the posts as Verona, the location of the Shakespearean story.

A trailer was then released in May, showing a spin on the timeless production that sees the two lead stars in modern day suburbia.
