Hailee Steinfeld looked radiant as she returned to the red carpet for the first time since welcoming her baby daughter with husband Josh Allen four months ago.
The 29-year-old actress stepped back into the spotlight at D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event in Anaheim, California, on Friday, where she was promoting her upcoming animated movie, Hexed.
Hailee opted for an effortlessly chic take on power dressing for the occasion, wearing an oversized white button-down shirt beneath a structured black peplum jacket, which was cinched at the waist with a slim leather belt.
She completed the look with wide-leg dark denim jeans and black shoes, while her long brunette hair was swept to one side in glossy waves.
The Sinners star later took to the stage alongside Jodie Foster and Walton Goggins, who have joined the voice cast of the upcoming Walt Disney Animation Studios movie.
Jodie looked elegant in a navy pantsuit with white contrast stitching and sneakers, while Hailee’s relaxed tailoring stood out between her two co-stars.

And becoming a mother has given the Oscar-nominated actress an entirely new perspective on her latest project.
Hailee voices teenager Billie Doe in Hexed, who discovers she has magical abilities and is swept into the mysterious world of Hexe alongside her cautious and protective mother, Alice, voiced by Rashida Jones.

The actress revealed her daughter’s full name in June in an emotional letter published through her Beau Society Substack.
“Even though I know I am meant to guide you through this life, Harper Haize Allen, the truth is that already, you have taught me far more than I could ever teach you,” she wrote.

Hailee’s D23 appearance signals a return to work for the new mom, with Hexed particularly fitting as her first movie release since welcoming Harper.
The film, which also stars Tracey Ullman and Stephen Fry, will arrive in theaters on November 25, while Jodie voices the powerful Queen Celeste and Walton plays a magical three-eyed cat named Beef Roger Crummchuk.
