Emma Roberts traded something blue for something black after dark.
The “American Horror Story” star, 35, [married actor Cody John](https://pagesix.com/2026/07/26/celebrity-news/emma-roberts-marries-actor-cody-john-in-idaho-wedding/) in an off-white, antique-effect silk chiffon gown — then changed into something decidedly less traditional for the after-party.
Her second look for the Idaho nuptials was a black strapless Chantilly lace corset and tea-length skirt fluttering with strips of silk organza, befitting a theme she [described to Vogue](https://www.vogue.com/article/final-fitting-emma-roberts) as “boudoir saloon.”
