The 2025 Planned Parenthood of Greater New York’s Spring Into Action Gala was a star-studded event that brought together activists, advocates, artists, and other notable figures in support of reproductive rights. Among the attendees was Olivia Rodrigo, a young pop star known for her outspoken advocacy for reproductive rights and her fight against government rollbacks.
Rodrigo was honored at the gala for her vocal stance on reproductive rights and the challenges facing abortion access. In her acceptance speech, the 22-year-old singer expressed gratitude for the connection she has formed with women through her music. She highlighted the importance of creating a safe space for young girls to feel wild, emotional, and carefree.
For the event, Rodrigo made a fashion statement in a white silk Gucci dress from the pre-fall 2025 collection. The dress featured a crystal horsebit detail that brought the delicate spaghetti straps together across the décolletage. She paired the dress with barely there silver stilettos and opted for a simple glam look with long straight hair and a glossy pink lip.
During the gala, Rodrigo was photographed on the red carpet with fellow singer Lily Allen. The two had previously performed a surprise duet of Allen’s song “F*ck You” at Glastonbury in 2022, dedicating it to the five members of the U.S. Supreme Court after the overturning of Roe v Wade. Allen donned a gauzy taupe crop top with sheer paneling, an iridescent green maxi skirt, and a quirky Puppets and Puppets cookie-embossed bag.
The event was a powerful gathering of individuals dedicated to protecting reproductive rights and ensuring access to safe and legal abortion services. Rodrigo’s presence and advocacy served as a reminder of the importance of speaking out against government rollbacks and standing up for women’s rights. The gala was a celebration of solidarity and support for Planned Parenthood and the vital services they provide to communities in need.
