Kristen Stewart recently said of relationships, “It’s not that I want to hide who I am or hide anything I’m doing in my life.” With that, she made her first public appearance with her new girlfriend, St. Vincent.

The women made a stylish pair at Thursday’s CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Show and Tea at Chateau Marmont in L.A. They posed side by side without any kind of PDA, but with a cool confidence. They wore shades and K.Stew, who had her blond locks slicked back, kept her hands in her pockets and her iPhone at the ready.

According to Vogue‘s party report, the women, who were seated by Emma Stone and Katy Perry, couldn’t resist getting hands on with the poodles that were part of the fashion show. They gave the pooches “a few belly rubs.”

This marks the official coming out for the new pair. Since St. Vincent (real name: Annie Clark), who was dating Cara Delevingne over the summer, attended a screening of Stewart’s film Certain Women at the New York Film Festival on Oct. 3, the women have been in constant company. They were photographed holding hands in NYC, where the musician resides. They were also both at Elle Women in Hollywood Awards on Oct. 24, but opted not to pose together.

Stewart, who recently ended a relationship with Alicia Cargile, talked relationships with The New York Times Style Magazine in August. It seemed she was still recovering from the Robert Pattinson era, when her relationship with her Twilight co-star was one of the buzziest in Hollywood. (It ended soon after she cheated on him with her married Snow White and the Huntsman director Rupert Sanders.)

“People wanted me and Rob to be together so badly that our relationship was made into a product,” she said. “It wasn’t real life anymore. And that was gross to me. It’s not that I want to hide who I am or hide anything I’m doing in my life. It’s that I don’t want to become a part of a story for entertainment value.”


When it comes to labeling her sexuality, she told Nylon in 2015 that she doesn’t.

“If you feel like you really want to define yourself, and you have the ability to articulate those parameters and that in itself defines you, then do it,” she said. “But I am an actress, man. I live in the f***ing ambiguity of this life and I love it.” She added that she believes in fluidity and she thinks that in time people won’t need to associate as straight or gay. “It’s like, just do your thing,” she said.

So she’s doing her own thing. And it agrees with her.
