With her stylist Law Roach, the actor served some iconic red carpet moments, including the vintage Thierry Mugler ‘Gynoid’ suit for Dune: Part Two premiere, the Maison Margiela jewel-toned gown for Met Gala, and her entire Challengers press tour looks. While the metallic suit from Mugler’s AW95 couture show and the Maison Margiela Artisanal gown (a reinterpretation of a 1999 Dior dress) was a truly historic fashion moment, the press tour added a modern take to method dressing.
