Elle Fanning's 'Maleficent: Mistress Of Evil' London Premiere Look Was Not What It Seems
T-minus eight days until the Disney spectacular that is Maleficent: Mistress of Evil hits a theater near you. And you know what that means, right? Aside from signaling it's time for you to schedule a much-needed movie date night for Oct. 18, it also means there's still a little over a week's worth of events for the film's leading ladies to attend, all around the world. First was L.A., then came Rome, and now, the ever-stylish actors are trekking around England for its U.K. showing, with Elle Fanning's ethereal Maleficent: Mistress of Evil London premiere look being all anyone can think about this morning — and for good reason. So, grab your morning coffee, and prepare to obsess over the 21-year-old's most recent red-carpet moment.
The bar has been set high for awards season — and that's because the leading ladies of Disney's forthcoming film, Maleficent: Mistress of Evil, have singlehandedly shut down every red carpet they have graced since starting their press rounds. Angelina Jolie, for example, has opted for some pretty bold pieces as of late, including a Versace chainmail dress (complete with a diamond-encrusted scorpion brooch) and a purple Givenchy couture top that was pure maximalist perfection.
Fanning has also been continuing her jaw-dropping red-carpet style streak. And if you thought her '50s-inspired Cannes Film Festival look — which took 450 hours to make — was one for the sartorial history books, just wait until you see that gorgeous pastel-green look she debuted at the Maleficent sequel's London premiere on Weds.
There's quite a lot to take in, so let's break it down detail for detail. The pastel-hued ensemble — which is right in line with fall 2019's pistachio color trend — was custom-made by Armani Privé. And while it might appear to look like a gown upon first glance, Fanning's red-carpet getup actually consisted of three entirely pieces.
The brand took to Instagram to outline every facet of Fanning's outfit — and it's safe to say it's quite lavish.
"@ellefanning wore an embroidered mesh and flounced organza top over a pearl-and-crystal-embellished bustier and jade-green skirt by #GiorgioArmaniPrivé for the London premiere of Maleficent: Mistress of Evil #ArmaniStars," the brand wrote on Instagram. Talk about an elaborate look, no?
As for her hair and makeup? Fanning wore a sleek, slicked-back updo, which allowed her statement-making, extra-glitzy diamond earrings to take center stage. A soft, mint-green lid with a bit of sparkle, a subtle cat-eye, and a swipe of gloss rounded out her evening look effortlessly.
