Fresh off her press tour for the Netflix series Ripley, Dakota Fanning is onto the next one leading up to her new horror movie, The Watchers, and she's dressing the part. Over the past several days, Fanning's stylist Samantha McMillen, who has worked with both Dakota and Elle Fanning since the early 2010s, has put the actress in a variety of summer dresses as she promotes the forthcoming M. Night Shyamalan flick.
In the upcoming movie, Fanning plays Mina, a 28-year-old artist who gets stranded in a vast, untouched forest in western Ireland. Her press tour looks have so far involved flowing, feminine dresses and floral patterns—putting a twist on the "damsel in distress" trope and perhaps echoing the film's eerily bucolic scenery.
