In 2023, actors choose to channel their characters on the red carpet—Character-core (Don’t mind us coining a new trend) has become all the rage. Margot Robbie kickstarted the trend over the summer by re-creating vintage Barbie looks to a T. Now, we see Timothée Chalamet in rainbow-colored suits and bejeweled Cartier candy necklaces to promote Wonka. And yesterday, at the series finale premiere of The Crown in London, Emma Corrin wore a pantless tuxedo in homage to an iconic Princess Diana ensemble. Corrin played Lady Di in the Netflix-original drama's fourth season, so their nod to the late royal's look from 1985 was equal parts heartfelt and stylish.
Corrin ensemble was custom-tailored by Miu Miu and featured a white double-breasted tuxedo jacket styled with a white button-down and a matching black bow tie. Instead of bottoms, Corrin went pantless (in true trendsetter fashion) in a sheer gauzy skirt that revealed their chunky black knee-high boots. On the accessory front, they opted for black transparent gloves and statement Cartier earrings. The ensemble was cool and edgy, with a nod to the people's princess, but most importantly, it was Corrin. Their red carpet look was the perfect balance of honoring Diana through their own style, which made the outfit feel sincere.
