Keira Knightley is enjoying a long overdue renaissance on the heels of her Golden Globe-nominated role in Netflix's spy thriller Black Doves. On Dec. 9, the actor stepped out for a screening of the show at the Crosby Hotel in New York City wearing a full Chloé look from creative director Chemena Kamali's Resort 2025 collection. Her cropped black velvet jacket was trimmed with a scalloped edge that mirrored the femininity of the ruffled white lace blouse she wore underneath it. The top unexpectedly paired a high buttoned neckline with loose tie closures that allowed glimpses of bare skin to peek through.
That said, her velvet winter Bermuda shorts were clearly the MVP of this ensemble. Much like Knightley herself, Bermuda shorts are in the midst of an ongoing resurgence. Designers like The Row, Tom Ford, and Celine were early adopters of the trend in Spring 2020. More recently, the style picked up speed at Bottega Veneta's pre-fall 2024 presentation and Chanel's resort 2025 show.
