A master of juxtaposition, Paris Jackson fused a vintage Trussardi gown with rock-and-roll attitude for a look that was both timeless—and frankly, whiplash chic—at the Venice Film Festival.
In a city known for its old-world opulence and flowing, romantic gowns, Paris Jackson arrived at the ‘Frankenstein’ premiere to disrupt the status quo. She wore an archival Trussardi 1996 gown, a choice that immediately signaled a move away from the expected. The dress itself was a study in contradictions: a floor-length, deep black leather garment featuring a daringly plunging neckline and a dramatic feathered collar. The fabric’s supple, almost pleated texture gave it a soft, fluid movement, expertly cutting a striking, figure-hugging silhouette. This wasn’t just a dress; it was a statement of gothic elegance, perfectly suited for the dark fantasy of the film.
Her accessories were a symphony of calculated cool. The most talked-about detail was her pair of elbow-length black gloves, over which she stacked chunky, sparkling diamond rings from Damiani. This small, rebellious touch created a visual tension that was both unexpected and incredibly stylish. The look was completed with sleek Santoni heels and a coordinating black clutch, proving that even with a bold look, synergy is key. The entire ensemble, thoughtfully put together by stylist Jessica Paster, was a brilliant moment for the red carpet circuit.
Elena Perminova channeled understated drama in a sleek black gown, punctuated by unexpected floral embellishments—a truly fresh take on celebrity style for the ‘Frankenstein’ premiere.
At the Venice International Film Festival’s ‘Frankenstein’ premiere, Elena Perminova delivered a lesson in sophisticated contrasts. Her choice was a chic black gown, distinguished by its boat neckline and a subtly draped bodice that artfully sculpted her figure. The dress itself, a masterclass in elegant simplicity, was crafted from a rich, probably silk-crepe fabric that flowed gracefully. However, it was the sleeves that truly captivated: short, almost cap-like, and heavily embellished with an intricate pattern of black and red sequins, creating a dark floral motif that shimmered with every movement. This unexpected detail injected a playful yet refined energy into the otherwise classic silhouette.
Perminova’s accessories were minimal, allowing the dress to take center stage. Small, delicate stud earrings were her only visible jewelry, a choice that spoke volumes about her confidence in the gown’s inherent elegance. She carried no bag, further emphasizing the clean lines of her look. The designer clearly aimed for a balance of structure and embellishment, a balance Perminova carried with an air of effortless grace.
Never one to shy from a dramatic silhouette, Nathalie Emmanuel fused effortless glamour with a touch of gothic romance at the Venice Film Festival’s ‘Frankenstein’ premiere.
On a red carpet often defined by ethereal gowns and vibrant hues, Nathalie Emmanuel delivered a masterclass in understated power. She chose a striking, off-the-shoulder black velvet gown that seemed to both absorb and reflect the Venetian light. The dress, with its crisp, architectural neckline and perfectly draped bodice, showcased a silhouette that was both modern and timeless. It was a bold move, relying on the fabric’s rich texture and the garment’s precise cut rather than embellishment to command attention. The designer, whose name was a topic of conversation among fashion critics, expertly created a look that felt both classic and uniquely contemporary—a perfect blend for the storied event.
The ensemble was anchored by a stunning, teardrop-shaped diamond necklace and matching earrings that added a touch of brilliant sparkle without overwhelming the look. The jewelry’s intricate details played beautifully against the dress’s minimalist lines. Her hair, styled in a crown of delicate braids, framed her face and added to the regal, yet relaxed, mood. Her makeup was equally refined, with a soft, smoky eye and a nude lip that allowed her natural beauty to shine through. This careful balance of elements solidified the outfit as one of the standout red carpet moments of the festival.
