Rosamund Pike and Dior deserved another awards season 2024 moment together after her âElspeth at the funeralâ look broke the internet. But if that inky black lace dressâand exquisitely moody face netâwas a darkly romantic nod to Pikeâs Saltburn character, her BAFTAs look is quintessentially Rosamund.
âIâve been hoping to wear this dress since I saw it as part of a capsule couture collection on the shores of Lake Como,â recalls the British actor of the soft blue pleated silk chiffon midi with exposed corsetry. âI was lucky enough to attend the haute joallerie show, designed by Victoire de Castellane, where Maria Grazia Chiuri designed a unique collection of dresses for this special event.â
Itâs not just about pretty looks for this discerning admirer of fashion, who attended Molly Goddardâs show at London Fashion Week this weekend. âWearing something from a house with a female designer at the helm feels important and connected,â she shares of why wearing Dior, in particular, always feels apt. âMaria Grazia Chiuri understands not just how a woman wants to look, but how she wants to feel, and her designs have an understanding of the female body and incorporate both structure and fluidityâtwo elements that make me feel confident and free.â
