\n At the London premiere of Alejandro Gonz\u00e1lez I\u00f1\u00e1rritu\u2019s new film \u201cDigger,\u201d Emma D\u2019Arcy arrived at the red carpet event in a scene-stealing silky duster coat.\n <\/p>\n

\n The \u201cHouse of the Dragon\u201d breakout star managed to harness the theatricality of a regal ballgown (they were rubbing shoulders with the Prince and Princess of Wales, after all) without sacrificing the comfort of trousers. They did it via an undulating light-catching duster coat by Valentino that was so long it pooled gently at the floor, trailing behind the star as they walked. \u201cThe look is quite \u201990s Hugh Grant,\u201d D\u2019Arcy told Vogue.\n <\/p>\n

\n Many assume there are two options for red carpets \u2014 suits or gowns. Sometimes you can do both, as Billy Porter did in 2019 with his Christian Siriano tuxedo dress. But the fun starts when you remember there are more options on the table.\n <\/p>\n

\"D'Arcy<\/p>\n

\n Duster coats are not a traditional black-tie choice. In fact, in the 19th century, they were hard-wearing travel jackets made of linen or canvas \u2014 worn to protect more special clothes underneath from the mud, rain and dust kicked up from riding a horse, being in a carriage or later, being driven in a car.\n <\/p>\n

\n D\u2019Arcy\u2019s pearlescent version, however, is the most special thing they are wearing, made more glamorous with a Tiffany & Co. brooch designed by 20th century jewelry artist Jean Schlumberger. It\u2019s more spiritually akin to an opera coat \u2014 the dazzling genre of 1900s outerwear made with brocade silk and often trimmed with fur.\n <\/p>\n

\n D\u2019Arcy\u2019s jacket is more subtle. Their draped red blouse, also Valentino, peeks through the cuffs and winds around their neck. The actor, whose red carpet style mainly consists of some seriously louche and luxurious suits, isn\u2019t interested in wearing dresses. But who can resist a little silky drama?\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"EDITOR\u2019S NOTE:\u00a0 Featuring the good, the bad and the ugly, \u2018Look of the Week\u2019 is a regular series…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":610196,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[430,156,111,139,69],"class_list":["post-610195","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-celebrities","tag-entertainment","tag-new-zealand","tag-newzealand","tag-nz"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/610195","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=610195"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/610195\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/610196"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=610195"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=610195"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=610195"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
