This evening, Maria Bakalova attended the Headline Gala screening of ‘The Apprentice’ during the 2024 BFI London Film Festival, showcasing an exquisitely styled ensemble that commanded attention at The Royal Festival Hall. While many photos from the event have captured her look, one particular shot stood out—one that perfectly encapsulated every thoughtful detail of her outfit.
Maria stepped out in an Erdem figure-print dress from the Spring 2024 collection, featuring a scarf detail elegantly draped over her shoulder. The dress’ blend of artistic design and classic elegance suited the actress beautifully, but it was the attention to detail in her accessories that truly elevated the entire ensemble. Her delicately positioned hands drew attention to her Messika Night Owl necklace, bracelet, rings, and earrings, while her pose allowed her metallic green Le Silla pumps to share center stage.
This image feels like a stylist’s dream come true. The collaboration between Erdem Moralıoğlu, Messika, and Le Silla is perfectly realised in this look. It’s not just about the individual pieces, but how they come together seamlessly, each element enhancing the other without overpowering the overall aesthetic. The scarf’s drape, the placement of her jewelry, and the choice of metallic footwear all speak to impeccable styling.
This is undeniably Maria’s strongest red-carpet moment on this press tour so far. Every detail, from the selection of her accessories to the graceful way she wore them, was executed flawlessly.
Stylist: Jessica Paster.
