Naomi Watts, known for her sophisticated yet understated style, made a bold statement at the New York Film Festival premiere of her latest film, ‘The Friend’, held at Alice Tully Hall on Thursday.
While the Australian actress rarely goes for overtly attention-grabbing ensembles, her choice of a Schiaparelli Spring 2024 Haute Couture look demanded attention in the best possible way.
In this ensemble, Naomi ventured beyond her typical fashion comfort zone. The transparent black mesh corset, paired with a vinyl-effect technical velvet skirt shaped like a strawberry, was a daring choice that might not have initially seemed fitting for Naomi’s classic image. However, she pulled it off beautifully, proving that taking a risk can result in remarkable reward. Her grace and confidence made it clear that this bold, avant-garde design was not wearing her—she was owning it. It’s refreshing to see someone typically associated with minimalist glamour embrace a more theatrical silhouette, and she did it with the poise that she’s known for.
The choice of black pumps may have blended into the black carpet, but the true highlight was how she accessorized the look with dazzling earrings, which added sparkle without overwhelming the outfit.
This mix of daring and elegance made this look so captivating.
Naomi absolutely nailed this fashion moment for me—do you agree? Sometimes stepping outside the box is exactly what one needs, and Naomi showed us how to do it with style and grace.
