Margot Robbie continued her “Wuthering Heights” method dressing streak in Paris with a romantic Chanel dress for the film’s cast and creative team photo call on Monday.
The Oscar-nominated actress and producer wore a custom gown courtesy of the French luxury fashion house’s artistic director Matthieu Blazy, designed with contrasting fabric and dramatic sensibility. The sleeveless gown featured a formfitting bodice with a cinched waist for added silhouette definition.
Most of the gown was crafted from deep red velvet, with the skirt featuring a high-low effect: the red velvet was gathered to reveal a crisp white skirt beneath. The dress’ design also included a long train that trailed Robbie on the red carpet.
