Margot Robbie showcased her signature method dressing once again during a photo call for the cast and creative team of Wuthering Heights in Paris on Monday, wearing a captivating Chanel dress. The Oscar-nominated actress and producer chose a custom creation by French fashion house Chanel’s artistic director, Matthieu Blazy, combining rich fabrics and dramatic design to reflect the film’s mood.
Detailed Design Elements of Robbie’s Custom Red Velvet Gown
The sleeveless dress featured a fitted bodice with a cinched waist that accentuated Robbie’s silhouette. Most of the gown was crafted from deep red velvet, while the skirt was designed with a high-low cut that revealed a crisp white layer beneath. A long train extended from the dress, trailing behind Robbie, adding to the gown’s striking presence on the red carpet.
Accessories and Beauty Look Complementing the Chanel Gown
To complement the dress, Robbie wore a red velvet choker set with a large shimmering gemstone at its center, connected to a teardrop-shaped gem in matching color tones. She opted for minimal additional accessories to keep the focus on the dress. Her blonde hair was styled in natural waves parted in the middle, and her makeup featured soft touches highlighted by a rosy lip shade, harmonizing with the gown’s color palette.
Robbie’s Commitment to Method Dressing Throughout the Promotional Tour
This event in Paris highlighted Robbie’s continued embrace of method dressing aligned with the visual themes of Emerald Fennell’s adaptation of Emily Brontë’s novel. For the Wuthering Heights Los Angeles premiere, she wore a custom Schiaparelli gown, described as embodying the film’s atmosphere.
It was this idea of [the dress] soaking up the ground, which we knew was going to be red carpet, or [in this case] red lacquered floor and having it kind of seep up into the dress, and then the lace and the dark decay of the ‘Wuthering Heights,’
