Here are some photos from the London premiere of The Girl on the Train, a film I’m actually looking forward to seeing. Emily Blunt is the star of the film, and she was absolutely the star of the premiere in this exquisite Alexander McQueen Resort 2017 collection gown. Look at the birds! Look at the bead work. And look at Emily’s light hair! This whole look is so striking.
It’s been said that Alexander McQueen’s creative director, Sarah Burton, has not done much with McQueen’s design legacy. Burton has always seemed like a placeholder until the label manages to get someone with a similar vision to McQueen, although I think we should stop saying that because Burton’s had the job since 2010. In the past six years, Burton has turned McQueen’s avant-garde vision into something tepid, something marketable, something establishment. But it’s good to see that something of McQueen’s vision remains at the label – this totally looks like something McQueen would have made for one of his favorite women.
I’m also including a photo of Blunt’s costar Haley Bennett, who plays Megan in the film. The part is interesting, and if Haley is any good, it could be a major breakout role for her. Haley is wearing Valentino! And of course, Luke Evans is around. Luke plays Megan’s husband.
