Laura Dern and Jeff Goldblum
It felt like a no-brainer to open with photocall shenangians.
Laura Dern in Stella McCartney
This was originally MUCH more pleated and I have to confess....I think she should have worn the runway version. This version sort of feels like a G.L.O.W. leotard grew a skirt and the original one has more oomph.
Bryce Dallas Howard
I didn't care for those shoes on Kate Middleton and I don't care for them here! (I honestly might have suggested white ones?) This color is really fun on her, though and from the ankles up...I'm in.
DeWanda Wise in Lanvin
I wish I had a better, front-facing snap of this dress -- the pics we got from this event were sort of random? -- because it seems CUTE. It's so voluminous and fun. (I'm also concerned that she's cold, given the people behind her.)
Mamoudou Athie in Etro
He looks fantastic in this. (The backdrop is also really entertaining. Between this and Top Gun, the marketing folks are really getting to stretch their wings for big budget premieres again.)
Mamoudou Athie in Missoni
This look is ALSO great; whoever is styling him has been nailing this.
Bryce Dallas Howard
I don't hate this, but it's a bit Mother of the Bride, perhaps? A very glam MotB, however.
DeWanda Wise in Giambattista Valli
And if BDH is a Mother of the Bride, DeWanda Wise is a VERY groovy Disco Bride.

This also has a very vague Star Wars vibe. Like Princess Leia By Halston. (In fairness, actual Princess Leia ALSO had a Princess Leia By Halston vibe. Princess Leia was very chic in her youth, she just had...a lot of other pressing issues than fashion, you know?)
Jeff Goldblum
Goldblum's gonna be first in line for the new Elvis movie.
