Connie Nielsen brought unapologetic glamour to the ‘Gladiator II’ premiere at Ariake Coliseum in Tokyo, Japan today, where the actress wore a look from Dundas’ Pre-Fall 2020 collection.
Even though it was crafted in a shirt-dress silhouette, any notions of a laid-back vibe were instantly dismissed by its opulent, all-over embellishment. The sparkle alone declared that this dress meant business, a fitting choice for the leading lady of the evening.
With such a dazzling ensemble, the choice to pair it with diamond earrings and a pendant necklace was a confident one. While some may question the need for additional sparkle, the diamonds elevated the glamour without overwhelming the look. Connie’s choice of classic, Veronica Lake-inspired waves added another layer of elegance to her appearance, enhancing the dress’ luxe appeal and adding a touch of Old Hollywood.
However, if there was one detail I’d change, it would be her lip shade. With the high-voltage sparkle and soft skin-tone shade, a lighter lip could have been a softer option. Still, it’s a minor quibble for an otherwise impeccable look.
Considering this is a Dundas dress, you won’t be surprised to learn that it made its first red carpet appearance on Heidi Klum at the 2020 Grammys.
Stuart Weitzman Nudist II sandals completed her look.
