Emma Stone embraces method dressing at Baftas with Bella Baxter-inspired look


Actor follows in footsteps of Margot Robbie and others by wearing gown designed to ‘show affinity’ with Poor Things character

On the Bafta podium to collect her best actress award, Emma Stone came dressed in character, in a salmon-pink gown with one balloon-shaped sleeve, vintage-style buttoning and a floating bubble skirt. Last month, Giorgio Armani created a scaled-up, lifesize version of the dress and feather boa worn in miniature by SuperStar Barbie, a 1977 edition of the doll, for Robbie’s appearance at the Golden Globes. Working with the Hollywood stylist Law Roach, she wore a sheer black spiderweb gown by Valentino for the film’s Los Angeles premiere, and Alexander McQueen thigh-high boots with sparkling, dewy webs embroidered in crystal for the London red carpet.
