Chic in Chanel:

Kristen Stewart has been the belle of the Venice Film Festival, not only winning plaudits from critics for her stellar performance as Diana, Princess of Wales in Pablo Larraín's Spencer, but also for her fashion choices. As an ambassador for Chanel, the A-list actress has frequently turned to the French fashion house for her red carpet looks in the past week, wearing the brand for photo calls and premieres alike.

She channeled one of Diana's most famous sartorial signatures - a tweed two-piece Chanel suit - for the photocall for her film. Rather than sticking to the princess' more demure knee-length skirt, she opted to raise the hemlines, however, wearing a pair of black hotpants with her suit jacket instead. The pieces are from the Metier d'Arts 2020/2021 collection, and feature gold buttons emblazoned with the double C logo. She teamed the look with simple black heels, keeping her dyed blonde locks neatly tucked behind her ears, à la Diana.

Meanwhile, for the premiere itself, Stewart wore another Chanel look, this time less obviously in homage to the People's Princess. It was a mint-green tunic-style top with matching cropped trousers, each featuring lace detailing as well as black bow at the waist. She finished the look with Christian Louboutin heels, a Chanel necklace and loose waves.
