Jessie Buckley's Dramatic Style Shift

Jessie Buckley is taking a page out of Zendaya's book, swapping her style as she promotes back-to-back projects. At the London premiere of her latest film, The Bride, on February 26, Buckley made a jaw-dropping appearance in a gown that was half-gothic, half-barely-there. Styled by Danielle Goldberg, the dress was a standout from Maison Margiela's Spring 2024 Couture collection.

The gown started with a simple vertical stitch down the bodice, but as the black chiffon cascaded to her hips, it transformed with added pleating and a dramatic train. Buckley's bold choice was evident as she embraced the sheer nature of the dress, opting for a nude-toned teddy instead of a traditional bra, and cinching her waist with a corset.

“Jessie Buckley's gown was a gothic masterpiece, blending transparency with elegance,” a fashion insider commented, highlighting the unique design.

Accessorizing the Gothic Glamour

Following the footsteps of fashion icons like Hunter Schafer and Ariana Grande, Buckley skipped John Galliano's accessories and instead paired her look with Christian Louboutin pumps and dazzling Jessica McCormack earrings. The earrings, featuring the jeweler's signature button-back setting, were reminiscent of Zendaya's engagement ring.

The nakedness of the gown might seem unexpected for Buckley, but it aligns with her history of gothic-inspired fashion choices. Just last week, she graced the 2026 BAFTA Awards in a chic Chanel velvet dress, proving her loyalty to luxurious fabrics and daring designs.

From Oscars to Upcoming Roles

This isn't Buckley's first foray into bold fashion. At the 2023 Oscars, she wore a gothic Rodarte gown, complete with dramatic plum and olive floral embellishments. Fast forward to the Golden Globes, and she was a vision in a custom baby blue Dior dress.

As Buckley prepares for the 2026 Actor Awards, where she's nominated for Best Leading Actress, the fashion world waits in anticipation. With her connections to top designers like Bottega Veneta and Chanel, her next look is bound to be another showstopper.
