Florence Pugh capped off her “East of Eden” press run in style on Wednesday night in a custom Vivienne Westwood Couture design for the New York City premiere of the limited series held at The Plaza hotel.
The Oscar-nominated “Little Women” star wore a chartreuse embroidered corset and gunmetal silk skirt, styled with a matching chartreuse bolero courtesy of the British luxury fashion label. The look was an exercise in sculptural proportion.
While the corset was structured and fitted to Pugh’s body, the bolero added equal measures of volume and height without exaggeration, keeping in proportion with the actress and complementing the skirt.
