Margot Robbie's BAFTAs Gown Proves That We Should Never Judge a Dress by Its Front

Feb 2 2020 - 3:24pm

Just a few days after the London premiere of her latest film [1] Birds of Prey, Margot Robbie stepped out for the 73rd annual EE British Academy Film Awards at the Royal Albert Hall. For the occasion, the Australian star — who is nominated twice in the supporting actress category for her roles in Bombshell and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood — wore a stunning black gown from Chanel's Spring/Summer 2020 Couture collection.

Featuring a full tiered skirt and dramatic lace capelet sleeves that revealed a gorgeous open back, the floor-length gown looked incredibly glamorous, and all in all perfectly in keeping with the rest of the evening's red carpet looks [2]. To finish her ensemble, Margot and her stylist Kate Young opted for pared-back accessories, including an adorable black flower ring and a striking pair of diamond earrings.

As the longtime face of Chanel, it is perhaps not so surprising to see Margot returning to the house's designs for such an important occasion — and who could blame her, when the results are always so stunning? After all, who could forget the sequin Chanel trousers [3] she wore during the 2019 Cannes Film Festival? Or the angelic white dress [4] she chose for the Once Upon a Time in Hollywood LA premiere? Or the gown she wore to the 2018 Oscars [5], which was custom-made by Karl Lagerfeld himself and took over 680 hours to make? Once thing's for sure: Margot and Chanel make one hell of a fashion team.
