Here's What Makes Keira Knightley's Dress Different From the Rest

Award season and movie premieres bring many red carpets and plenty of standout looks we can't stop buzzing about. One thing we can always be sure of is that Keira Knightley will show up in a feminine, voluminous dress. The actress consistently taps her favorite fashion houses for unmissable pieces. She chooses Valentino when she's in the mood for embroidery and British label Erdem for romantic florals. In fact, Canadian designer Erdem Moralioglu spoke to Porter magazine about working with the star:

"Keira Knightley loves that I put pockets on dresses for her. When you realize how someone feels about walking the red carpet and being photographed from all angles, it's nice to arm them with something that makes them feel relaxed. When I'm wearing a suit, I will put my hands in my pockets and immediately feel relaxed, and I want to make women feel comfortable, too. I love the idea that the silhouette changes when your hands are in your pockets. Your shoulders relax and you become a bit cooler."

After some investigative research, we can confirm that Keira definitely does look cooler when she's making use of her pockets. While she most frequently wears Erdem, she's worn one Alexis Mabille number equipped with pockets, too. Read on for a glimpse at Keira's most effortless gowns, and see how she shines, even though she might be hiding away her bracelets and rings, if only for a moment.
