This also means people wear long dresses and opera gloves – clothing which clings to the conventions of the beau monde – while they repeat the phrase “Old Hollywood” in fashion interviews, because tradition equals legitimate.
Anne Hathaway – who has played the doomed grisette and has the Best Supporting Actress Oscar to prove it – does not seem to care about any of this. (At least not while she is promoting her new rom-com, The Idea of You, which is based on some 2017 Harry Styles fan-fiction.) “For some reason, we talk about coming-of-age stories as being something that happens to you in the earliest part of your life, and I don’t know about you, but I feel like I keep blooming,” she said at the film’s premiere this weekend. “I don’t want to be pigeonholed and don’t want to be placed in a box of what type of films I have to be making because of my age, gender, and because I won an Oscar. I want to have fun, dammit!”
That is a sentiment that could also be applied to Hathaway’s wardrobe. Last night, she wore a crystal-embellished minidress from Patou’s spring/summer 2024 collection with Aquazzura platforms and a smattering of Bulgari jewels. She looked like she was perhaps celebrating her birthday in a metropolitan cocktail bar, drawing on the sort of sequin-embroidered glamour enjoyed by Amal Clooney: a woman who long ago proved that flirty and feminine clothing need not detract from someone’s professional achievements.
