Dune: Part Two Press Tour Fashion

Dune: Part Two Press Tour Fashion

By Audrey Cooper

The Dune: Part Two press tour has brought a series of winning looks from its star-studded cast including Zendaya, Timothée Chalamet, Austin Butler, Florence Pugh, and Anya Taylor-Joy. The second film of Denis Villeneuve’s Dune series, Dune: Part Two is set to premiere on March 1, after being delayed due to the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes. The first reactions to last week's world premiere were largely positive, earning 97% on Rotten Tomatoes and 80% on Metacritic. Hollywood’s favorite “it girl” Zendaya has consistently made headlines due to her outstanding looks throughout the press tour, with the other leads earning their fair share of fashion press as well.

London World Premiere

Anya Taylor-Joy in Dior 

In a surprise debut, Anya Taylor-Joy publicly announced her playing a major role in Dune: Part Two by attending the film’s world premiere in London. Taylor-Joy appeared in head-to-toe Dior Couture, wearing an elegant white cape draped over a pleated silk dress. The light tones made the Dior global ambassador appear like an angel as she walked the red carpet. 

Zendaya in vintage Mugler 

The spotlight seems to follow Zendaya anywhere she goes, and rightfully so. Her jaw-dropping chrome bodysuit by Mugler was the talk of the town after the London world premiere. The ensemble was pulled from the fall/winter 1995 Thierry Mugler Couture collection (a piece that has rarely been seen off the runway), and instantly became a sensation. 

Timothée Chalamet in Haider Ackermann 

Although Zendaya stole the show in her vintage bodysuit, Chalamet always dresses to impress. He went back to his roots with this look, wearing his friend Haider Ackermann’s designs at the premiere. Chalamet is featured wearing a boxy black tee, tight silver trousers, and an Arrakis-inspired Cartier necklace designed to appear like a “ring of sand” in correspondence to the sci-fi film. 

Florence Pugh in Valentino 

Florence Pugh wore a custom Valentino brown, hooded sequin dress made by Pierpaolo Piccoli at the London world premiere. The fan-favorite actress stole the spotlight, sharing her Dune moment with her grandmother. 

Austin Butler in Gucci
