Elle Fanning Wore Bottega Veneta To The London Photocall For ‘A Complete Unknown’

Elle Fanning is back on the promotional circuit, this time in London for the press tour of ‘A Complete Unknown,’ the Bob Dylan biopic already generating Oscar buzz.

Starring in the film alongside Timothée Chalamet (Bob Dylan) and playing Dylan’s girlfriend Sylvie Russo, Elle brought a fresh energy to the photocall at the Ham Yard Hotel on Monday, stepping out in a look that felt like a deliberate departure from her usual aesthetic.

You might recall Elle’s last Bottega Veneta suit moment at the Venice Film Festival, where she radiated summer sophistication. This time, she opted for a Bottega Veneta Resort 2025 grey wool tailoring suit paired with a red and white striped cotton shirt. The vibe couldn’t be more different, and that’s precisely what makes it so compelling.

In the context of a film titled ‘A Complete Unknown,’ this outfit felt like a symbolic leap into uncharted territory for Elle. For years, her style has been synonymous with ethereal gowns, delicate palettes, and hyper-feminine silhouettes. Here, she embraced boxy tailoring and menswear-inspired proportions—a bold move that now challenges our perception of how this press tour might pan out.

Interestingly, this blazer’s oversized, structured silhouette aligns with a growing trend, as we saw Sharon Stone explore similar proportions in her Dolce & Gabbana suit this past weekend. On Elle, the look feels modern and refreshing.

For those who’ve long wished Elle would veer away from neutral palettes and gala-ready glamour, this suit might feel like a victory. But for others, the stark departure could feel like it ventures a step too far into the “unknown.”

Finishing her look with Bottega Veneta Madame loafers, Elle may have set the tone for this ‘A Complete Unknown’ press tour.
