Actors Jenna Ortega , Amy Adams and Taika Waititi attended the screening of their upcoming film Klara and the Sun in New York City. Both Jenna and Amy chose stunning gowns: Jenna wore a handmade Elias Matso dress made of steel rods, while Amy opted for a sleek, elegant black-and-white dress by Rosie Assoulin.
Jenna Ortega’s handmade dress made with steel rods is from designer Elias Matso’s Melt With Me collection. It is a corseted gown made with cotton coutil, viscose jersey, hand-cut and tipped steel spiral boning, and 6,500 crystal beads mounted on steel galvanised wire.
Creating the ensemble required a labour-intensive technique, according to the designer.
After many blisters, rebuilds, failed trials, international shipping nightmares, and working on it in 6 different cities with so many helping hands, it just exists. Amy chose a black-and-white look from designer Rosie Assoulin’s Spring Summer 2027 Ready-To-Wear collection. Klara and the Sun is a dystopian drama based on Nobel Prize-winning author Kazuo Ishiguro’s 2021 bestseller of the same name. The film is set for a theatrical release on October 23.

She styled the ensemble with centre-parted loose tresses and gold stacked rings, further elevated with glam featuring gold eyeshadow, a gloss mauve pink lip shade, mascara-coated lashes, smudged kohl, feathered brows, and rouge-tinted cheeks. The ensemble features a boat neckline, full-length sleeves with flared ends in contrasting white silk, a tailored silhouette accentuating Amy’s curves, and an ankle-length hem. She styled the ensemble with a statement ring adorned with an aquamarine stone, matching earrings, and pointed black heels. For her hair, she styled it in a centre-parted, half-tied hairdo to create a sleek look and show off her jewellery. Feathered brows, winged eyeliner, mascara-coated lashes, rouged cheeks, a glossy pink lip shade, and soft highlighter on the contours. The film is set in a technologically advanced future. Jenna Ortega plays Klara, an outdated model of an Artificial Friend, an android companion whose sell-by date is fast approaching when, to her relief, teenager Josie and her mother buy her.
