Daisy Edgar-Joness Fringed Dress Is By A New Vogue Favorite

Marsh girl Kya, her character in the big-screen adaptation of Where the Crawdads Sing, spends most of her time in worn dungarees, but Daisy Edgar-Joness real-world wardrobe is decidedly more glamorous. For an appearance on the red carpet at the Locarno Film Festival in Switzerland, the British star chose a fringed and floral dress by Conner Ives, the designer behind the upcycled T-shirt dresses team Vogue has been wearing all summer.

Outside of Vogue House, the sustainably-minded American designer who was hired by Rihanna to work on her Fenty line while he was still at Central Saint Martins is fast becoming a go-to for Britain’s brightest young things: Simone Ashley wore his delicate yellow dress to a British Fashion Council X Vogue cocktail earlier this year, and another full look from Ivess autumn/winter 2022 collection to hang out with Jacob Elordi at the Monaco Grand Prix.

Edgar-Joness fresh spin on the LBD echoed the dresses in Ivess runway debut, which were crafted from upcycled piano shawls. She added Jimmy Choo sandals and Tiffany & Co. jewelery for the festival, where she picked up the Leopard Club Award. Its the latest in a string of plaudits for the actor, who has been on an unstoppable trajectory since her breakout performance opposite Paul Mescal in Normal People. But Daisys interesting red-carpet choices from Fendi bralettes to neon tweed Versace should be applauded, too.
