When it comes to red carpet moments, Emma Stone knows how to strike the perfect balance between drama and ease—and her latest look at the 2025 BFI London Film Festival premiere of Bugonia proved it once again. Dressed in a custom Louis Vuitton gown the exact shade of autumn sunset, the Oscar winner gave a masterclass in how to do seasonal dressing without losing an ounce of sophistication.

Styled by her longtime collaborator Petra Flannery, Stone’s gown—a creation by Louis Vuitton creative director Nicolas Ghesquière—was a study in quiet luxury. The sleek column silhouette featured delicate spaghetti straps and a straight neckline, but it was the open back that added a whisper of sensuality. Draped over her shoulders, a matching shawl cascaded down her arms, creating movement as she glided along the red carpet.
Her accessories were kept minimal but striking: chunky gold hoops, a warm copper bob styled with a deep side part, and a crimson lip that deepened the glow of her naturally radiant complexion. The color story—fiery orange, gleaming gold, and subtle red—was pure October magic, and a perfect nod to the season’s unofficial palette.
Stone’s look also paid homage to her latest collaboration with filmmaker Yorgos Lanthimos, Bugonia—a darkly comedic, high-concept remake of the 2003 South Korean cult classic Save the Green Planet!. The film, which releases on Halloween, stars Stone as a woman caught in a bizarre conspiracy, alongside Jesse Plemons and rising actor Aidan Delbis. If the film is anything like her premiere look, expect something bold, unexpected, and unforgettable.
