We can go months without a sighting of Emma Watson and then suddenly, she steps out in an outfit that reminds us just how brilliant her fashion choices are. While attending the Caring for Women dinner in New York on Thursday night, Watson opted for a classic black blazer and whimsical, almost bridal white lace dress with cutout back. She might be based Stateside, but Watson was sure to add a London edge to her get-up with a pair of chunky platform sandals and a studded clutch bag—the perfect balance of edgy and pretty.
Though sightings of Emma may be few and far between, we have a real understanding of her personal style. More often than not, Watson sticks to monochromatic looks, mostly black and white combinations, and always with edgy accessories that ground more feminine pieces. Take her striking blazer, white shirt and skinny jeans combination for Elsa Schiaparelli’s Haute Couture show in July, or last year’s red carpet look for the Eartshot Prize ceremony. Right now, we’re planning to recreate this look for all our evening plans.
