On Monday, September 12, Sydney Sweeney celebrated her two Emmy nominations for “The White Lotus” and “Euphoria” in Los Angeles. After walking the red carpet ahead of the ceremony in a custom Oscar de la Renta design with glittering floral appliqué, the 25-year-old actor changed into a vintage Versace dress in a lovely jade tone to attend HBO’s nomination luncheon at San Vicente Bungalows.
Sweeney’s stylist, Molly Dickson, explained that the star’s gown was purposefully worn backward to highlight the three startling cuts on the chest, bust, and torso. While the floor-sweeping skirt was constructed of gathered satin, the contrasting leather sleeves and thick patent strips sewed across the bodice added an edgier touch. The ensemble was completed with stunning teardrop diamond earrings and Giuseppe Zanotti Bebe platforms.
Sweeney received a full glam makeover for the transition, with hairstylist Glen Coco straightening her waves into a sleek lob with a flip at the end, makeup artist Melissa Hernandez lining her eyes in a smoldering, evening-appropriate cat eye, and manicurist Zola Ganzorigt painting her nails the perfect shade of green.
Sweeney photographed with “Euphoria” co-stars Zendaya (who also donned a sultry Valentino silhouette) and Maude Apatow at the event before heading to New York Fashion Week, where she sat first row at the Tory Burch catwalk show on September 13 to fulfill her duty as brand ambassador.
Check out all angles of Sweeney’s beautifully groomed afterparty ensemble, which she posted on Instagram with the word “ecasrev,” to emphasize that she did, in fact, place her own literal “twist” on this fashion moment from the past.
