The 27-year-old looked awe inspiring in a tall feather headpiece which you simply had to see to believe. For her outfit itself, she donned a flowing voluminous white couture gown by Valentino, which featured a keyhole plunge neckline and a tie bow detailing. The reference to this year’s Karl Lagerfeld theme was apparent in her monochrome look.
The Don't Worry Darling star teamed her unique ensemble with round pearl drops and stacks of diamond bracelets on both wrists as well as her signature nose ring. Naturally Florence also dialled up the drama in the beauty department, rocking a long grey manicure, dramatic smokey eye and a dusky rose lip. But the biggest surprise of all? A freshly shaved buzz cut, which is thought to be a transformation she made especially for the event, and a unique way to show off her unusual headgear.
The actress attended the event alongside Pierpaolo Piccioli, the Italian fashion designer has been the creative director of Valentino since 2008 and has worked with Florence on many of her avant-garde looks.
