At The Super Mario Galaxy Movie Kyoto Premiere on March 28, 2026, Anya Taylor Joy wore a Dior Custom Dress with Tiffany and Co. Bird on a Rock diamonds – and the hemline shift changes the red carpet mood.
This is how you make a theme feel elevated instead of literal.
At the Super Mario Galaxy Movie Kyoto Premiere on March 28, 2026, Anya Taylor Joy stepped onto the red carpet in a Dior Custom Dress that turned a playful franchise moment into something closer to couture fantasy.
The silhouette is strapless and sculpted through the bodice, flaring into a dramatic high-low shape that lifts at the front and cascades longer at the back. The fabric reads like a heavily embellished white base layered with delicate pink floral embroidery, almost cherry blossom-inspired against the Kyoto setting. And then there are those dangling appliques at the hem – tiny blooms that move as she walks.
It’s theatrical. In a good way.
The structure is firm through the waist, giving that bell-like volume its shape, but the surface detailing softens it so it never feels costume-y. This is a full-on celebrity look, but it’s controlled. Notice how the shorter front reveals her legs just enough to keep the proportions modern instead of princess-core.
Jewelry is where things turn serious. She wears the Tiffany and Co. Bird on a Rock Wings Pave Necklace in Platinum with Diamonds, the matching Tiffany and Co. Bird on a Rock Wings Wide Ring in Platinum with Diamonds, and a Tiffany and Co. Ring in Platinum with Diamond of over 7 Carats. That’s not subtle sparkle – it’s statement sparkle. And paired with the clean neckline, it works.
But here’s my small hesitation: I keep going back and forth on the hemline volume. I love the drama, yet I wonder if a slightly softer flare would’ve felt even more effortless. Not everyone will agree, but I think the bold shape is what makes this a true fashion moment rather than just another floral gown.
She grounded it with Aquazzura Olie Sandals, delicate and strappy, which was the right move. A heavier shoe would’ve fought the embroidery.
All together, this is strong red carpet fashion – polished, thematic, and undeniably high-impact without crossing into gimmick territory.
Would you keep the dramatic high-low structure, or prefer this Dior piece in a full-length sweep for a cleaner finish?
