Emilia Jones Debuts Noir Edge at TIFF’s “Charlie Harper” Portrait Studio

The outfit unfolds like a mood board for modern noir. Jones wears an Alexander McQueen Belt Detail Leather Jacket in black—structured, cinched, and unapologetically sharp. The jacket’s matte finish and sculptural tailoring echo McQueen’s legacy of armor-as-elegance, while the belt detail adds a utilitarian edge that feels more Berlin than Beverly Hills. Beneath it, the Wool Gabardine Pencil Skirt (also McQueen) anchors the silhouette with a clean, architectural line—no frills, no fuss, just form.

Her co-star, casually draped in a multicolored argyle sweater and denim, offers a visual foil: collegiate softness against Jones’s editorial severity. But it’s Emilia’s pose—shoulders squared, gaze direct, arm gently looped—that sets the tone. There’s intimacy, yes, but also a kind of cinematic detachment. Think Rooney Mara in Carol, but with a Gen Z pulse.
