Charli XCX Plays The ‘Wuthering Heights’ Bride In London

Of course, there was a specific reason that Charli – who did all the original music for the film – and her stylist, Chris Horan, veered so bridal. Any fans of the Emily Brontë book (or the earlier film adaptations) will know that a formal wedding plays a central point in the plot (no spoilers, promise), so you could consider Charli’s bridal garb a form of method dressing – a high-fashion way to point back to the story’s themes.

Then again, someone like Charli doesn’t exactly need an excuse to embrace the theatrical. Throughout the Wuthering Heights press tour, she and Horan have cultivated looks that have nodded to the late 18th-century setting of the film. At the Hollywood premiere last month, she donned a sculptural beige Vivienne Westwood creation that featured a dimensional, bustle-like waistline shape. And, for the photocall, she leaned into black lace, pairing a vintage John Galliano lace top from 2003 with a Saint Laurent skirt.

Her ethereal bridal moment is her best look yet – especially when you consider that she has been juggling another press tour, for her mockumentary, The Moment, at the same time. The fashions simply never stop.
