Dakota Fanning Makes an Ethereal Arrival in Asymmetrical Fendi Couture Dress for Netflix’s ‘Ripley’ Red Carpet Premiere
Dakota Fanning embraced monochromatic dressing for the premiere of Netflix’s “Ripley” in Los Angeles on Wednesday.
The actress opted for a layered gown from Fendi’s spring 2024 couture collection, which she styled with Irene Neuwirth jewels and Jimmy Choo heels. Fanning’s asymmetrical frock was crafted with white techno organza.

Stylist Samantha McMillen, whose other clients include Kirsten Dunst and Charles Melton, dressed Fanning for the occasion.
Hairdresser Jenda Alcorn styled the actress’ blond tresses straightened, while makeup artist Erin Ayanian Monroe gave her brown eyeliner, rosy blush and a satin mauve lip.
Last week, Fanning told “The Tonight Show” host Jimmy Fallon about traveling across Italy during the show’s production, calling it “the trip of a lifetime.” The new adaptation of Patricia Highsmith’s 1955 novel “The Talented Mr. Ripley” was filmed in Capri, Venice, Naples and the Amalfi Coast.
For her appearance on the talk show, Fanning sported a red satin dress from John Galliano’s fall 1999 line, courtesy of vintage purveyor Shrimpton Couture.
“The Talented Mr. Ripley” was previously made into a film starring Matt Damon, Cate Blanchett and Gwyneth Paltrow. Fanning will take on the latter’s role as Marge Sherwood in Netflix’s series, which premiered Thursday.
Black-and-white hues were trending throughout awards season after being spotted on the runways of Gucci, Chloé and Carven. Pared-down palettes were popular among attendees at shows like the Golden Globes and the Oscars, with stars including Jennifer Lawrence, Keri Russell and Carey Mulligan partaking in the fad.
