We expect quite a lot from a Bond girl in the style stakes. Being able to rock a red carpet full-glamour gown as well as a skin tight sexy number and a skimpy lingerie set or bikini is a notable prerequisite, which is why we’ve been keeping a beady eye on Skyfall beauties Naomie Harris and Bérénice Marlohe as they’ve been flitting from photocalls to premieres.
Naomie Harris set the fashion stakes high by choosing Greco-Austrian designer Marios Schwab for both the London red carpet premiere and the New York photocall for the new James Bond film. Her premiere outfit, taken from Schwab’s SS12 collection, was a sheer black floor-skimming dress worn over a shimmering iridescent sequinned bodice and set the premiere alight last night.
Meanwhile earlier in New York, Naomie sported an edgy little black Marios Schwab dress which she paired with equally fashion-forward Camilla Skovgaard cut-out ankle boots and a silver choker by jewellery designer Jordan Askill.
Switching her attentions away from Schwab, Naomie opted for a full-sleeved woollen white Chanel dress and black and white monochromatic Pierre Hardy laced courts for Skyfall’s London photocall.
Meanwhile, French actress Bérénice Marlohe opted for an altogether more classic style for the Skyfall tour. At the New York photocall the French actress proved that you can do sexy without flashing acres of skin in a tweed military style Salvatore Ferragamo coat and brown knee high boots.
Continuing the somewhat chaste style for the London photocall Bérénice wore a Dolce & Gabbana tweed shift dress and black Sergio Rossi pumps.
We love the fact that the French actress then opted for a classic British design icon to dress her for the Skyfall London premiere, and totally rocked the scarlet red Vivienne Westwood corset gown and Stephen Webster earrings.
