Rita Ora brought full fashion drama to the Klara and the Sun premiere at the 2026 BFI London Film Festival, and this was not a look designed to blend in.
The singer stepped out in ArdAzAei Fall 2026 Couture, wearing a black lace gown with intricate floral detailing and a distinctly romantic, almost Victorian mood. On its own, the dress was already striking. But Rita pushed it much further with an archival Philip Treacy Fall 2017 headpiece that completely changed the energy of the look.
The sculptural black creation curved dramatically around her face with sweeping, almost antler like forms, giving the outfit a surreal, theatrical edge. It could easily have overwhelmed the gown, but instead the two pieces worked together beautifully.
That contrast is what made the look memorable. The lace brought softness and old world romance, while the headpiece added something sharper, stranger and far more fashion forward.
Rita was at the premiere supporting her husband, Taika Waititi, but there was nothing secondary about this appearance.
This was one of those rare red carpet moments where styling did more than complete the outfit. It transformed it.
