Camila Mendes Channels Angelina Jolie in White Anna October Gown at ‘Masters Of The Universe’ UK Premiere
Camila Mendes wowed at the ‘Masters Of The Universe’ UK premiere in a white Anna October gown inspired by Angelina Jolie’s iconic 2004 Oscars look.
Camila Mendes brought effortless old-Hollywood glamour to the UK premiere of Masters Of The Universe in London, stepping onto the red carpet in a silky white Anna October gown that instantly reminded fashion fans of Angelina Jolie’s unforgettable Marc Bouwer Oscars dress from 2004.
The actress, best known for playing Veronica Lodge on Riverdale, has slowly become one of the most consistent dressers on the red carpet, and this look felt like another major fashion moment for her growing style archive. Mendes attended the premiere of the highly anticipated fantasy film, where she stars as Teela opposite Nicholas Galitzine’s He-Man.
Her Anna October gown was simple at first glance, but the details made it unforgettable. The liquid-like white silk fabric draped softly across her body, creating a fluid silhouette that moved beautifully under the lights. The plunging halter neckline reached dramatically low, while gathered knot detailing at the waist added shape and texture without taking away from the minimalist feel of the dress.
There was something very intentionally nostalgic about the look. The soft ivory tone, deep neckline, and barely-there styling all echoed the glamorous simplicity of Angelina Jolie’s famous satin Marc Bouwer gown from the 76th Academy Awards. But Camila made it feel younger and fresher with her sleek short bob and modern beauty styling.
Instead of heavy accessories, she kept things refined with gold jewelry, including a sculptural necklace featuring a large pale stone centerpiece that sat perfectly against the neckline of the dress. Her makeup stayed warm and bronzed, with softly defined eyes and nude lips that matched the understated elegance of the outfit.
The entire look felt polished without trying too hard, which honestly suits Camila Mendes perfectly. In an era where red carpet dressing often leans overly dramatic, this was a reminder that simplicity can still completely steal the spotlight.
