Emilia Clarke Wears Dior Pre-Fall 2026 at Variety Power of Women London

Emilia Clarke kept things sleek and dramatic at Variety’s Power of Women event in London on June 3, 2026. The British actress, best known for playing Daenerys Targaryen in Game of Thrones, was among the honorees at Variety’s inaugural London edition, which also highlighted names including Cynthia Erivo, Emma Corrin and Hannah Waddingham.

For the occasion, Emilia wore a Christian Dior Pre-Fall 2026 dress by Jonathan Anderson, and it was the kind of look that didn’t need sparkle to hold attention. The black dress had a high, scarf-like neckline that fell into long satin panels down the front, giving the whole outfit a soft but sculptural shape. The silhouette was loose through the body, with a midi-length hem and a slightly uneven drape that made it feel more modern than classic cocktail dressing.

She styled the look with Jimmy Choo Minny sandals, keeping the shoe choice minimal and delicate. The thin black ankle straps worked well with the clean shape of the dress, while her red pedicure added a small flash of color. Her accessories stayed quiet, which was the right move here, because the shine of the satin already carried the look.

Beauty-wise, Emilia went polished but not overdone. Her blonde bob was worn sleek and straight with a center part, giving the outfit a sharper finish. Soft eye makeup, fresh skin, and a muted lip kept everything elegant and unfussy.

Jonathan Anderson’s early Dior era has been described as a fresh, character-driven take on the house’s wardrobe, and this look fits that mood perfectly. It was understated, yes, but still very much a red carpet moment.
