Mckenna Grace Wears Mint Betsey Johnson Mini Dress on The Today Show

Mckenna Grace turned up at The Today Show in New York on Monday, October 26, looking like she’d stepped out of a fairy-tale picture book. She was there to talk about The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping, and she wore a mint satin mini from Betsey Johnson’s Spring 2015 collection. Yes, that’s an archive piece, which makes it even cooler.

The dress has everything. There are puffed sleeves, a sweetheart neckline with a ruched bodice and a tiny bow at the bust, and a full, flared skirt that stops well above the knee. A small flower corsage in pink and red sits at one hip. Mckenna skipped the petticoat that came with the runway version, so the skirt looks lighter and swishier. The satin catches the light every time she moves, and that’s most of the charm.

Her hair and makeup kept up with the theme. She wore her long blonde hair in loose waves with soft bangs, pinned back with two pale blue butterfly clips. Makeup stayed fresh and rosy, with pink cheeks and a glossy pink lip.

Then came the accessories. She finished the look with floral-embellished pale pink Betsey Johnson slingbacks, a sparkly pink and red butterfly clutch on a slim chain and layered Pandora necklaces. The butterfly bag was a Judith Leiber crystal clutch. She added a few small rings and pink hoop earrings. Her stylist, Molly Dickson, is known for a love of vintage fashion, and you can tell.

The flowers and butterflies aren’t random. Fans think the styling is a sly nod to the franchise, where nature isn’t always friendly, and they even spotted a possible Rue tribute. Mckenna has been working that angle all press tour long. She wore Vera Wang lace for the Hunger Games Sydney tour and an archival Monique Lhuillier gown inspired by Katniss’s wedding dress in Paris.

For anyone catching up, Mckenna is the American actress who first got attention in Gifted, then played Phoebe in Ghostbusters: Afterlife and Frozen Empire. She’s also known for Young Sheldon, The Handmaid’s Tale and The Haunting of Hill House. She’s still only 20 and already on her own style streak.
