Anya Taylor-Joy is molting for spring. This past February, while promoting her film The Gorge, the actor strutted around New York City dressed in an “exploding shearling” coat from McQueen’s fall 2024 collection. While Taylor-Joy was practically swallowed by her outerwear this past winter, she’s toning things down for spring. Just don’t expect her to ditch the shearling.
Last night, Taylor-Joy and her husband, Malcolm McRae, joined the likes of Bono, Al Pacino, and Baz Luhrmann at the Chateau Marmont for Miley Cyrus’s album listening party. The actor dressed for the cooler mid-60s temperatures in a cream shearling blazer, which she wore over a black tie-neck top and slim-fitting navy trousers. Keeping with the jacket’s coziness, Taylor-Joy added some comfortable footwear: a pair of black elasticated ballet flats with a pull-tab on the heel.
The shearling blazer feels like a more wearable evolution of the more extreme bathrobe trend that gripped celebrities from Rihanna to Angelina Jolie. While she could very easily rock a shearling robe dress to the Chateau Marmont, here, Anya Taylor-Joy is ditching the formal silhouette, but keeping the luxe fabric.
