Emma Thompson in Maria Grachvogel at the 2014 Jameson Empire Film Awards

Y’know? That wacky English aunt is getting a hell of a lot better at dressing up lately.

It’s still too tight – like almost everything she wears – and she still hasn’t learned the importance of eschewing footwear that causes pain visible from ten feet away, but her polish is off the charts. If we didn’t know better, we’d swear she was gunning for a major award, except awards season is pretty much over (sorry, Empire Awards). Bear in mind she dressed like this less than a month ago. It’s like someone took her by the shoulders and said, “Emma, Emma, Emma. You can do so much better, darling.”

We would like to shake that no doubt kindly queen’s hand.

Granted, this is a little dull and Miss Emma has more than made it clear that she likes to dress, well, wacky, so we’d hate to see a dampening of her spirits, so to speak. But this is a step in the right direction. Her kindly queen will take her by the hand and slowly teach her about pattern and color, we’re sure. We hope.
