The stars of the upcoming series The Other Bennett Sister came out in quirky Brit style for the New York premiere.
Evidently they were in a brown sort of mood.
Ella Bruccoleri
This is a pretty cute look for her. The brown gingham is fun but not overly frivolous, which makes it a good pairing with those ass-kicker boots. They pretty much make the look. We could do without the green panel, which does nothing for the design, and the clutch doesn’t go with the rest of the style at all, but we really like this look. It suits her and it doesn’t feel generic.
Laurie Davidson and Dónal Finn
We could get behind Laurie’s whole 1975 deal if he’d just switch the shirt out for a less drab color. A stripe or plaid would not have been out of place. We like the unusual shape of Dónal’s suit, but those pants pretty much require boots and much like his co-star, we think the rather drab shirt brings the look down.
ABOUT THE SERIES:
THE OTHER BENNET SISTER reimagines Jane Austen’s world through the eyes of Mary Bennet (Ella Bruccoleri, Call the Midwife), placing the often-overlooked sister at the center of a fresh Regency-era story of love, ambition and self-discovery. A breakout hit in the UK, the series became the BBC’s biggest new drama launch in the past year, and now arrives in North America on BritBox. Featuring a standout ensemble cast including Ruth Jones (Gavin & Stacey) as Mrs. Bennet – also appearing on On the Box: The BritBox Podcast on May 4 – THE OTHER BENNET SISTER premieres May 6.
The story begins at Longbourn, the Bennet family home, where Mr. and Mrs Bennet preside over a lively household of five unmarried daughters: Jane, Elizabeth, Mary, Kitty, and Lydia. As society’s pressures mount, the Bennet sisters navigate the glittering yet precarious world of Regency England, where marriage is both aspiration and necessity. While her sisters pursue romance and social triumph, Mary embarks on a very different path. Leaving Longbourn behind, she travels to London to live with her aunt and uncle, Mr. and Mrs. Gardiner, in their elegant home on Gracechurch Street. There, Mary begins a journey of self-discovery, stepping out of the shadows and into her own story. Iconic settings from Pride and Prejudice, include the Meryton Assembly Ball and the Netherfield Ball, where fortunes and futures are decided under glittering chandeliers.
The series stars Ella Bruccoleri (Call the Midwife, Bridgerton) as Mary Bennet, Ruth Jones (Gavin & Stacey, Stella), Richard E. Grant (Withnail & I, Can You Ever Forgive Me?), Indira Varma (Obi-Wan Kenobi, The Night Manager), Richard Coyle (Heads of State, The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina), Tanya Reynolds (The Decameron, Sex Education), Dónal Finn (The Wheel of Time, SAS Rogue Heroes), Varada Sethu (Doctor Who, Andor), and Laurie Davidson (A Cruel Love: The Ruth Ellis Story, The Girlfriend). Maddie Close (Sunflower Child), Poppy Gilbert (My Oxford Year, Chloe), Molly Wright (The A Word, APOSTASY), and Grace Hogg-Robinson (The Coroner, COBRA) round out the cast as the Jane, Lizzie, Kitty, and Lydia Bennet, respectively.
