A whole bunch of stars stepped out onto the Venice Film Festival red carpet for the premiere of Frankenstein and we all have a responsibility to let them know what we think of their outfits. Let’s get to work, shall we?
Aaron Taylor-Johnson in Giorgio Armani
Is this theme-dressing? Did he come as the Wolfman? Everything below the neck looks fine. We’re hoping everything above the neck is for a role.
Callum Turner in Louis Vuitton
He looks great, of course, but we don’t think the shoes work. It’s a fun attempt to modernize a classic, but they really don’t look like they go. The corsage is a nice touch.
Christoph Waltz
It’s a beautifully tailored tux, but we’d have liked a white shirt with it.
Felix Kammerer
The jacket is too long and the stripe instantly lowers the fineness factor. There’s formalwear and there are military uniforms, but attempts to blur the line between the two tend not to work all that well – especially if you’re going to wear a sweater with all of it. Just an odd collection of elements that don’t pull together.
Jacob Elordi in Bottega Veneta
Can’t really argue with that, but most of these guys need their pants hemmed.
Jesse Williams in Trussardi
He looks fine – in every sense of the word.
Leslie Bibb in Armani Privé
It’s pretty, but the top is too small on her and we don’t think the color story works all that well for her. She’s a little too pale for it.
Mia Goth in Christian Dior
The skirt drapes beautifully (even if she can only take tiny steps in it), but we hate those spaghetti straps. With the exception of the necklace, everything above the waist comes off too casual. She needed a little zhuzhing in the hair and makeup departments.
Oscar Isaac in Valentino
Hot as hell. The polka dots are a masterful touch — and demonstrate one of the few ways to work a tux without a tie. Our only quibble is that he needs a belt.
Paris Jackson in Trussardi
Girl, that’s way too much leather for August.
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley in Armani Privé
It’s extremely tacky, but also kind of fabulous.
ABOUT THE MOVIE:
Oscar-winning director Guillermo del Toro (Pinocchio, Cabinet of Curiosities, The Shape of Water) adapts Mary Shelley’s classic tale of Victor Frankenstein, a brilliant but egotistical scientist who brings a creature to life in a monstrous experiment that ultimately leads to the undoing of both the creator and his tragic creation.

Joining that main trio are Felix Kammerer (All Quiet on the Western Front), Lars Mikkelsen (The Witcher, Ahsoka), David Bradley (Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio, the Harry Potter films), Christian Convery (Sweet Tooth), with Charles Dance (Game of Thrones, Mank) and Christoph Waltz (Inglourious Basterds, Django Unchained).
