Maisie Williams Channels Sandra Bullock's 1990s Style for Practical Magic 2 Press Tour
For the press tour of the highly anticipated sequel Practical Magic 2, Maisie Williams has been paying homage to her co-star Sandra Bullock by wearing looks inspired by Bullock's past red carpet appearances. The film, which also stars Nicole Kidman and newcomers Joey King and Maisie Williams, arrives in theaters on September 11. Williams, working with stylist Dino Bonačić, has been treating Bullock as a personal muse and archive, pulling looks directly inspired by her. At the London premiere, Williams wore a custom red Ellie Misner top and skirt inspired by a two-piece set Bullock wore to the 1999 premiere of Forces of Nature, updated with a corset and Bvlgari high jewelry rubellite pieces. For the London photo call, Williams wore an actual dress from Bullock's wardrobe: a black off-the-shoulder gown Bullock wore to the 2006 premiere of Infamous in New York City. The dress had no label, so its designer remains unknown. Williams added vintage brooches, layered necklaces, a silver Simuero choker, witchy moon earrings from Awe Inspired, and patent leather Louboutins. Bullock was surprised by the first homage but was excited when she learned she was the reference. Williams expressed her love for archival and vintage designs, noting that wearing pieces inspired by people she loves made it more special.
