The Actserves as the actor’s first big movie tour – so both she and Eng wanted to pull out all the stops for it. “Even though Joey’s been working in this business since the age of four, this was her very first international press tour, and an incredibly exciting time for her,” says Eng. “It can be intimidating to be on a red carpet alongside Hollywood heavyweights like Brad Pitt and Aaron Taylor-Johnson, so I wanted Joey to be able to hold her own.
The goal was to “inject life into vegan leather pantsuits, masculine shirts and ties, strong chunky jewellery and platform shoes,” says Eng. So far, the pair has succeeded. At the film screening in London, for one, King wore Marc Jacobs’s blue bodysuit and printed floor-length skirt, finished off with leather gloves and slicked-back hair. At a photocall earlier that day, she wore a mini
black dress with a triangular bra top, finished off with sheer tights and platform boots . A few days prior in Berlin, she also wore all-black looks that were anything but boring: They included Balenciaga’s wide-leg jumpsuit, and Paco Rabanne’s satiny, buttoned-up dress. It’s hard to make a mostly-black tour wardrobe memorable, but these ensembles have been all about impactful shapes.
Last week in Paris, King played with more refined – but tough – detailing. She wore a sheer Thom Browne dress with a strapless corset and pleated skirt overlay. Her vegan leather Material suit, complete with a strappy Didu bra top underneath, was the right combination of sexy and classic. Eng says King has been game for experimenting – and it’s a refreshing approach that more Hollywood stars should be taking.
Fashion is supposed to be fun, and Eng certainly agrees. “She’s learning more and more about looking visually interesting but tasteful – balancing a look’s femininity and masculinity, as well as having hair and make-up pull a look together,” Eng says. “This press tour has given Joey the chance to show people that she is a true chameleon, and capable of pulling off more than just your average pretty dress, pretty hair, and pretty makeup.
