In the age of the sartorial method, press tours are hyper-literal, with celebrities dressing up as their characters or adopting their film’s visual motifs. But Kristen Stewart, dressed through Tara Swennen, recently showed us how to dress sparingly.
Stewart just wrapped up the promotional excursion for her new film, Love Lies Bleeding, a sexy, sweaty mystery centered on Lou, Stewart’s gym manager, and Katy O’Brian’s bodybuilder, Jackie. When thinking about how to dress for a movie set in Largely in a 1980s gym, Stewart and Swennen sought to give a nod to the background without overdoing it. I approached her to get dressed [considering] that the film is about bodybuilding, athletics and the concept of the love story, all “So when we think of looks, we focus on the concept of a fun look with a romantic twist, yet challenging, but at the same time decidedly sexy. “The garments also reflect Stewart’s own catharsis. “As an actor, you play that character for a while and then when you go on a press field trip, you put it back into nature,” he says.
The press tour has officially started on the festival circuit. At Sundance, comfort was key given the inclement weather, but it was also where Stewart leaned into gym rat territory, dressed in a white muscle T-shirt with red-and-white striped sweatpants. and Adidas Superstars. Over time, however, the sporty references become a little more indirect, such as Chanel’s leg warmers and Camp Stewart’s swim top. At the Berlinale festival, she began experimenting with tights, a recurring piece in her press tour looks. – dressed in white stockings under her Chanel skirt.
“We’ve never really used hoses,” he says, Swennen. Es’s very difficult to locate a pipe that no longer has a control system, so we thought: Let’s take a look at it. I love its private touch. The duo’s long-term private dates (Swennen has been dressing Stewart since the actor was 14) contribute to the final product. “For us, it’s been a collaboration,” he says. It’s one of the most productive appointments I’ve had in my career as a designer. “
As the film grew in popularity, the looks began to get wilder. At the Los Angeles premiere, Stewart wore an ultra-low-cut Bettter suit that mimicked a wrestling T-shirt, with the more sensible stockings of his stockings prominently exposed. Swennen repeated this effect in nude tights underneath warm Brunello Cucinelli braided knit shorts. With that same outfit, she exposed Stewart’s bare bra. “We made the decision to play with the bases, using the basics less as substructures of the look, but depending on them as a focus” [We weren’t using it] necessarily as outerwear, but with this juxtaposition of something a little tough, but feminine, that comes from unforeseen places. “
Stewart’s visibly bolder and sexier taste made headlines last week. Between the unbuttoned Tibi cardigan, the latex suspenders and the Monôt halter in pearls that betray a nipple trace, the actor has taken a giant leap in his fashion. “For us, there’s a good “You see dressing [nudity] in a safe way, but seeing a little touch of sophancy that you can play with, or a little nod to this or that,” says the stylist.

Swennen cites Stewart’s canopy for Rolling Stone, which features the actor in an open leather vest and his hand tucked into a pair of white boxer shorts, as a turning point. (She points out that she didn’t test the canopy. ) That’s why I love Kristen: She likes to push boundaries, whether it’s in her potential fashion choices or just the things she does,” she says. From that point on, focusing Stewart’s quotes on sexuality (regardless of the film’s queer character) has become a key component of his taste. “It was whatever concept we were betting on as well, this concept [that] we as women can be sexual in our own way, and in our own way, we decided to show it,” she says.
The secret to dressing in those looks, Swennen says, is Stewart’s self-confidence, which allowed her to wear those ambitious outfits with ease: “She’s in a beautiful position [in her life], so she radiates good looks, authenticity and strength. “, and I just wanted to play with that.
