Emma Corrin reached peak fame just as the coronavirus was really taking over, meaning many of their early career highs (like beating out Olivia Colman for a Golden Globe), have been experienced from behind a Zoom screen. For the Critics Choice Awards in March 2021, when Corrin wore a stunning Schiaparelli Haute Couture dress with an open chest embellished with three-dimensional beading, we had to settle for the photos they posted on Instagram instead of those taken by paparazzi on a traditional red carpet. Thankfully, all is back to normal, and Corrin has rightly taken their place on the fashion stage with statement-making looks from Miu Miu, Loewe, and Prada.

Whether in person or virtual, though, Corrin has proven during their short time in the spotlight, that they have a distinctly British eye for fashion, opting for large collars and all-over plaid whenever possible. The actor has also mixed in the occasional Princess Diana reference here and there (they did play the late Royal in The Crown, after all) as well as a general knack for monochrome tailoring. Below, take a look back at Emma Corrin’s best red carpet style.
