Naomi Scott Stuns in Androgynous Erdem Ensemble at ‘Smile 2’ Premiere
Naomi Scott recently attended the special screening of “Smile 2” at the Odeon Luxe Leicester Square in London. Known for her previous romantic red carpet looks, the British actress and singer showcased a markedly different style, wearing an outfit from the Erdem Spring 2025 collection. The event took place despite the wet London weather, highlighting Scott’s evolution in fashion preferences.
The ensemble marked a departure from Erdem’s typical romantic attire. Naomi opted for an androgynous look that still incorporated Erdem’s characteristic romanticism but merged it with masculine tailoring and 1920s influences. The sharp blazer she wore was notable for its canvas patch on the cuff, featuring a typewritten title page of “The Well of Loneliness“. This detail underscored the collection’s exploration of gender and identity themes.
The blend of contrasting elements in her outfit, such as the structured blazer with a soft lace dress, created a dynamic interplay between masculine and feminine aesthetics. This juxtaposition made for a successful transition onto the red carpet, demonstrating Erdem’s creative prowess as well as Naomi’s evolving fashion sense.
Adding to her modern appearance, Scott debuted a pixie haircut, enhancing the overall edgy vibe of her ensemble. By maintaining a minimalistic style, she allowed the garments to communicate the narrative of Erdem’s collection effectively. Naomi’s risk-taking approach signals her willingness to experiment intellectually with red carpet fashion, moving beyond traditional boundaries.
Joining Naomi at the premiere was her co-star Lukas Gage. The 29-year-old actor displayed gallant behavior, helping his fellow actress by adjusting her dress during the photoshoot. Additionally, the attendees included the director and writer of the film, who returned to helm the sequel after the original “Smile” film achieved significant success, grossing $217 million worldwide on a modest $17 million budget.
