“Dune 2” was not broadcast before the fire, and the outside of the play was more wonderful than the inside.

To say the most anticipated movie of 2024, I believe “Dune 2” (Dune:Part Two) is definitely the first choice for sci-fi fans. The global box office of “Dune”, which was previously announced to be re-released, has exceeded 30 million US dollars, and “Dune 2” has a great reputation after its premiere. The freshness of rotten tomatoes has always been maintained at 97%.

“A milestone of the same type of work”, “A true epic”, “This is the second half of a legendary story”… After watching the premiere, a group of film critics almost invariably praised the film.

On the other hand, although it has not yet been released, it has already earned enough attention during the global publicity activities of the crew.

Especially at the premiere of the movie in London, the Zendaya appeared in a stunning appearance in Mugler’s classic “armor suit”, which attracted everyone’s attention.

This fashion is from Mugler’s autumn 1995 haute couture collection. The shape is very futuristic, and the carefully designed incision emphasizes the human body curve. Zendaya did not match the same helmet in the show, but appeared in a low ponytail dish and wore a Bulgari necklace to increase the gorgeous feeling of the overall shape.

In addition, another surprise at the London premiere was the appearance of Anya Taylor-Joy. Although there were rumors that she would play, the authorities have always chosen to keep it a secret. Now it is confirmed that she has played in the film, which is another reason for fans to watch Dune 2.
She appeared in a pure white dress at the scene, with an elegant long dress with a very amorous veil, which is undoubtedly very “sand dunes”.

Looking back on the entire publicity period of the crew, it was actually the high-level fashion modeling of several leading actors that came out of the circle. Almost every collective appearance is full of high-level feeling, even compared with the star-studded heavyweight red carpet at the end of the year.

As the main force of publicity, several youth actors, Zendaya, Timothée Chalamet, Florence Pugh and Austin Butler, are all online at all times, and the instant shooting is a big movie.

From promoting the first Dune movie three years ago, Zendaya worked with stylist Law Roach to create a number of impressive looks.

And this time, Law Roach is also solely responsible for the modeling of this publicity period. The Zendaya was paired with a series of themed outfits. “We adopted the method of themed dressing. These shapes continue the clothing style in the film. This is intentional and the purpose is clear.” Roach explained his styling philosophy during an interview with VOGUE.

image

In order to highlight the sense of future and science fiction, Roach expanded his vision to the whole history of fashion, and even more so to present to the public the excellent fashion works that can perfectly express science fiction futurism in his mind.

image

In addition to the “mechanical girl” style of fashion master Thierry Mugler, he also chose the “circuit board” suit suit designed by Alexander McQueen during his tenure in Givenchy, which came from the Givenchy’s 1999 autumn clothing series. As a fashion show at the end of the century, he expressed his curiosity and fear for the future through design.

Roach bought this suit from an ancient shopkeeper for this look. There is also a little-known detail. The printed part of the circuit board on the dress is actually made of special materials, which will brighten with the light on the spot, which is very dreamy.

image

In addition to the futuristic feature of science fiction, deconstructed dresses that emphasize silhouettes are also the focus of this Zendaya. For example, during the publicity in Mexico, she was wearing a very “wasteful” dress with a twisted and high slit design with great memory. It was customized by London designer Torishé ju Dumi’s brand of the same name, which was also the first red carpet show of this independent brand.

Also in Mexico City, another Army Green dress customized by Bottega Veneta follows a similar design idea, with the tone complementing the desert environment featured in the movie.

Fashion honor student Zendaya

Roach’s favorite set is a two-piece gold suit custom-made by Louis Vuitton worn at the Paris premiere in Zendaya.

“I referred to one of the early series of Nicolas Ghesqui ère around 2020.” He said when talking about the final design. Although the high waist design seems to be a relatively “young” design method, the details such as color matching or three-dimensional neckline are very “sand dunes”.

image

At the Paris premiere, Roach chose another Alaïa white dress. This dress wrapped her body like a “snake” and was 3D printed. It was very architectural and futuristic.

image

In new york, the last stop of the publicity tour, Zendaya also performed a white dress from Stéphane Rolland’s spring 2024 series, which was embellished with sharp hollow patterns and 3D printed edges.

In addition to these gorgeous costumes that are only suitable for various concave poses, Roach has also prepared many more regular costumes for the convenience of Zendaya viewing and action.

The Zendaya at the London premiere performed a simple Mugler 2024 early autumn series black skirt with suspenders and Roksanda dark suit, which was beautiful and rustling.

image

During the Seoul press conference, the Zendaya even wore a one-piece leather garment from the South Korea designer brand Juun.J. The “sweet tea” Timothée Chalamet also wore a couple’s style, one powder and one blue, which was very eye-catching.

image

In addition to the fashion top student Zendaya, the other actors in this crew also have “fashionable essence”, and they also contributed many beautiful pictures during the promotion of this tour.

image

The Anya Taylor-Joy mentioned earlier is needless to say. Almost every red carpet look is excellent. During this movie tour, in addition to the above group of pure white looks, the Maison Margiela high-setting dress performed at the end of the publicity in new york was also well received.

The mystery about Anya’s role in the film is also gradually revealed. She plays Alia Atreides, and Paul Atreides (played by Sweet Tea), the unborn sister, appears in his vision.

image

Another one of the new starring Florence Pugh is to present a variety of different fashion charm for everyone.

From the beginning of shooting the publicity poster, she chose the Rabanne two styles with completely different styles. The chain armor design fashion Rabanne is good at has a sense of vanguard and future, while the pure white linen style clothing has a sense of desert atmosphere.

image

It is not difficult to find that most of the styles she chooses are with hooded designs, and the other Valentino haute couture red dress dress is still the same. The blessing of sequins makes this dress more gorgeous.

image

She plays Princess Irulan, the daughter of Emperor Shaddam IV, and each chapter in the original novel Dune begins with her narration of the events in the book. She has received special training since birth, and she can see things that neither her father nor her mysterious mentor can detect.

image

There is also a newly-added temperament actress, Léa Seydoux. Although there are relatively few highlights in the publicity period, her aura is not reduced at all.

image

This time, she plays Mrs. Margot Fenring, a member of Bene Gesserit’s family and a close friend of the emperor. Although she even bluntly said that she had not read the novel in the movie promotion film, her performance strength is naturally beyond doubt and is worth looking forward.

image

Rebecca Ferguson, the Jessica lady who created many fashion “famous scenes” in the first film, seems to have a very different look in the second film from before, but she can’t help but make people more curious about her role. Development.

image

In the publicity scene outside the play, her appearance this time is also a set of more interesting, sometimes elegant, sometimes punk, even with the white and beautiful fairy Anya in the same frame has not been compared at all.

image

Finally, let’s take a look at the two actors. Although most of the looks are quite satisfactory, there are also some eye-catching looks.

The first set is Prada, which is worn by sweet tea in the Mexican premiere. The cut-off gray suit jacket is matched with a black shirt. It looks simple but unexpected everywhere. The collarless shirt, the sleeve of the jacket and the belt tied on the outside of the jacket are pioneers without losing their noble spirit.

image

The other set is Austin Butler’s Gucci style, with classic white vest and high-heeled boots, simple but very able to show personal fashion attributes.

image

Austin Butler is also a new addition to the season, in which he plays Feyd-Rautha and is the planned heir to the Harkonnen family.

image

Domestic audiences may not be very familiar with him, but in fact, as early as 2022, he became a hit with the release of “Elvis” (Elvis) directed by Baz Luhrmann. He won the Golden Globe for his role as Elvis Presley and was also nominated for an Oscar.

image

In addition to the cast, in fact, this “Dune 2” movie itself has a lot of highlights. The production team is almost the existence of Hollywood’s “top match”, and the details of the movie are also very careful.

image

In order to restore the plot of the novel, linguist David J. Peterson was specially hired to develop a dialect in an all-round way. In order to present the famous scene of “riding a sandworm”, it cost a lot.

“Dune 2” will be released in China on March 8. It is worth seeing both in terms of visual effects and storyline. Those who are interested may wish to look forward to it.
