OK so the fashion moment we were waiting for…

Emma Stone at the Palais tonight in Cannes...

And…

Le sigh.

Of course. She’s gorgeous. She’s wearing the hell out of it. She’s just so lovely. And I love how playful and fun she was, hamming it up for photographers. But. It’s a wedding dress, isn’t it? It’s like what Renee Zellweger would wear to her own wedding? Isn’t this such a Renee Zellweger dress? I just didn’t want to see Emma Stone wearing a Renee Zellweger dress, you know?

That said, it’s maybe the most “grownup” dress we’ve ever seen on Emma. And she’s holding it with a lot of poise. So I wonder if this was strategic. Like if this was a deliberate declaration, her transition from “young actress” to ACTOR. Clothes can be a big part of that kind of plan.
