Monica Barbaro stuns at 'A Complete Unknown' UK premiere in Schiaparelli

Monica Barbaro has once again proven she’s a master of red carpet glamour with another stunning, perfectly fitting gown. The 34-year-old actress, who plays Joan Baez in the Bob Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown, made the UK premiere her runway, wearing a beautiful Schiaparelli Spring 2024 Haute Couture gown.

Barbaro, who is a quarter Mexican, revived the hooded dress trend, showcasing her signature elegance. The jaw-dropping black gown fit her perfectly, with a plunging neckline and silk satin that hugged her curves.

She effortlessly posed in the dress, which featured a black jersey hood adorned with rhinestone-jeweled buckles and the brand's famous Keyhole motif.

Barbaro, who shared the weirdest advice she ever received, completed her look with light but glamorous makeup with bronze tones and natural nails. She let the dress do all the talking, wearing only diamond studs that matched the dress' bedazzled brooch.

Meanwhile, her co-star Timothée Chalamet, who stars as Bob Dylan, also made an impression, rocking the London-based designer Martine Rose's suit and shirt. His girlfriend, Kylie Jenner, seemed to stay at home for the premiere.

Their castmate Elle Fanning was noticeably missing from the premiere as they posed together on the red carpet.

A Complete Unknown is doing amazing in the awards circuit. The film received three nominations at the 82nd Golden Globe Awards, three at the Critics Choice Awards, and four at the 31st Screen Actors Guild Awards. It is also expected to have nominations at the Academy Awards.

While Barbaro put on her best face at the premiere, she shared her heartbreak over the fires that are taking place in Los Angeles. 

"In London feeling like I’ve left my heart in Los Angeles with everyone continuing to fight the fires and everyone working tirelessly to support their efforts. It’s the people who make LA home. The friends, the community. Those of us who live (or have lived) in LA are gutted right now," she wrote.

"My heart is breaking for all those who have lost homes, loved ones, and any sense of stability. Angelenos are still inhaling smoke and toxic fumes as the fires continue. Most people will be okay, we hope, but it’s collective grief nonetheless," the actress continued. "All my love to LA and to all of the first responders, essential workers, volunteers, and everyone who has called Los Angeles ‘home.’”
