What occurs when cartooncore meets the Motomami aesthetic? Anya Taylor-Joy enters the red carpet wearing a pink leather cloud as Botticelli’s Venus emerges from her carapace. The starlet danced down the red carpet at the Super Mario Bros. premiere while donning a biker suit by Dior. In the movie that some reviewers have referred to as a true love letter to the Nintendo video game, a modern-day Princess Peach invites a new generation to explore the world of Super Mario. The story revolves around Chris Pratt’s Mario, Anya Taylor-Joy’s Princess Peach, Jack Black’s Bowser, and Seth Rogen’s Donkey Kong.
When Anya Taylor-Joy walks the red carpet, she always does so with a statement of purpose, a specific inspiration, a story behind each look. And so, in Los Angeles, the actress embodied the iconic Super Mario Bros. character in a head-to-toe pink ensemble. If you have ever happened to play Super Mario, you know that Peach has always embodied the stereotype of the princess to be rescued, looking harmless, graceful and, most importantly, moving slowly in her classic pink tulle dress. But the story is changing and Anya is proof of that. The actress opted for pink in its boldest version, with a biker-style leather jumpsuit by Dior, a fashion house for which she is a testimonial.
Anya Taylor-Joy completed her ensemble with similar boots and biker gloves, a flawless fusion of motomami and cartooncore, Mario Kart, and Mario Bros. True to Anya’s manner, the long hair was left loose in gentle waves and parted in the exact center. This time, Princess Peach came to our rescue and particularly rescued the fashion.
