Activist-actress Sabrina Elba walked the famous Cannes steps for the premiere of “Three Thousand Years of Longing” in white wisp of a Tony Ward gown.
The two don’t actually work together on the film. “I don’t have any scenes with Idris, funnily enough, which was actually probably for the better,” she said. She appears on screen with Tilda Swinton. “I get to come face to face with Tilda and I mean, she is just a monolith in the industry, so that was really intimidating. But she was such a guide, such a friend and so helpful and like, ‘You got this.
Styling duo Zadrian Smith and Sarah Edmiston worked with Tony Ward to create a custom gown to calm those jitters and help her feel confident on the red carpet. They took a reference photo of Gina Lollobrigida in the 1959 epic “Solomon and Sheba” to Ward, only to discover he was using the exact same photo as inspiration for his 2022 capsule collection.“Not only isone of our first major moments with Sabrina as a client, it also felt so important because it’s her acting debut.
“I think it’s something every girl deals with since there’s so much pressure to look a certain way. I’ve always been naturally curvy and I’m very proud of that. But sometimes it can be a bit intimidating to try on a sample size, when you know it’s only gonna go up to your knees because you can’t get it past your African thighs,” she joked. “And so I love challenging designers to say, ‘look, if you want to dress me, pull something out that is my size, because I’m not sample size.
While the pair are still doing their podcast, “Coupledom,” and Elba has additional acting projects in the works, her philanthropy and activism will always be her priority, she said.
