Decoding Gemma Chan’s dress
Gemma’s dress of choice for the event was a Burberry Fall 2026 evening dress designed by Daniel Lee. It is part of a ready-to-wear collection that celebrated nocturnal London glamour.
The sleeveless dress pairs a deep, roasted-coffee brown base with shimmering black and metallic sequined embellishments. It has a high crewneck cut with a high side slit and a swishy, fringed hemline that makes it more chic.
The actor paired the dress with classic black pointed-toe stiletto pumps and minimal jewellery. She wore soft makeup and let her hair down for the evening.
Celebrity stylist Rebecca Corbin-Murray put the look together and also shared pictures of the star on Instagram on November 15. She shared that the jewellery was from Cartier, and the credit for hair and makeup went to Neil Moodie and Francesca Brazzo, respectively.
