Renée Zellweger wears couture gown older than the first ‘Bridget Jones’ to new movie premiere – Page Six
Renée Zellweger is timeless.For the London premiere of “Bridget Jones: Mad About The Boy,” the actress dipped in the Balmain archives for her vibrant look — which is older than the series’ first movie, released in 2001.Zellweger and her stylist, Petra Flannery, chose a fuchsia satin strapless gown with a long train from the brand’s fall 2000 Haute Couture collection, which was designed by Oscar de la Renta.Skipping jewelry entirely, she accessorized the 25-year-old gown with dark red metallic heels.Zellweger’s traded her new Bowie-inspired haircut, which she debuted on the cover of British Vogue’s Feb. issue a few weeks ago, for extensions styled in a half-up, half-down look, with one side falling over her shoulder. Her red carpet number last night was a stark departure from the all-back look Zellweger, 55, wore to the film’s photocall earlier in the day.Zellweger posed for photos in a long black blazer layered over a coordinating turtleneck and leather capris. She accessorized the look with cat-eye sunglasses and pointy pumps.
