Margot Robbie turned heads on Wednesday at a Los Angeles photocall for the upcoming adaptation of Emily Brontë’s Wuthering Heights, wearing a striking outfit highlighted by a Margot Robbie medieval corset. The 35-year-old actress paired a beaded, structured bra with a snakeskin-print leather corset and a very short miniskirt, creating a daring look that many described as provocative and lingerie-inspired.
Robbie complemented this ensemble with matching red pumps, a choker, and a signet ring that she reportedly shares with her co-star Jacob Elordi. She also flaunted a large ruby gemstone on her wedding finger, adding to the outfit’s eye-catching details.
Details of the Look and Styling Choices
Robbie’s hair was styled in a loose, romantic updo with soft curls framing her face, perfectly complementing the bold nature of her clothing. Her makeup echoed the outfit’s color scheme, featuring glowing blush and a glossy lip, maintaining a cohesive red monochromatic theme throughout her appearance.
Her co-star Jacob Elordi, who plays Heathcliff in the film, chose a more classic look with a tailored beige jacket, black top, white slacks, leather loafers, and a stylish watch. Although Elordi had his hands in his pockets during photos, it was unclear if he was wearing the matching signet ring reportedly gifted by Robbie.
Supporting Cast and Musical Collaboration at the Event
The cast and crew gathered for the promotional event, including fellow actors Hong Chau and Alison Oliver. Charli XCX, who is set to release a soundtrack album of original songs coinciding with the film’s debut, also attended. The Grammy-winning artist wore a semi-sheer ensemble featuring a button-down blouse with sheer, lace bell sleeves and intricate floral embroidery, paired with a see-through crochet midi skirt and red-bottom stilettos.
The group posed for several photos together, emphasizing the collaborative spirit behind the film’s promotional campaign.
Insights from Jimmy Kimmel Live Appearance
Just days before the photocall, Margot Robbie appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live to discuss filming Wuthering Heights alongside Elordi. When Kimmel remarked on the prevalence of intimate scenes in the movie, Robbie confirmed that the film contains significantly more passionate moments than the original novel, noting that her character Catherine Earnshaw and Elordi’s Heathcliff “never even really kissed” in the book.
Robbie smiled and acknowledged, “Yeah, we kiss a lot,” with Kimmel quipping, “All over the property.” She responded,
“We kiss everywhere, yeah, a lot of kissing.”
This candid revelation emphasized the director Emerald Fennell’s modern and intense approach to the story.
Movie Release Plans and Audience Appeal
Robbie, who is married to film producer Tom Ackerley and recently became a mother to a baby boy, revealed that releasing Wuthering Heights on Valentine’s Day was an intentional decision. She shared that she recently watched the film with close female friends and anticipated it would make for “a fun night out” when paired with drinks and a group outing.
Wuthering Heights is scheduled to premiere in theaters on February 13, promising an edgy and contemporary adaptation of Brontë’s classic novel.
