The much-anticipated TIFF premiere of Anna Karenina took place on Friday night and Keira Knightley and Jude Law walked the red carpet in outfits that were almost as opulent as the costumes from the film itself. For Keira Knightley, this meant an impeccable haute couture Elie Saab dress from the designer’s Fall 2012 collection—certainly one of the top fashion moments from TIFF so far. The black sheer lace gown (perhaps a nod to the veils she wears as Anna Karenina?) was almost dripping with embellished crystal detail and was finished with a trim, skinny belt. Jude Law’s double-breasted suit didn’t look especially like something Alexei Karenin would wear, but when he opened the jacket to reveal a pinstripe vest with white piping it almost seemed like his outfit was missing a pocket watch or monocle. Also in a three-piece suite on the TIFF red carpet was Aaron Taylor-Johnson (accompanied by his wife, director Sam Taylor-Wood) and while we’re tempted to call the colour of his suit “denim” we’ll settle on “dusty blue.” Aaron Taylor-Johnson kept the Anna Karenina opulence going with the addition of a sparkling beetle-shaped brooch on his lapel. Director Joe Wright did not partake in the three-piece suit trend, but his wife Anoushka Shankar (who, like her dad Ravi Shankar, is also an accomplished sitar player) looked stunning on the TIFF red carpet in a textured black skirt and detailed blouse.
