Anne Hathaway Commands Berlin in Sheer Valentino Couture and a Hooded Alaïa Moment

Anne Hathaway has long been one of the red carpet’s most reliably exciting dressers, and her appearance at the 73rd Berlin International Film Festival on February 16, 2023, was a reminder of how effortlessly she blends modern glamour with high-fashion confidence.

Attending the premiere of She Came to Me at the Grand Hyatt Hotel, the actress brought a fresh, couture-forward approach that still feels striking years later.

For the photocall, The Princess Diaries star brought the mysterious hooded style into 2023. She flaunted her perfect fashion sense in a black hooded jumpsuit by designer Pieter Mulier for Alaïa.

The hooded cotton bodysuit with long sleeves ($1,720 at Mytheresa) paired with a draped leather midi skirt ($4,620 at Mytheresa) featuring a ruffled waistline, an ankle-length hem, and a tight leather zip-up belt was from the Alaïa Spring/Summer 2023 Ready-to-Wear collection.

Beauty and Accessories: Hathaway’s Sleek, Modern Finishing Touches

Her outfit is perfectly balanced, classic, and cutting-edge, with the hood adding a mysterious, edgy touch to the overall look.

Hathaway wore her dark hair in sleek waves and maintained a natural look with a dewy face and a bright matte lip. As a Bulgari brand ambassador, the actress accessorized with a stunning stack of the Italian jeweler’s rings.

She Came to Me stars Marisa Tomei from Spider-Man, Peter Dinklage from Game of Thrones, and Anne Hathaway from The Devil Wears Prada.

Dinklage portrays Steven Lauddem, Tomei plays Katrina, and Hathaway plays Patricia Lauddem. The plot centers on a composer who struggles with writer’s block until he finds his passion again after an exciting one-night stand.

It also features two talented teenagers who face challenges to convince their parents that their young love can last a lifetime, and a woman who seems to have it all but finds love in the most unlikely places.
