Joey King Steps Into a Bold New Style Era

The American actress plays The Prince, a British assassin, who poses as a schoolgirl. In the film, Joey looks prim and proper in her all-pink ensemble.

But in real life, she joins a slew of A-list stars currently undergoing an experimental fashion phase. It has resulted in a series of bold sartorial choices for her Bullet Train press tour.

In an interview with THR, Joey shared that she’s “been having so much fun with my looks, and I’ve been choosing them all for me, and they’re making me happy.”

Joey said she’s “enjoying every moment of playing around with my style.”

“I feel like I’m entering a new form of myself, where I am not afraid anymore to kind of just do what I want on the carpet,” Joey added about her newfound sense of style. “And I’m feeling good.”

The European promo tour featured an array of eclectic looks from the cast, but Joey caught our attention. She donned black leather, peek-a-boo cutouts, a corset, a suit, a lot of cleavage, and even opera gloves in the summer heat.

Meanwhile, her Azalea Wang platform heels featured an open-toed design and a strappy silhouette. They also had vegan leather uppers, wraparound ankle ties, chunky platform soles, and striking sculpted heels.

The brand’s flair for statement-making footwear didn’t stop there — a few years later, Shania Twain brought rhinestone-studded glamour to the stage at Hard Rock Live, dazzling in a pair of sparkling Azalea Wang cowboy boots that perfectly captured her signature mix of country flair and pop-icon energy.

“I think that I’m really having a lot of fun with my hair,” Joey told The Hollywood Reporter. “My hairdresser, Dimitris Giannetos, is amazing.”

As for her gorgeous face, makeup artist Allan Avendaño gave her a rosy glow with a graphic white eyeliner for a bit of drama.

She finished off her look with a stunning Shaun Leane drop necklace, Mara Paris silver rings, and a Hirotaka diamond ear cuff.
