Few stars balance Hollywood glamour with globe-trotting ease quite like Emma Stone. In December 2016, the Oscar winner touched down in San Francisco for the premiere of La La Land, turning the Bay Area into her runway.
Between celebrating the city’s charm and promoting her career-defining role, Emma delivered a classic red-carpet moment in a fit-and-flare Preen dress and statement Jimmy Choo pumps.
