During her February 17, 2020, appearance on Good Morning America, Anya Taylor-Joy delivered not one but two standout looks—first arriving in a bold leopard-print Halpern ensemble before later switching into a vibrant floral Prabal Gurung dress layered under a magenta Sentaler coat.
Her day began with the striking leopard outfit, a high-impact mix of print and volume that instantly became one of the most memorable moments of the early press tour.
A Bold Start: Halpern’s Leopard Jumpsuit Layered with a Balloon-Hem Dress
The dramatic balloon-hem dress layered over a printed jumpsuit divided opinions at the time. Still, it perfectly showcased the actress’s willingness to take risks with fashion long before she became a modern red-carpet style icon.

Directed by Autumn de Wilde and written by Eleanor Catton, Emma is a 2020 adaptation of Jane Austen’s 1815 novel.
De Wilde has noted in interviews that both Anya Taylor-Joy and Mia Goth were central to her vision for the film from the start, praising their ability to bring a mix of awkwardness, charm, and on-screen charisma to their roles.
