Saoirse Ronan Has a Long History Of Big Risks On The Red Carpet
Irish actress Saoirse Ronan came to fame after a scene-stealing role in 2007’s Atonement alongside Keira Knightley. Then only 13, that portrayal brought filmmakers clambering to her door and her very first Oscar nomination. Roles in Hanna and The Lovely Bones quickly followed, as did parts in Wes Anderson’s The Grand Budapest Hotel, 2015’s Brooklyn (which also earned her a Best Actress nomination), and Greta Gerwig’s Oscar-winning Little Women.
And with these roles came a myriad of red carpet opportunities. From the start, Ronan has had a penchant for big names and bold shoes, favoring Valentino, Lanvin, and Proenza Schouler, all anchored by sky-high Louboutins. Though, as she rose to new heights with films like Lady Bird, she didn’t dare tame her adventurous streak on the red carpet. In fact, in recent years, she’s gravitated towards former Gucci designer Alessandro Michele’s outré concoctions as well as Nicolas Ghesquière’s futuristic Louis Vuitton. Here, look back at Saoirse Ronan’s biggest red carpet hits.
