Demi Moore and Elle Fanning Illuminate Dior’s Romantic Spirit at The 2024 Gothams

At the 2024 Gotham Awards, Demi Moore and Elle Fanning embodied Dior’s romantic sensibilities at New York's Cipriani Wall Street. Dior Artistic Director Maria Grazia Chiuri’s poetic vision of contemporary femininity added a layer of sartorial drama to the cinematic celebration.

Demi Moore, nominated for Outstanding Lead Performance in The Substance, chose a deep aubergine silk gown with precision drapery. Its asymmetrical neckline and pleating lent the silhouette its classical appeal. Completing the ensemble, a statement BVLGARI necklace with brilliant diamonds punctuated the gown's graceful movement as the fluid skirt captured light with each step.

Fanning appeared in a sage green silk gown with exquisite pleating that lent the silhouette its ethereality. The gown's considered construction with its structured bodice and geometric quilting dissolved into diaphanous pleated silk, exemplifying Dior's enduring poetic sensibilities. Diamond bracelets and a delicate choker added crystalline accents to the understated look, while sleek, center-parted blonde hair maintained the gown's pure lines.

The ceremony, celebrating independent cinema's finest achievements with Sean Baker's Anora leading four nominations, became a testament to both artistic innovation and timeless style. As the evening honored luminaries including Angelina Jolie for Maria and Timothée Chalamet and James Mangold for A Complete Unknown, Dior's presence through Fanning and Moore's considered choices reinforced the maison's enduring dialogue with cinema. Their looks, each expressing Chiuri's masterful balance of heritage and modernity, transformed the red carpet into a reflection of Dior's continuing romance with film's most meaningful moments.
