Poppy Delevingne Captivates Venice in Philosophy di Lorenzo Serafini

As the81st Venice International Film Festivalonce again captivated with its cinematic magic, British socialite and actressPoppy Delevingnegraced Venice with her sensational sense of style.

The Prelude

The festival's prelude saw Delevingne make a fashionable entrance as she glided toward the historic Hotel Excelsior. A mid-day muse of daytime elegance, she donned a diaphanous white lace top with floral embroidery. The pleated layers cascaded ethereally, reminiscent of Venice’s winged lion taking flight.

Paired with relaxed cream trousers, Delevingne's ensemble was cinched at the waist with a light brown belt—a nod to the earthy tones of Venice's terracotta rooftops. To complement her golden locks, she donned a pair of oversized sunglasses, adding an air of intrigue worthy of Venice's reputation for suspenseful narratives.

The Main Event

As twilight descended upon the floating city, Delevingne underwent a transformation for the “Beetlejuice 2” premiere. Stepping onto the red carpet on opening night, she wore a sensual black duchesse suit fromPhilosophy di Lorenzo Serafini's Resort 2025 collectionthat was sublime.

The suit, a bold departure from her earlier summery whites, spoke to Serafini's thoughtful vision for the modern woman. With its structured silhouette, the ensemble paid homage to classic Italian tailoring.

The choice of fabric—duchesse satin—shimmered under the lights, transporting viewers to a glamorous Hollywood moment. Its lustrous sheen captured the play of light on the canal waters as easily as the camera flashes, while its substantial weight allowed for outstanding precision in the suit's cut.
