Demi Moore made a striking entrance on the red carpet in a gorgeous gown crafted entirely from wallpaper by designer Harris Reed. The gown featured romantic pink and white floral motifs and a heart-shaped sculptural element. To add to the glamour, Moore donned a spectacular emerald Cartier necklace, accompanied by matching earrings. According to Reed, the necklace served as the muse behind the floral gown.
According to Reed, the gown is “11,000 hours of silk embroidery that we’ve repurposed into this idea of her blooming on the carpet.”
