The floral embroidery in pale green and blue suited Elle’s porcelain skin while the flared skirt lent a playfulness that was perfect for a very young actress. Another youthful touch were her metallic mary jane pumps, also by Marc Jacobs.
“Meek’s Cutoff†is also up for the festival’s Golden Lion prize.
