PHOTO DIARY: Emily Carey & Maisy De Freitas
Dressing the young actresses for the Tomb Raider movie premiere
There's only one thing more fun than dressing a little starlet for her red carpet debut and that's dressing two! Both playing the role of young Lara Croft in the remake of the Tomb Raider movie, Emily and Maisy popped into Childrensalon HQ the day before the European premiere on 6th March 2018, where we helped them each to pick an outfit fit for a superstar. The next day we were invited to accompany them to London where we documented their journey to the red carpet.
Arriving at Childrensalon, it was the first time the girls met and from their chemistry, it was clear from the outset they were kindred spirits. Keen to take on the role of mentor, Emily, 14 was quick to take Maisy, 8 under her wing.
Emily: "You'll be so nervous at first but once people start to take your photo you're going to love it!"
Spoilt for choice and overwhelmed by the 'sparkles' it didn't take long for them to decide on their perfect pick. Emily chose a stunning knee length dress by Le Mu, in black and gold lace with Maisy opting for a cute, beaded peter pan collared dress by Romano Princess, choosing to twin with their matching black leather jackets by designer Elsy.
Maisy: "I love sparkles!"
Their dressing room was a suite at the Hampshire Hotel, right in the heart of Leicester square, with a view of the red carpet from their window. Both girls were beyond excited as they ran to and from each other's rooms screaming with glee.
Emily: "What I love about my outfit is that even though it's fabulous, I still look like a fourteen year old girl"
Leciester Square was full of the buzz of the Warner Bros. premiere and unphased by the chanting of their names, the young actresses took it all in their stride (see the above image of the girls featured with the movie's director, Roar Uthaug). You can see from the way they strike the famous Lara Croft pose that they were both born to play the part.
