Maisie Williams was inspired by her two mothers Practical Magic when choosing her look for the film’s world premiere on Wednesday.
The Game of Thrones star joined Sandra Bullock, 62, Nicole Kidman, 59, and Joey King on the red carpet at Leicester Square in London.
Maisie, 29, and Joey, 27, play Sandra’s daughters in Practical Magic 2, and Maisie honored the Hollywood star with her red corset-style dress.
The actress’ custom Ellie Misner dress referenced Sandra’s red carpet look from the Los Angeles premiere of her 1999 film Forces of Nature.
Sandra, who has reflected that she was going through a ‘goth period’ at the time, wore a boat-neck top and silky skirt in the same red shade and cut as Maisie’s satin dress.
Maisie teamed her take on the look with a Roger Vivier satin clutch and a dazzling ruby and diamond choker.
