No one reads io9 or Gizmodo for any type of educated insight into the world of high fashion. We’re nerds, which is why you come here to learn about the latest and greatest in the world of science fiction. But once in a while, those worlds collide in such a fun way that we just have to expand our boundaries and go full Vogue.
The cast of Dune: Part Two was in London Thursday for the film’s premiere and the outfits were sci-fi-fire. “Sci-fire,” even. They were more than just serving looks—they were Bene Gesserving looks, as our headline says. A level reserved for only the most elite, skilled fashionistas, much like their namesakes.
In this slideshow, you’ll see the sci-fi-inspired looks of several members of the cast including, but not limited to, Timothée Chalamet, Rebecca Ferguson, Zendaya, Léa Seydoux, Austin Butler, and Florence Pugh. There was even a secret member of the cast on hand whose inclusion is kind of a spoiler, so we’ll save that highlight for the end.
