Emma D’Arcy channeled their inner dragon while at the UK premiere of “House of the Dragon” season 2 held on Monday in London. Beyond D’Arcy, other “House of the Dragon” alumni in attendance included Matt Smith, Ewan Mitchell, Harry Collett and Fabien Frankel, among others.

Making a striking style statement, D’Arcy sported two-toned dress shoes in black and red. The style was high-shine and featured textured reptilian uppers accompanied by equally textural bright red contrasting suede capped toes. The dressy footwear style also featured lace-up closures and short block heels that offered D’Arcy a subtle boost. The style is preppy and sleek, mirroring the look of the “Truth Seekers” star’s suiting moment. The shoe choice also mirrors the dragon-esque theme of the show, making for smart styling.

Accompanying their footwear, D’Arcy was styled in a half-black half-white suiting moment. The stylistic suit included and oversized blazer and flaired 70s-esque trousers. Beneath the thespian’s blazer, they layered on a black polka-dotted collared button-down tucked into their trousers for a sophisticated look.
