Superman’s Rachel Brosnahan channels Lois Lane’s looks IRL, taking ‘method dressing’ to the next level with Miu Miu, Thom Browne, Lacoste, and a custom Patou dress inspired by her character
The actress says Lois Lane is the closest to herself she’s ever played, and she’s clearly relishing the chance to recreate the comic book journalist’s style on the Superman press tour
When James Gunn’s new Superman hit theatres, all eyes were on supporting character Lois Lane, the investigative reporter played by Rachel Brosnahan.
Brosnahan made waves on the film’s press tour by fully embracing the style of her comic book character, turning heads with a series of looks that combine classic journalistic business wear with fresh, modern twists.
The Emmy Award-winning The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel actress described Lois Lane as “the closest to myself I’ve ever played”. With styling help from Alexandra Mandelkorn, Brosnahan’s wardrobe channels Lois’ signature blend of professionalism and confidence – from tailored suits with corset detailing to preppy minidresses featuring bold colours and playful accents.
Here’s a look at Rachel Brosnahan’s fashion masterclass during the new Superman press run.
When she visited ABC Studios on July 10, Brosnahan appeared in a vintage-inspired Coach suit. She wore a sleeveless caramel-brown plaid waistcoat with wide-legged trousers in the same colour, creating an effortless, uncluttered silhouette.
Completing the outfit, Brosnahan carried a large, structured brown leather Coach Kisslock Frame handbag adorned with plush and carrot-shaped charms. She also wore white pointed-toe shoes that provided a sharp contrast to the earthy tones of her suit.
Her second suit look of the day was a tailored navy-blue Thom Browne jacket with a preppy-style pleated miniskirt, a crisp white shirt and a navy-blue tie. She finished the polished newsroom look with rimless rectangular sunglasses, a Thom Browne Hector dog bag and white, pointy-toe heels.
