Honor Swinton Byrne led the glamorous arrivals at Friday night's premiere of The Souvenir: Part II at the BFI London Film Festival. The 24-year-old star dazzled in a floor-length sequined black dress, patent Doc Martens and smoky eye make-up.
The film, written and directed by Joanna Hogg, is the follow-up to 2019's The Souvenir. Honor reprises her role as film student Julie in the aftermath of a tumultuous relationship. She appears alongside her mother, acclaimed actress Tilda Swinton, who was unable to attend the event.
Honor told the PA news agency that she is 'always learning from my mum'. She said: 'I feel like not necessarily within film, but every day I'm always learning how to be as similar to her as I can in many ways.' She added that the relationship between Julie and her mother 'reaches such a beautiful conclusion in the second one'.
The red carpet also featured Joanna Hogg in a sharp navy suit and frilled cream blouse, Harris Dickinson in a vintage-style brown striped suit, and Richard Ayoade with his wife Lydia Fox. Art director Byron Broadbent and actress Gala Botero also attended.
The Souvenir: Part II will be released in UK cinemas on January 21, 2022.
