Emma Stone Uses Her Custom Louis Vuitton Gown as a Literal Popcorn Bucket at 'SNL50'
Popcorn was scattered across the red carpet—just like in a movie theater.


Emma Stone took method dressing to the next level at SNL50: The Anniversary Special on Sunday, Feb. 16. In honor of an episode filled with classic comedy characters and surprising guest stars, Stone brought the popcorn, quite literally.
Stone—who is styled by Petra Flannery—wore a red custom Louis Vuitton gown with a strappy halter neckline, a wrap skirt, which created a front leg slit, and oversize pockets. The La La Land star also wore Louis Vuitton Fine Jewelry, including Ombre Blossom hoop earrings and Le Damier de Louis Vuitton rings.
She completed the outfit with red peep-toe sandals, while carrying a classic red and white striped popcorn bucket. She also stuffed the pockets of her Louis Vuitton gown with an abundance of popcorn—so much so, in fact, that the floor around her feet was littered with the snack, much like a movie theater.

As well as posing with husband Dave McCary—a former SNL writer—Stone was seen mingling with a plethora of celebrities inside the event. One particularly funny photo showed the Easy A actress reunite with Superbad screenwriter Seth Rogen. Unsurprisingly, he found it impossible to resist Stone's popcorn offering.

Alongside Stone, SNL's 50th anniversary episode was attended by a multitude of celebrities. While none of them could boast having a Louis Vuitton popcorn dress, attendees pulled a variety of vintage and previously unseen outfits for the occasion.
Anya Taylor-Joy was photographed wearing a sculptural Mugler jacket, taken from the designer's Fall/Winter '95 RTW collection. The same jacket was previously seen on Kate Moss on the Mugler runway in Paris in 1995 (via CheckTheTag).
