Gadot chose a bright blue David Koma gown with eyelet detailing, a thigh-high slit, and a skintight silhouette—a bold choice, considering she’d only given birth to daughter Maya eight weeks earlier.With Wonder Woman’s new blockbuster adaptation heading to the big screen this weekend, all eyes are on its star, Gal Gadot. The Israeli actress and mother of two already embodies the poise and strength of Diana of Themyscira in her daily life, but she has caused a sensation during the film’s recent press tour by incorporating a bit of the character’s essence into her wardrobe. Working with her stylist, Elizabeth Stewart, Gadot has turned heads in clothes that call to mind the character’s signature fearlessness. Take the look she wore to kick off the press tour at the film’s Shanghai premiere in April: Gadot chose a bright blue David Koma gown with eyelet detailing, a thigh-high slit, and a skintight silhouette—a bold choice, considering she’d only given birth to daughter Maya eight weeks earlier. Equally daring was the red sequined cutout Givenchy from Riccardo Tisci’s retrospective collection she wore to the Los Angeles screening. Between the Grecian-inspired silhouette and Gadot's flat gladiator sandals, the look paid fitting homage to Diana’s origins. Diana’s divine heritage–Zeus is her father–is only part of her story; her skill as a warrior is equally important to the narrative. And with a custom Prada look at the Mexico City premiere, Gadot channeled the ferocity of her battle-tested heroine. Embellished with silver patches, studs, and spikes, Gadot’s black satin dress projected strength—all the more so given that it was designed by one of fashion’s most influential women.
