Emma Corrin shows off her edgy style credentials in a mini dress resembling a bagged GOLDFISH at the London Film Festival’s My Policeman premiere… while star Harry Styles is absent due to his tour

Emma Corrin showcased her edgy sense of style as she attended the My Policeman premiere during the 66th BFI London Film Festival at the Royal Festival Hall on Saturday.

Known for her eye-catching outfits, the actress, 26, wore a multicoloured one-shoulder mini dress by JW Anderson that boasted an unusual design, formed to mimic a goldfish trapped in a plastic bag.

Screen star Emma’s ensemble finished high above her knee, with the garment tied on her shoulder with a crimped length of material fanning out to the side to mimic the bag’s knotted seal.

My Policeman, based on the novel by Bethan Roberts, premiered at Toronto International Film Festival last month and Harry attended the red-carpet and screening, but had to rush off mid-standing ovation to catch a flight to fulfil another music show.

Fans attending the Special Presentation of My Policeman at the London Film Festival on Saturday paid £16 a ticket – and while many may have expected Harry to be there, he was never confirmed to attend.

The former One Direction star has been branded ‘awkward’ in the role by critics, who say his portrayal as policeman Tom is ‘tepid’ and a ‘blank lead performance.’  

Harry was recently criticised for comments he made about the film in an interview with Rolling Stone, where he said: ‘It’s not like this is a gay story about these guys being gay. It’s about love and about wasted time to me.’

The LGBTQ+ community felt the singer’s remarks attempted to play down the film’s queerness and was a statement reminiscent of the very era the movie was set.

My Policeman is Harry’s second Hollywood film in a lead role after he starred alongside Florence Pugh and director girlfriend Olivia Wilde in Don’t Worry Darling.

The film is set for release in the UK on Friday 21 October 2022.
