Double Emmy nominee Fiona Shaw is wearing London-based Emilia Wickstead to the 71st Primetime Emmy Awards, she shared at BAFTA’s annual tea party, held poolside at The Beverly Hilton on Saturday.
“She is a superb designer,” said the Irish actress. “She has very kindly offered to make my dress for tomorrow…It’s green, an extraordinary green. It’s sort of forest green. And it has a strange resonance of memory and history. She’s constructed the arms in a way that folds the material in, so it’s got a hint of a puff sleeve, but, in fact, it’s an inverted puff. It’s so complicated but very comfortable to wear.”
Shaw is up for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series for her work on “Killing Eve” and Outstanding Guest Actress in a Comedy Series for “Fleabag,” the two BBC hits created by writer, actress, producer and rising star Phoebe Waller-Bridge.
“She was writing it while we were filming it,” shared Shaw of shooting “Fleabag,” streaming on Amazon Prime.“ She was writing the scene while she was in it, while we were acting it. I mean, she is a phenomenon.”
