Emma Watson attends GQ Men of the Year party in vintage Valentino
Emma Watson appeared at the GQ Men of the Year party in Los Angeles on November 12 wearing a vintage Valentino outfit.
Watson arrives at Chateau Marmont
The actress stepped out on Thursday night at the event held at the Chateau Marmont. She joined guests including Ayo Edebiri, Monica Barbaro, and Tinashe for the occasion. Watson avoided the red carpet entries yet appeared in photos beyond the venue. Her outfit featured a vintage patterned piece from Valentino's 2016 resort collection collaboration with artist Christi Belcourt.
Style choices and footwear details
For a lesson in pattern mixing, she matched the colorful design with black-and-white striped Jacquemus stilettos. The Harry Potter alum makes another rare appearance, having mostly retired from acting since 2019. She wore a sculpted ruby gown to the LACMA Art+Film Gala earlier this month. Watson discussed her choice to step away from the business during an interview with Hollywood Authentic in 2025.
Comments on film promotion work
Watson explained that while she misses the creative process, she does not miss the demands of promoting films. She described selling things as quite soul-destroying before adding that she misses using her skill set and the art. Since then, Watson has ventured into various creative endeavors such as directing and developing the spirits brand Renais, a company she established alongside her brother Alex. While she has not announced a return to the screen, she remains open to the right project.
