Jodie Turner-Smith is always one to embrace dramatic glamour — which she proved yet again at the 2023 Independent Spirit Awards.
Turner-Smith hit the red carpet at the Santa Monica Pier in Santa Monica, Calif. for the occasion on Saturday night, wearing a pale rose-pink Elie Saab couture dress. The “White Noise” star’s long-sleeved piece featured a sheer base with a plunging choker-topped neckline, accented with embroidered crystals, lattice beading and diamond-patterned cutout sleeves. A flared tufted skirt, trimmed in light mauve, pink and blue feathers that matched its bodice and cuffs, smoothly completed Turner-Smith’s ballerina-worthy ensemble.

Stylists Wayman and Micah amplified the actress’ glamour for the occasion with layered rings and small stud and front-back earrings from Anita Ko.

When it came to shoes, Turner-Smith strapped into a pair of pale pink sandals from Flor de Maria to complete her outfit with a fairytale finish. The “After Yang” actress’ $395 Alexandria style included smooth leather uppers with pointed soles, as well as sleek 4-inch stiletto heels. The set’s true glamour, however, came from its thin clear PVC toe, slingback and ankle straps, which were all frosted with small pink crystals. The style added an enchanting base to Turner-Smith’s ensemble, while still being able to make a statement on their own.


The Independent Spirit Awards celebrate the achievements of independent filmmakers. This year’s ceremony was held at the Santa Monica Pier in Santa Monica, Calif., hosted by Hasan Minhaj.
