Margot Robbie honours Emily Bronte with mourning bracelet at London premiere

Margot Robbie's London premiere look carried a hidden meaning tied to Wuthering Heights. The detail behind her jewellery has everyone talking.

Margot Robbie turned heads at the London premiere of Wuthering Heights -- not just for her look, but for the history behind it. The actor paid a quiet yet powerful tribute to Emily Bronte by wearing a mourning bracelet inspired by a Victorian original made from the author’s hair.

The premiere, held on February 6, saw Robbie step onto the red carpet wearing a replica of a 19th-century bracelet once owned by Charlotte Bronte and crafted using the hair of her sisters Emily and Anne. The choice immediately stood out, signalling that this wasn’t just another press appearance, but a deeply considered nod to the literary figure behind the film.

The mourning bracelet was a painstaking recreation of a 175-year-old piece, originally designed during the Victorian era when hair jewellery was a common way of honouring loved ones who had died. The replica was created by a studio based in Haworth -- the village closely associated with the Bronte family -- adding another layer of authenticity.

By choosing the bracelet, Robbie directly linked herself to Emily Bronte’s legacy, transforming a red carpet moment into a piece of living literary history.

Robbie’s gown for the evening was custom-made by designer Dilara Findikoglu and echoed the themes of the novel. Featuring a nude corseted silhouette and intricate braided detailing, the dress drew inspiration from Victorian hair-braiding techniques -- a subtle visual rhyme with the mourning bracelet itself.

The braids were hand-dyed to match the tones of the jewellery, reinforcing the sombre, romantic mood associated with Wuthering Heights. The overall look felt dark, emotional and deliberate -- much like the story itself.
