Emma Watson attended the W Magazine and Dior pre-Oscar dinner on March 12 ahead of Sunday’s Academy Awards ceremony. Watson wore black and white tweed prepared by the fashion house for the occasion. This will be her first event of 2026.
Emma Watson opted for a preppy look for her first event of 2026, wearing a black and white Dior tweed set as she attended the pre-Oscar dinner hosted by the fashion house and W Magazine at Mr. Chow in Beverly Hills.
Watson paired the house’s macrocannage cropped jacket and matching flared miniskirt with a small dark clutch and pointy black heels.
Throughout the evening, Watson was photographed mingling with other guests, including Macaulay Culkin, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, and Tracee Ellis Ross.
Ms Watson’s appearance comes shortly after she made headlines for her relationship with billionaire Gonzalo Hevia Bayere. After a photo of the pair kissing at an airport surfaced, People confirmed the pair were dating, with a source telling the outlet that Watson was “really into Bayerre” and felt like he was “on a cloud.”
The star has largely stayed out of the spotlight in recent years. In a rare interview with Hollywood Authentic in September 2025, Watson reflected on her decision to step back from public life, saying it made her “probably the happiest and healthiest I’ve ever been.”
“I think the interesting thing about being an actor is that you tend to split yourself into multiple personalities,” she said. “I’m not just talking about the roles you play, but having the weight of a public persona that needs to be continually nourished, adorned, and beautified. That’s very energy-consuming. And I think shedding multiple identities has freed up so much space for me to be a better sister, daughter, friend, granddaughter, even an artist, and someone who is trying to be a critical thinker of their own.”
