The live-action Peter Pan & Wendy movie is set to be released on Disney+ at the end of this month, meaning the cast is now out and about on the corresponding press tour. Last night, the gang attended the film's world premiere in London and, for the occasion, Yara Shahidi debuted a high fashion tribute to her on-screen character, Tinker Bell.
First thing's first: Yara's iridescent gold dress is absolutely breathtaking. The sleeveless Alexander McQueen number features a high neck, subtle cut outs at the waist and a long fringed skirt. The fabric itself is so twinkly, it's literally *radiating* light, meaning it's nothing short of hypnotic. And, well, can you find a more perfect look for the actor representing one of the most famous fairies of all time? Answer: nope.

Of course, she also had to recreate the iconic pose of blowing fairy dust - so good - and, when you look a little closer you can see she's even got a matching swipe of gold glitter across her eyelids:
Yara Shahidi also shared the outfit on Instagram with the caption 'MADE OF PIXIE DUST✨ a special @alexandermcqueen sparkle for the @disneypeterpan world premiere 🧚🏽♂️ #tinkerbell'
I love everything about this fashion moment - the nostalgia, the chic, the glitter.
When she's not channelling the beloved fairy in front of the camera or on the red carpet, you can even find Yara's Tinker Bell in stores, with the actor revealing she's also got her own Tinker Bell doll.
'Can you believe it…' wrote Yara on Insta. 'My very own wings, covered in pixie dust🧚🏽♂️I’m excited to share the Tinker Bell doll inspired by my character in #PeterPanAndWendy. She is so very special! 🧚🏽♂️'
We know what we'll be watching next Friday night!
Peter Pan and Wendy will be available on Disney+ from 28th April
