Brad Pitt is not the only celebrity sporting a new style amid the Bullet Train press tour. Growing up in front of our eyes, former child star Joey King has been wearing more mature styles throughout the junket. Portraying Prince in the film, King stars as a dangerous British assassin, posing as an innocent schoolgirl.
Clearly paying homage to her character in the forthcoming film, King has spearheaded the trend of uniform dressing and a fashionable badassery, from Paris to Germany, London, and Los Angeles.
Together, with her longtime stylist Jared Eng, King has curated a subversive wardrobe filled with corsets, leather, cutouts, and bodysuits, and more avant-garde ensembles.
The 23-year-old actress posed alongside her fiancé Steven Piet and her Bullet Train castmates Brad Pitt, Aaron Taylor Johnson, Brian Tyree Henry, Zazie Beetz, Logan Lerman, and more. The film follows five different assassins aboard a fast moving “bullet train,” traveling from Toyko to Morioka. The hired guns eventually uncover a strange truth about their missions – while they may not be as interwoven as they originally thought, their assignments have something in common. Directed by David Leitch, Bullet Train hits theaters on August 5.

Monday night, the star attended the film’s L.A. premiere in a white plunging tuxedo top with cutouts along the hip and a fringed floor-length skirt from designer Cong Tri.
