Kristen Stewart Wore a High-Cut Bodysuit With Sheer Tights to the Love Lies Bleeding Premiere

Kristen Stewart is starring in the new A24 romantic thriller Love Lies Bleeding. On Tuesday, March 5, the movie had its premiere in Los Angeles, and Stewart showed up in a daring pants-free look.

The Twilight actress wore only an ultra-high-cut bodysuit by Bettter over sheer black Wolford tights, stepping into a pair of black stiletto Chanel pumps to add a few inches. She draped a black blazer over her shoulders, rolled at the sleeves, adding just a hint of sparkle with some chunky silver rings. Her hair was tied into an effortless half-up, half-down style.

After the premiere, Stewart headed to an after-party, where she took a more casual approach to her outfit. The star kept the same blazer that she wore on the red carpet, changing into a plain white T-shirt and adding a thin silver chain necklace. She posed for photos with co-star Jena Malone and producer Oliver Kassman.

When speaking with NBC News alongside costar Katy O’Brian and director Rose Glass, Stewart was asked what made her interested in doing a film that feels like “a PSA against love.”

“It just felt like a love story that was showing all the dirty, real, good, fun stuff, which is all the bad stuff, actually,” she answered. “Love can absolutely destroy you and others, and you don’t always make the most selfless decisions in love.”

Stewart continued: “There’s no fixed definition for love. It’s such a means to justify any decision that one might make recklessly.”

She also touched on shooting the film’s lesbian sex scene, and how they managed to make it feel authentic.

“The run of the mill, like, just-go-for-it simulated sex thing is so rote, and it’s like actors do have this default thing where, like, ‘Okay, we’re supposed to make out and have sex now.’ That’s just not how people have sex, and I’m so sick of seeing it,” she explained. “Really nailing the details and talking about the physical experience more so than even seeing it, like verbalizing it, talking to each other, sharing space, like having it not be cut up into a ton of different shots, it felt like…a really beautiful thing to deliver an experience that was, like, literal instead of faux.”

“If anyone takes anything from this movie, it’s to ask your partner what they like. You don’t see that in a movie,” O’Brian chimed in.
