Andrew Garfield’s new look at the 82nd Venice Film Festival
Andrew Garfield unveiled a noticeably different look at the 82nd Venice Film Festival, stepping onto the red carpet with longer, tousled hair and a clean-shaven face that marked a striking departure from his usual style. At 42, the actor managed to appear both relaxed and meticulous, a balance underscored by his choice of accessories.
The statement BVLGARI watch
Andrew wore a blue Dior suit over a striped button-down shirt, a palette that leaned casual, but his finishing touches came courtesy of BVLGARI. On his wrist sat the Octo Finissimo Automatic, a watch widely regarded as a milestone in contemporary fine watchmaking. Crafted in satin-polished stainless steel with an extra-thin 40 mm case, the timepiece houses a BVL 138 calibre movement only 2.23 mm thick, yet it still delivers a 60-hour power reserve.
Its sun-brushed metallic salmon dial, accented with rhodium appliqués, added warmth and intrigue against the steel’s cool precision. The transparent caseback and integrated bracelet underscored the watch’s fusion of Italian design and Swiss engineering, a pairing that has made the Octo Finissimo an icon among modern collectors.
Jewelry that redefined the look
Complementing the watch was BVLGARI’s B.zero1 jewelry, a line defined by its break with convention. Andrew chose the white-gold pendant and matching band ring, both drawing inspiration from the Colosseum’s bold curves. The design, known for its fluid and architectural form, gave his look a sculptural edge without overwhelming the suit’s simplicity.
He was joined by After the Hunt castmates Julia Roberts, Ayo Edebiri, Michael Stuhlbarg, and Chloë Sevigny. The film, a psychological drama set for release in October, casts Andrew as a professor accused of misconduct by a student (Ayo), while Julia plays a colleague grappling with her own hidden past.

But before audiences encounter Andrew on-screen, his Venice appearance already told its own story. It was less about reinvention for the sake of change than about precision: hair grown out, beard gone, a suit softened, and accessories that spoke as much about engineering and design as they did about style.
