  • Celebrities often use red carpets to nod to the films they star in.

  • Insider rounded up times stars have dressed like the Disney characters they've played.

  • Recently, Halle Bailey wore a dress with a seashell neckline in honor of "The Little Mermaid."

For the after-party of the premiere of "Alice in Wonderland" in February 2010, Helena Bonham Carter wore an ensemble inspired by her character, the Red Queen.

Carter's cream dress had a strapless neckline and an asymmetrical, tulle skirt.

The skirt was adorned with a red, sparkly heart, and the actor carried a purse with two illustrations of the Red Queen on it. Heart-shaped, dangling earrings completed the look.

Lily James' blue dress for the March 2015 premiere of "Cinderella" was a modern play on the titular character's signature dress.

Cinderella's blue ball gown is iconic, so it made sense for James to honor it with her Elie Saab gown for the film's premiere.

The gown had an illusion neckline and sleeves that were adorned with blue beads. A fitted, strapless bodice flowed into a full skirt, and the entire dress was covered in sparkly beading.

She paired the look with sheer Christian Louboutin heels adorned with sparkles, which felt like a modern version of Cinderella's glass slippers.

Emma Watson's ensemble for the March 2017 premiere of "Beauty and the Beast" included a subtle nod to the movie.

Watson arrived at the premiere in a black Oscar de la Renta jumpsuit that had a pointed neckline and slim-fitted pants.

A gold, rose-shaped brooch sat on Watson's hip, evoking the iconic rose that marks the dwindling time of the Beast's curse in the classic movie. The color also matched the gold dress Belle wears in the film, making it even more appropriate for the occasion.

For the December 2018 premiere of "Mary Poppins Returns," Emily Blunt chose a dress that matched the color of Mary Poppins' coat.

Blunt's silky Schiaparelli dress had long sleeves, a high neckline with ruching on the bodice, and a delicate train.

The dress ended up matching the carpet for the premiere, so Blunt blended in with her surroundings.

The dress Naomi Scott wore to the "Aladdin" European Gala looked like it was pulled from Jasmine's closet.

Her Burberry gown was strapless with a corseted, crystal-covered bodice and a floor-length skirt with a trouser-style waistband.

The blue shade and sparkling embellishments matched the outfits Jasmine wears throughout the 2019 live-action remake of "Aladdin."

Elle Fanning made a major nod to Aurora at the 2019 "Maleficent: Mistress of Evil" premiere in Los Angeles, California.

Her custom Gucci gown had pink and gray flowers lining its neckline, a floor-length skirt that was tattered at the bottom, and burgundy ribbons hanging from its off-the-shoulder sleeves.

But its most unique detail was the red spots crafted from sequins to look like drops of blood along Fanning's sheer glove and down her skirt.

At the "Disenchanted" premiere in 2022, Amy Adams paid homage to her character Giselle.

Dolce & Gabbana designed her long-sleeved gown, which had a plunging neckline and a corseted waist.

But it was its deep-purple coloring that matched the famous halter dress Giselle wears to the ball in the first "Enchanted" film.

Yara Shahidi was seemingly inspired by her "Peter Pan & Wendy" character when she attended the movie's premiere in April.

She wore a sparkling gold dress that looked a lot like pixie dust. It was sleeveless with a high neckline and waist cutouts, and its long skirt was decorated with fringe from the knees down.

Alexander McQueen custom-made the gown for Shahidi.
