A little dance party was involved.

Adria Arjona is having a year. After starring opposite Glen Powell in Netflix’s Hit Man (I’m still thinking about that cell phone scene, by the way), she’s next set to star in Zoë Kravitz’s directorial debut, Blink Twice. The psychological thriller follows a cocktail waitress (played by Naomi Ackie) who falls for a tech billionaire and gets swept into a luxurious vacation on his private island with his rich friends (including Arjona’s Sarah). But the getaway isn’t as dreamy as it seems.

Arjona, Kravitz, and the cast—like Channing Tatum, Christian Slater, Simon Rex, Haley Joel Osment, Geena Davis, and Alia Shawkat—celebrated the film at Thursday night’s premiere in Los Angeles. Arjona looked radiant in a white column gown by Versace (the color might just be a reference to certain dress in the film) with geometric cutouts and a deep back slit. The crêpe number is from the brand’s spring/summer 2024 collection. She added archival Tiffany & Co. jewelry, her “armor for the night,” to complete the look.

Here, the actress shares a behind-the-scenes glimpse at how she prepped for the premiere, with the help of her hair stylist Irinel De Leon, makeup artist Emily Cheng, stylist Sandra Amador, and her family.

Little dance party with my other half. So lucky to have such a supportive family.

Sandra and I fell in love with this dress, and the second I tried it on, I knew I had to wear it.

We decided to go with a sculpted, ’90s glam look, but to be honest, I have blind faith in Emily’s makeup and let her do whatever she wants with my face.

What would I do without Irinel? Her attention to detail is so beautiful. I love having her around. She’s family.

My mom and my brother just kept me smiling the entire night.
