An otherwise glamorous front row at a recent Paris Fashion Week presentation became the scene of an apparent social snub, captured on camera and dissected by observers.
During the Jacquemus show, actors Matthew McConaughey and Emma Roberts were seen engaged in an intense, animated conversation. Seated directly between them was fellow actress Gillian Anderson, who appeared to be entirely excluded from the exchange. Video from the event shows McConaughey leaning across Anderson to speak with Roberts, while Anderson maintained a fixed, tight-lipped smile directed toward the runway and cameras.
The footage, which quickly circulated online, sparked commentary from viewers who noted the awkward dynamic. Many pointed out Anderson’s seemingly isolated position as her seatmates conversed around her.
The high-profile front row also included other celebrities such as rapper Stormzy, actress Laura Harrier, and soccer star Jules Koundé. McConaughey was accompanied to the event by his wife, Camila Alves.
Arriving at the show, Anderson had been photographed looking confident and stylish in a sleek black dress. Roberts attended in a ballet-inspired white tulle skirt and black top. The fashion week outing was part of a Paris trip for McConaughey’s family, following his son’s red carpet debut at another designer’s presentation earlier in the week.
