A lot goes into the researching and portraying of a particular role for a film or series, and actors spend months preparing to immerse themselves in these characters for as long as it takes to get the project done.
After the show wraps up, these stars often choose to honour their roles by incorporating style elements into their red carpet looks at premieres and press tours.
Check out how these actors paid tribute to the characters they played through their ensembles.

All dolled up

Gothic style
