Thomasin McKenzie put on a quirky display as she attended the screening of her new film Eileen in London on Monday. 

The actress, 23, who plays the titular character in the psychological thriller, wore a dogtooth dress with panel detailing.  

She teamed the stylish number with a pair of knee-high leather boots and accessorised with a Louis Vuitton box handbag. 

Thomasin opted for a subtle makeup look with shimmery eyeshadow and a nude lipstick to complete her look.  

She stars alongside Anne Hathaway, Shea Whigham, Marin Ireland and Owen Teague in the highly-anticipated film that is set for release December 1.

Thomasin was joined at the screening by film director William Oldroyd, who looked smart in a navy blue blazer.  

The trailer for Eileen was released last month and begins with Eileen, played by actress McKenzie, patting down her prison’s staff members and gazing at an attractive prisoner.

The character then tells her father that she had experienced ‘one of those days you never forget’ before she first sees Rebecca, played by Hathaway.

Eileen and Rebecca establish an instant connection after the psychologist is introduced to the prison’s workers, and after introducing McKenzie’s character to cigarettes, the latter ominously states: ‘I live a little differently than most people.’

After Hathaway’s character establishes a close relationship with the secretary, she places her hand on the latter’s thigh before they dance with one another during a trip to a bar.

Eileen later tries to leave Rebecca’s house before the latter slams the front door shut and ominously states: ‘You can never tell anyone, do you understand? Promise me.’

The secretary’s father, played by Wigham, then states that he could imagine his daughter with a gun, she points one at Rebecca, who calmly remarks: ‘That’s very good, Eileen.’

Wigham then tells his daughter that she is ‘different these days. Almost interesting.’

A rapid-fire montage then ensues, which concludes with Rebecca locking lips with Eileen, after which she remarks: ‘The only way out’s for someone to die.’

The trailer ends after Hathaway’s character opens a bottle of wine by hitting its bottom against a wall, much to the secretary’s surprise.

Eileen is based on the 2015 novel of the same name, which was written by Ottessa Moshfegh, who also co-wrote its script alongside her husband, Luke Goebel.

The movie received widespread critical acclaim, and it currently holds an 89% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
