Remember that scene in Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire when Hermione makes her grand entrance at the Yule Ball? Everyone—both in and out of the movie—gasped; Frizzy-haired Granger was all grown up. Well, we experienced the same reaction after looking at Emma Watson on the cover of July's Vogue and the accompanying spread—wow, wow, wow, wow. The star gets dark and '80s glam, inspired, perhaps, by Robert Palmer's cult music video for "Addicted To Love." The high-gloss lips, strong cheekbones, heavy eye makeup, and slicked-back hair could belong to those guitar-wielding backup dancers, though instead of their signature black dresses, Watson's rocking statement pieces that would make Jerry Hall reminiscence. A Tom Ford chain mail top, McQueen jewel-encrusted thigh-high boots, and Prada's paillette dress are perfect for sliding past the velvet ropes or power-power lunching at the Four Seasons circa 1984. We wonder what Ron would say?
