Sophia Coppola attended a press conference in Tokyo to discuss her new movie, Somewhere, in a dress created by who else… Marc Jacobs. Channeling her signature effortlessness, the Louis Vuitton graphic printed number was simply paired with fishnets and basic black heels. Are you into it? Have your say after the jump.

There’s a whole generation of girls that knows Stephen Dorff best, or perhaps only, from his transformative role as…the guy who rescued Britney Spears from a bathtub in “Everytime.” With Somewhere, the latest tender, plotless, irresistible film by Sofia Coppola (in theatres January 7), that should change. The love story of an adolescent father (pill-popping, bed-hopping movie star Johnny Marco) and his preternaturally wise girl-child (played by Elle Fanning), Somewhere is less Stephen Dorff’s comeback than his redemption. It’s a makeover in which he looks a lot like himself: the wild, damaged wonderboy every unreasonable woman wants to fix.

On a Monday morning at Toronto’s Hazelton Hotel, Dorff sat down to a breakfast of sliced fruit, a Diet Coke, and Camel Lights. He wore old jeans and a T-shirt, like in the film, and didn’t seem particularly showered. “I feel like hell,” he growled; sure, but hell looks good on him. And when the tape rolled, he was gold: talking eagerly and untiredly about everything from Johnny Marco’s “classic look” to Sofia Coppola’s un-Hollywood-ness to Elle Fanning’s new favourite bracelet. Guess who bought it? Yep. Don’t pretend you’re not falling.
