As the much-anticipated second season of the darkly comedic thriller Bad Sisters hits our screens, all eyes are on its talented cast – especially the incomparable Anne-Marie Duff. The London-born actress, known for fully embodying her characters, from Queen Elizabeth I to Shameless’s Fiona Gallagher, proves her versatility extends to the world of high fashion in a series of striking new photos.
Powerhouse Looks from Top Designers
In images shot exclusively for a major fashion publication, Duff showcases some of the most covetable looks from the latest designer collections. From a sculptural crystal cage blazer by Stella McCartney to a sleek pinstriped shirt and wide-leg trouser ensemble from Essentiel Antwerp, each outfit highlights the 52-year-old’s timeless beauty and commanding presence.
Bold Colors and Luxe Textures
A standout look features Duff in a rich burgundy dress by up-and-coming designer Edeline Lee, paired with sculptural spiral drop earrings from Royal Mint and elegant satin sandals by Manolo Blahnik. The saturated hue and fluid lines of the dress showcase the actress’s grace and poise.
In another shot, Duff dons a playful polka-dot top from Reiss, accented with architectural fan earrings by L’atelier Nawbar and a clean-lined nude bandeau from Heist Studios. The mix of prints and textures creates a dynamic, modern vibe that perfectly complements Duff’s confident attitude.
Classic Tailoring with a Twist
The photoshoot also spotlights Duff’s affinity for impeccably tailored pieces with unexpected details. A sleek double-breasted jacket and trousers from Alberta Ferretti gain an edge when styled with a contrast-tie shirt from Bella Freud and statement boots by Roger Vivier.
Another refined look pairs a silk satin jacket and trousers from Joseph with delicate gold bracelets from Royal Mint. The effect is simultaneously polished and relaxed, a testament to Duff’s effortless style.
“You push yourself to the edge as an actor. Sometimes you fall off, sometimes you fly, and when you fly, it’s amazing.”

The Art of Transformation
Throughout her career, Duff has become renowned for her chameleon-like ability to transform for each role. From gritty realism to regal elegance, she inhabits her characters with a rare depth and authenticity that has earned her critical acclaim and a devoted following.

Pushing Boundaries On and Off Screen
As Bad Sisters returns for its second season, fans are eagerly anticipating the twists and turns in store for Duff’s character Grace Williams and her siblings. The darkly comedic thriller, which follows the tight-knit Garvey sisters as they navigate love, loss, and the occasional murder, has been praised for its sharp writing, stellar ensemble cast, and willingness to push boundaries.
This boundary-pushing spirit is something Duff embodies in her own life and work as well. Known for taking on challenging, complex roles that don’t shy away from the messier aspects of the human experience, she brings a fearless honesty to every performance.
“I’ve never been interested in playing it safe. I want to keep exploring, keep diving deeper. That’s where the magic happens.”
