‘Freakier Friday’ UK Premiere Celebrates Nostalgic Revival

The U.K. screening showcased the film’s four-way body swap premise with star-powered throwbacks ahead of its August 8 release

The miniature guitar purse, by Judith Leiber, was another nod to the inspiration outfit.
Lohan's look, designed by Ludovic de Saint Sernin, was inspired by one of the original costumes from the 2003 film.
Elsewhere on the press tour, Lohan even wore a faux piece of merchandise for the movie's fictional band, Pink Slip.
