InStyle caught up with the season 3 star ahead of her big night.
There’s always an air of excitement when a new season of White Lotus is coming. Ever since premiering in 2021, the HBO series has become a cultural fixture, delivering iconic moments from incredibly out-of-touch characters, mind-boggling thrills, and haunting prolepsis. With season 3 premiering on February 16, Sarah Catherine Hook—known for her roles in The Conjuring and Netflix’s First Kill—will officially be part of that world, starring in the Thailand-set season as Piper, who she describes as “a spiritual seeker who’s quietly confident.”
But tonight, she's playing herself as she attends the premiere of White Lotus. And that's important: One of Hook's biggest fashion and beauty icks is feeling like she doesn't look like herself, and in a world of camera flashes and glam squads, it's key to hold on to that feeling of authenticity.
The actress dazzled as she stepped out in Los Angeles in a light blue georgette crepe top and skirt from Chanel’s spring/summer 2025 collection, which she accessorized with “Bouton de Camélia” earrings and ring in 18K white gold and diamonds from Chanel Fine Jewelry, as well as a “Coco Crush” ring in 18K white gold and diamonds. It all gave a calm and relaxed vibe that mimics the “spiritual seeker” persona of her White Lotus character. For makeup, she worked with Chanel makeup artist Kate Lee, using products from the brand’s spring 2025 beauty collection to match the vibe of her look, including the Chanel Jeux de Lumières Multi-Use Eyeshadow and Highlighter Palette and the Chanel Rouge Coco Baume Shine Hydrating Beautifying Tinted Lip Balm.
InStyle caught up with Hook as she got ready for her big night out in Los Angeles to get the scoop on her look, favorite after-party snacks, and more.
