Queen Alicent Hightower from House of the Dragon is quickly becoming a pop culture icon, with her signature green dress leaving a lasting impression. Worn by Emily Carey during Rhaenyra’s wedding ceremony in season 1, the green gown symbolizes House Hightower’s call to war and the division between the Greens and the Blacks. Olivia Cooke’s portrayal of Alicent only deepened this association with the striking outfit.

Fans recently drew comparisons when pop star Charli XCX was spotted wearing a green dress on the set of her new movie 100 Nights of Hero. The resemblance to Alicent’s attire sparked online discussions, highlighting the queen’s growing influence even outside the world of Westeros.

Charli XCX channels Alicent Hightower on the set of 100 Nights a Hero

Charli XCX is set to play a minor character named Rosa in the upcoming film 100 Nights of Hero, based on Isabel Greenberg’s comic of the same name. Inspired by the folk tales in One Thousand and One Nights, the movie follows Cherry (Maika Monroe) as she navigates a high-stakes bet involving her loveless husband Jerome (Amir El-Masry) and his friend Manfred (Nicholas Galitzine). To outwit Manfred, Cherry and her lover Hero (Emma Corrin) devise a plan where Hero tells captivating stories over 100 nights to foil his seduction attempts, blending fantasy with emotional depth.

Fans are buzzing not just about the film but also about Charli XCX’s on-set look, which many believe channels Alicent Hightower from House of the Dragon. The green dress and poised demeanor have sparked comparisons, with fans drawing parallels to Alicent’s iconic outfit. While the resemblance might be unintentional, it highlights how fantasy themes, like those in House of the Dragon, continue to influence pop culture. The crossover between Charli’s look and Alicent’s iconic style has ignited online discussions, blending music, television, and fantasy in an unexpected way.
