Hollywood star Gillian Anderson is known for her roles on hit TV series including The X-Files (FBI Special Agent Dana Scully), Netflix’s Sex Education (Jean Milburn), The Crown (Margaret Thatcher), and The First Lady (Eleanor Roosevelt), among others.
When not acting, Anderson is promoting her newly released book, Want, which she describes as “a collection of anonymous sexual fantasies of hundreds of women from around the world.”
As seen below, Anderson turned heads at a Barnes & Noble bookstore in Los Angeles in a stunning bright yellow wool crepe dress by designer Emilia Wickstead.
Anderson reported that she showed up at the Barnes & Noble store at The Grove market “to do a little cheeky secret signing (shh nobody tell).” She added, “Come and get it.”
