How do celebrities get through lengthy movie premieres and red-carpet events in fancy, sometimes uncomfortable clothes?
For "Mission: Impossible" star Rebecca Ferguson, the answer is simple: leggings.
The Swedish actor attended the "Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One" premiere in Rome, Italy, on Monday, and wore a sleeveless, black-velvet gown designed by Emporio Armani.
The dress was simple, but stood out thanks to its twisted straps, scooped neckline, and floor-length pleated skirt.
Ferguson's look evoked glamour on the red carpet, but was hiding a casual secret. In a video shared by journalist Courtney Howard on Twitter, the actor is seen lifting the skirt of her gown to reveal gray, rolled-up leggings underneath.
It's unclear why Ferguson chose to wear the athleisure garment beneath her dress, but she seemed comfortable in the outfit, dancing for fans before stepping onto the red carpet. Tom Eerebout, her stylist for the evening, did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.

On Twitter, fans loved Ferguson's commitment to staying casual.
"I mean, she might have to chase someone across a roof at a moment's notice. That's just practical," one person joked.

Ferguson wore the gown — which also had pockets — with platform sandals, silver bangles, matching rings, and a statement necklace. For makeup, she wore burgundy lipstick and black-dot makeup in place of eyeliner.
On the red carpet, Ferguson also shared an embrace with costar Tom Cruise. Photographers captured both actors holding hands and kissing each other on the cheek before heading into the movie premiere.
