Mia Goth and her Frankenstein co-star Jacob Elordi were among the cast of the edgy new horror in attendance as an immersive exhibition celebrating the film opened at London's Old Selfridges Hotel on Tuesday.

The actress, 31, who is starring as the love interest of the titular scientist, opted for an edgy black leather dress for the photocall in the capital.

Mia posed up a storm as she attended the launch in the form-fitting black leather dress with a white trim.

She was joined by co-stars including Jacob, Oscar Isaac and Christoph Waltz, with the exhibition set to open on Friday, and will run on selected days until 9 November.

The experience will celebrate Guillermo del Toro’s visionary storytelling and the exceptional craftsmanship of his team during the making of the film.

It will feature a vast collection of props, artwork, costumes, and Tiffany & Co. jewellery featured in the film, as well as rare books curated by the firm Peter Harrington to honour Mary Shelley’s legacy.

The first glimpse of Jacob's transformation into the iconic Monster was revealed in the trailer dropped in June, showing the moment he is revived by Dr Frankenstein's electrical experiment.

Action shots also showed the towering star hidden under a cloak while fighting several men aboard a clipper ship, while another menacing shot saw him standing on a snowy landscape in the distance.

A voiceover of Oscar's Frankenstein is heard saying: 'I had determined that the memory of my evils should die with me. Some of what I will tell you is fact. Some is not. But it is all true.' 

An unseen man then asks: 'What manner of creature is that? What manner of devil made him?'

While Oscar's Frankenstein replies: 'I did. I had a vision. An idea took shape in my mind. Inevitable. Unavoidable. Until it became truth. In seeking life… I created death.'

The Monster is heard growling before screaming his creator's name: 'Victor!'

Jacob scored the plum part of the Monster after Andrew Garfield, Benedict Cumberbatch, and Doug Jones were previously attached to star.

He was approached by Guillermo to take the role just nine weeks before the cameras started rolling, after Andrew dropped out at the last minute due to scheduling issues.

Speaking about coming onboard, Jacob said: 'I was finishing The Narrow Road To The Deep North so I had about three or four weeks only before we started. 

'It presented itself as a monumental task but as Guillermo said the banquet was already there and everyone was already eating.'

He continued: 'I was drawn to this role because it's a vessel that I could put every part of myself into. Everything from the moment I was born to being with you here today, that's all in it in many ways. 

'The creature on screen is the purest form of myself. He is more me than I am as a performer. If you can find yourself in a character that's a really beautiful thing that can happen, and I am only realising it now in hindsight.'

The Euphoria star previously revealed that he had decided to 'go Yorkshire' with the accent for his portrayal.

He told the Daily Mail in August: 'Yes, the accent is Yorkshire – that's a great spot. David Bradley who plays the blind man in the film is from that part of the world, and when the creature starts to speak he learns from the blind man. So there are bits and bobs of Yorkshire in the way he speaks.'

There's been well over 14 Frankenstein films brought to the silver screen including James Whale's 1931 classic starring Boris Karloff and Kenneth Branagh's 1994 version starring Robert De Niro.

Netflix is pinning some of its hopes and ambitions to finally win a Best Picture Oscar on the film, alongside the George Clooney drama Jay Kelly and Katherine Bigelow's nuclear missile thriller A House of Dynamite.

Three-time Oscar winning director Guillermo has said that this was the film that he had been waiting to make since he was seven years old.

He said: 'It is a dream for me and the [1931] film was a religion. I was raised very Catholic and Boris Karloff on the screen was a saint. 

'I had to wait to get the scope to make it at a scale, so that you could reconstruct the whole world and I got that. Now I am in post-partum depression.'

Frankenstein had its world premiere in the main competition of the 82nd Venice International Film Festival in August.

It is set for a limited theatrical release on October 17, before being released on Netflix on November 7.
