Meryl Streep’s chic display at The Post photocall

She has been trotting across the globe to promote her latest film The Post, in which she plays the first female editor of the Washington Post, Kay Graham.

And Meryl Streep meant business on Monday as she sported a floral pussybow blouse for the film’s photocall in Milan.

The 68-year-old Oscar winning actress was joined by her co-star Tom Hanks, 61, and the film’s director Steven Spielberg, 71, as they promoted the film which tells the story of the publishing of the Pentagon Papers.

The Post also delivered solid numbers upon going into wide release in the US over the weekend, estimating $18.6 million for the weekend and $22.2 million for the four-day holiday weekend.

The film, set in 1971, is centred around the 7,000 page Pentagon Papers which revealed the United States’ involvement in the Vietnam war from 1945 to 1967.

Actress Meryl has rarely been out of the spotlight recently because of her involvement in the Time’s Up initiative.

Meryl walked the Golden Globes red carpet with Ai-jen Poo, the director of the National Domestic Workers Alliance.

Writing in Cosmopolitan after the event, Ai-jen said: ‘On the night of the awards, after taking a shot of vodka for courage, we stood shoulder-to-shoulder in front of countless cameras, shared our message with the media, and cheered others on who were doing the same.’
