As the star of the new drama flick The Beguiled, Kristen Dunst stars as Edwina Dabney. Away from the spotlight, the 35-year-old actress is just as lovely in her typically ladylike street style looks. The blond bombshell is a chic sight in this high-collared black dress, which features ruched sleeves and contrasting white piping. Meanwhile, her black strappy sandals and bright red textured leather clutch bring her entire ensemble to life.

1) Jovine Gown, $517: For an elegant and red carpet ready ensemble, look no further than this black crepe gown. The V-neckline, three-quarter sleeves and asymmetrical long hem help to create an elegant and figure-flattering silhouette as well.

2) Classic Snakeskin Clutch, $360: The look of a vivid crimson evening bag can easily offer a much-needed pop of colour to an otherwise basic black outfit. This python skin clutch looks gorgeous with its flat envelope style and bright tone.

3) TOPSHOP Raphael Leather Heels, $90: Try giving yourself a bit of a lift in a pair of black high-heeled sandals. With their ankle straps and towering stiletto heels, this leather pair can easily flatter your long black gown and colourful clutch.
