On Thursday Lena Dunham looked every bit the Sixties siren.

Wearing her blonde locks in a beehive, with oversized purple sunglasses and a pattered shirt that looked straight out of an Austin Powers film, the actress and director was scoring major style points in Venice.

But on Friday morning, Lena asked a very good question when posting a disheveled selfie: 'Is this what Beyonce was singing about?'

Of course the GIRLS creator was referring to Queen Bey's track Flawless which includes the now infamous line 'I woke up like dis'.

It would seem that only Beyonce wakes up looking flawless, but of course Lena posted the picture of herself in jest because of the crazy display of her bedhead.

She also had smudged eyeliner under her eyes, having not cleaned off her make-up before hitting the sack, though Lena says it wasn't because she was inebriated.

'Also, pretty depressing that this look isn't even fueled by one ounce of alcohol,' the actress continued in the Instagram picture's caption.

The 28-year-old arrived in Venice, Italy on Thursday with House Of Cards actress Kate Mara, 31, for the annual film festival held in the floating city.

Lena and Kate were lending their support to the 'Miu Miu Women's Tales #7 - #8' premiere during the year's schedule.

Dakota Fanning, Kirsten Dunst, Felicity Jones and Nicoletta Romanoff were also in attendance on Thursday night.

Lena will soon be travelling to London to talk about her new autobiography, Not That Kind Of Girl.

Dunham will be in conversation with British writer Caitlin Moran at Southbank Centre to coincide with the the book's release in the UK.
