Bold in black and white: Jennifer Connelly looked chic in a patterned dress as she attended the Aloft premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York City on Friday
Thinking in black and white
The new face of Louis Vuitton does not disappoint in this Aztec patterned mini dress. The graphic print of this piece with its shiny black embellishments speaks to 2015's trend toward graphic prints.
Perhaps its most striking feature is the design; with its high neck, puffed sleeves and fluted cuffs, you may feel like this dress has all the bells and whistles in all the wrong ways. Yet the key to pulling off this look is the fundamental simplicity of its colors, making it totally wearable and versatile. This dress understands proportions, the short hem compensates for the heavy top, just as the subtle colors recoup the design heavy garment.
This item is truly a statement piece, rendering the wearer a sophisticated vision in white and black.
Unfortunately, the price tag might also make a bold statement to your bank account. But if you're interested in shopping similar items, check out the selections below.
The funky frock cinched the mother-of-three's waist, with a chain belt wrapped around and dangling down.
The Requiem For A Dream star paired her standout piece with black Mary Jane-inspired heels, as her dark lustrous locks were styled with a slight wave.
Jennifer made her eyes pop with dramatic liner and coordinated with nude slick on her lips.
Aloft has received strong reviews for its story about a weary-looking farm worker Nana (Connelly) who becomes known for her healing powers, but at the expense of the relationship with her son, played by Cillian Murphy.
It premiered at the Berlin International Film Festival in February last year.

Aloft has made waves among film fans and critics alike, thanks to director Llosa's documentary-style techniques in shooting and, according to Variety, its 'ambitious school of allegorical storytelling.'
Elsewhere, Jennifer - who celebrated her 44th birthday in December - was recently revealed as the beautiful face of Louis Vuitton's new campaign.
She has a keen interest in all things fashion, and is currently gracing their Series 2 campaign, photographed by the famed likes of Juergen Teller and Annie Leibovitz.

The actress also recently worked on the film entitled Shelter with her husband and former A Beautiful Mind co-star Paul Bettany.
Jennifer, who rose to fame as a child star back in the 1980s in hit movies such as Once Upon A Time In America and Labyrinth, proved she has well and truly grown up into a stunning woman.
The actress' next film project is American Pastoral, which is currently in pre-production.
The film is centred around a postwar America as a man watches his perfect life fall apart as his daughter's new political affiliation threatens to destroy their family, according to IMDb.
Phillip Noyce is slated to direct the film as Dakota Fanning and Ewan McGregor will also be starring. American Pastoral is set for release sometime in 2016.
