Uma Thurman reveals her cleavage in risqué black evening gown as she leads the glamour at lavish Icons Of Style opening night dinner

Uma Thurman led the way on Thursday evening as the indelible connection between American cinema and fashion was celebrated at a lavish central London dinner. 

But while the statuesque actress looked stunning in an  elegant black evening dress during her appearance at The Ivy restaurant, her ensemble was inadvertently overshadowed  by her prominently exposed cleavage. 

With a risque plunging neckline the gown also exposed a subtle hint of lacy black bra as she sashayed inside for the Icons of Style opening night dinner – an event jointly hosted by designer Michael Kors and glossy lifestyle magazine Vanity Fair.
