Kate Mara is pretty as a petal as she steps out in a black and white floral-printed dress on a green-juice run with a male friend

On-screen she's known as the Invisible Woman but Kate Mara couldn't be missed when she stepped out in New York City on Tuesday.

The Fantastic Four actress looked pretty as a petal dressed in a black and white floral-printed dress as she headed out on a green-juice run with a male friend, hours before the film's premiere in the city.

Kate, 32, was a vision of sophisticated summer style as she was pictured striding through the streets in the thigh-skimming frock which featured a delicate flower pattern on the bottom half and a white floral-hemmed top.

The Brokeback Mountain star cut a leggy figure in the stylish one-piece which she teamed with a pair of pink court stilettos.

Kate wore her signature pixie crop swept to the side and added a light touch of bronze colouring to her cheeks and gentle eye-liner flicks to her eyes.

The House of Cards actress seemed relaxed as she clutched a healthy smoothie and chatted to her male companion.

It's not surprising Kate was in good spirits as she was looking forward to Fantastic Four's New York premiere later that evening.

She put on yet another effortlessly elegant sartorial display as she arrived to the red carpet and led the glamour in a black leather mini dress as the actors gathered at Willamsburg Cinemas in the Big Apple.

The 32-year-old was joined by co-stars Jamie Bell - who she is rumoured to be dating - Miles Teller and Michael B. Jordan and much like the actress, the gents all kept it smart and simple in black.

Kate showed off her flawless complexion with a neutral make-up palette and pink-red lipstick.

Her pixie crop haircut perfectly framed her face and she kept her look understated with some dainty stud earrings.

Completing her get-up was a pair of ankle-strap stilettos which accentuated her slender legs.

Kate graced the red carpet with poise, placing her hands in the pockets of her A-line frock.

Meanwhile Jamie, 29 - who plays Ben Grimm in the movie - opted for a relaxed vibe in a black T-shirt, trousers and a jacket, adding a casual touch with some dark grey sneakers.

Kate plays Susan Storm/Invisible Woman in the Marvel Comics flick.

The latest reboot follows the exploits of the superhero group after they are transported to a strange universe and return with altered bodies and super powers.

The cast must then use their abilities to save the Earth from a new enemy - someone they once considered to be a friend. 

The actress has been enjoying an extended stay in New York with her castmates, in particular Billy Elliott star Jamie, who she was seen out with several times over the weekend.

However an insider told E! News back in May: 'They are the very best of friends, long-time friends. Nothing more.'

Jamie has a son with estranged wife Evan Rachel Wood; the pair separated in May last year after 19 months of marriage. 

Kate, meanwhile, split from her long-term boyfriend Max Minghella in August after dating for the best part of four years.

Fantastic Four hits North America box offices on Friday.
