Her nature lustre was bolstered by her shimmering outfit and shiny accessories.
For the premiere, the young actress wore a glistening green gown that was both red carpet-ready and fun and playful.

As she walked, The Runaways actress' dress flowed behind her adding some drama but still allowing her to move effortlessly.

Helping her to shine even brighter, the dress was covered in tiny luminescent silver spots which caught the light with every step.
Dakota did not have to worry about wearing a necklace as the top featured a giant round Art Deco-inspired brooch.

The diamonds in dark silver settings also encircled her tiny waist with a matching belt.
While she did not wear a necklace or ant earrings for that matter, the actress still managed to rock some very pricey jewels.
The beauty wore three Tiffany & Co. rings which were worth just under $250,000.
The priciest of which was a platinum ring with a 10-carat sapphire and diamonds which costs $165,000.
The star also wore another smaller sapphire plus a diamond surrounded 3-carat green tourmaline, which matched her gown perfectly.
Different approach: In contrast to Dakota's flowing soft gown, her co-star and on-screen mother Jennifer Connellywore a sleek edgy black dress
Dare to bare: Constructed from leather, the gown featured a zip which ran the length of it and the Labyrinth star un-zipped it almost to the top of her thighs in a daring style move
Taking the plunge: The top of the dress had a plunging sequinned neckline with bone-like beads stitched on
Her co-star and on-screen mother Jennifer Connelly took a very different approach.
In contrast to Dakota's flowing soft gown, the 45-year-old actress wore a sleek edgy black dress.
Constructed from leather, the gown featured a zip which ran the length of it and the Labyrinth star un-zipped it almost to the top of her thighs in a daring style move.
Well suited: Taking an even bigger fashion risk was the director and star, Ewan McGregor
Changing it up: The 45-year-old wore a bone suit with a classic-fit jacket but with cropped trousers which tapered in at the ankles
Stars of the show: Ewan and Jennifer embraced at the screening
The top of the dress had a plunging sequinned neckline with bone-like beads stitched on.
The unusual detail seemed to have been created by a designer drawing inspiration from tradition breastplates wore by Native Americans.
The actress accessorized her look with a pair of strappy heals with metal studs across the foot and a hard rectangular case-like clutch.

But taking an even bigger fashion risk was the film's director and star, Ewan McGregor.

Highlighting the unusual length of his suit pants, the actor skipped wearing socks.

The star's shoes also were eye-catching, with Ewan wearing white and tan alligator hide lace ups.
Ewan helmed American Pastoral which is based on the Philip Roth novel by the same title.
In the film, his character's perfect Middle class American world collapses after his daughter (played by Dakota) radicalizes and blows up a post office.

The bombing was in protest of the Vietnam War and kills a man, leading to nation-wide hunt for Dakota's character.
The film is set in the late 1960s as the country is thrown into social and political turmoil during Lyndon B Johnson's presidency both in terms of America's international policies and also its treatment of its own non-white citizens.
American Pastoral will be in theatres October 28.
