Black and blonde: Michelle Williams stole the sartorial show on Monday, as she dazzled in a chic black gown at the screening of Certain Women at The New York Film Festival

The former Dawson's Creek star, showed off her shimmering platinum blonde pixie locks, worn with a side-swept fringe falling softly around her face.

The Tony award-winning beauty, who has a 10-year-old daughter named Matilda Rose with late actor Heath Ledger, kept her make-up to the minimum with a nude shade of lip and delicately smokey eyes.

A simple gold bangle echoed the detail of her dress, and platform black heels remained hidden under the sparkling lengths of her dress.
