Hailee Steinfeld looks bloomin' lovely in floral gown while enjoying True Grit reunion with Jeff Bridges at Critics' Choice Awards
Hailee Steinfeld was nominated for not one, but two prizes at the Critics' Choice Awards when they were thrown at the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica on Sunday.
The 20-year-old turned up dressed to impress in a stunning strapless floral gown that perfectly accentuated her svelte figure as she posed for photos.
Whilst there, she got to share a hug with Jeff Bridges, her co-star in the 2010 True Grit remake that first launched her to fame.
Guest of honour: Hailee Steinfeld turned up to the Critics' Choice Awards blue carpet outside the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica dressed to impress
Her long brown hair had been tossed behind her head, and though her red lipstick dazzled, she'd gone without jewellery.
A small slit at the hem of her gown extended about a third of the way up her calf, allowing her to flash a trace of leg.
The Pitch Perfect 2 star completed her outfit by contrasting its overall colourful theme with a pair of black ankle-strap stilettos.
Reunion: She cosied up to Jeff Bridges, with whom she'd co-starred in the 2010 remake of True Grit, a film that got her a slew of awards as well as nominations for an Oscar and a BAFTA
My how you've grown! The former co-stars looked thrilled to bump into each other on the blue carpet
Too cute: The duo posed up for some sweet snaps
That night, she'd been nominated for Best Young Actor/Actress, as well as Best Actress In A Comedy, for her leading performance in The Edge Of Seventeen.
She'd lost the first award to Lucas Hedges for his performance in Manchester By THe Sea, and the second to Meryl Streep's turn in Florence Foster Jenkins.

The Critics' Choice Awards nominees and winners are selected by members of The Broadcast Film Critics Association.
The BFCA has approximately 250 members - comprised of critics working in television, radio and online media.

They have been conducting the Critics' Choice awards since 1995 and are considered to represent most fully - out of awards handed out by film critics - the general public's taste.
The awards show is often seen as one of the best indicators for how films will fare in awards season.
Over the last 10 years, eight of the Best Picture winners have gone on to take the same accolade at the Academy Awards.

From the years 2000 to 2013 the Critics' Choice Awards' pick for Best Picture also saw these films crowned at the Oscars: 12 Years a Slave (2013), Argo (2012), The Artist (2011), The Hurt Locker (2009), Slumdog Millionaire (2008), No Country for Old Men (2007), The Departed (2006), The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003), Chicago (2002), A Beautiful Mind (2001), Gladiator (2000).
While for Best Actor the Critics' Choice named 12 out of the 13 Oscar winners during that same span of years.
The annual awards ceremony also predicted, by choosing its own champions, eight Best Actress winners at the Oscars in that 13 year stretch.
The 22nd annual ceremony was held at the Barker Hangar at the Santa Monica Airport in Los Angeles and was hosted by comedic actor TJ Miller.
