Dynamic duo! Julianna Margulies parades toned arms in LBD and Piper Perabo struts in stripes at MCC Theater gala

She is a red carpet fixture who has mastered the art of a flattering silhouette. 

So Julianna Margulies put her fashion wisdom to work on Monday in New York City at the MCC Theater's annual Miscast gala.

The 50-year-old actress cut a chic figure in a sleeveless LBD that highlighted her toned arms when she hit the red carpet.

But Piper Perabo, 40, played by her own style rules in a bold black and white striped loose dress.

The Good Wife actress Juliana's black dress incorporated floral embroidery around the shoulder and a semi-sheer panel around the decolletage. 

She completed the look with a pair of strappy black sandals and a matching clutch. 

The ER alum styled her hair slicked back, and a splash of glossy pink lipstick added a pop of color.

Meanwhile, Piper's dress had an eye-catching contrast with thick black and white vertical stripes that were incorporated from the collar down the to skirt. 

The blonde looked confident in a dress that had an unstructured finish and featured pleating around the skirt's low-slung waistline.

The collar had ribbons that were designed in the same pattern and stretched from the lapel down to the knee. Wide cuffs and black satin round buttons completed the striking outfit.
