Whilst everyone else at the re-opening of the Chanel Soho boutique in New York City opted for standout looks, Leighton Meester went subtle and sophisticated.
She could’ve had her pick from the extensive Chanel collections, but opted for a Chanel LBD which she simply decorated with a gorgeous statement necklace.
I’m surprised by her choice, but not disappointed by the results.
She looks amazing.

I love this – the way the chunky shards of the necklace relate to the cut out hem, and then for the rest, just simple, simple – we are getting more of these polished bare bones looks, and they really make a strong statement to me.
I totally agree. I used to get turned off by this kind of ‘bare bones’ look as you say, but its beautiful.
Leighton looks drop dead gorgeous. I much prefer this version of Leighton to the Versus wearing one.
I prefer the Versus version but both looks are so welcomed.
I love her here!!! The dress is cute but what stood out was that beautiful necklace! Her make up is so pretty!
Her dress and necklace is gorgeous, but I am very sceptical to her very foundationy face.
She looks amazing she can pull off a lot of different looks. I adore her make up. Best dressed at this event.
Can’t wait to see what she wears to FNO tonight.
She looks so beautiful here. I love her hair and make up. Drop dead gorgeous. Definitely BDOTW worthy.
Her and Rachel Bilson were my favourite at this event.
Gorgeous!
She looks great and simple for once, but her make up seems a bit odd
WOW… Leighton looks gorgeous… Seems like she is back for her old good times for good. And I absolutely loved her make up too… goes so well with the whole look… very simple and chic at the same time.
Leighton was really pretty in the Versus outfit ( although i did’n t like the dress that much), but here she’s looking STUNNING!
hope she’s continues making good choices like this/1
Though Leighton’s worn black a lot, this look is a real departure. She doesn’t look like she’s trying too hard. The dress is ladylike and lovely, but what made me fall in love was the necklace. It was the perfect accessory for this look.
Leighton looked pretty in teh Versus outfit (although i didn’t like the dress that much)
But here she looks STUNNING!
Hope she continues chosing more outfits like this on the red carpet: modern but not too strange
wow.. gorgeous! BDOTW ?
i didn’t even recognise her at first
her make-up is amazing and her dress is very sophisticated
Amazing as always
I love that shes not trying too hard here. Simple and elegant. Very Chanel.
I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS LOOK!
BDOTW contender!
wow she looks old here! The fake tanning is not working for her and neither is the dress! A shame really cause Leighton has an amazing body and face and could almost pull anything off!
Love the necklace, simple but effective! She looks so pretty!
She looks good. Leighton is usually so over the top styled that this is a refreshing look.
