Leighton Meester attended a screening of ‘The Woman Dress’ directed by Giada Colagrande.
This is the third in a series of short films directed by female filmmakers exploring women’s love affair with Miu Miu.
The ‘Gossip Girl’ actress looked breathtaking wearing a Prada Spring 2012 dress.
Her modified version has a deeper plunge, plus the print on the bodice differs but the pleated skirt, which is in a warm lemon colour, remains the same.
I love her chic updo and her red lips which matches her bag, but I’m not so crazy about the nude pumps.
Although I prefer the Leighton’s modified dress. I would happily swap the nude pumps for those runway strappy sandals.
Many of you disliked Leighton’s last look, so would you consider this an upgrade?

Off topic, Alina, comments you and mj made on RCFA appeared in Elle (March issue with Blake on the cover, “Reply All” feature, p. 152). It’s a sidebar article about VB which mentioned Katy Perry wearing the Victoria cat print dress. The mag quoted your (& mj’s) comments about how Katy looked in the dress, with your name and the RCFA website. Saw it this am.
How exciting…I’m going to buy it now
WOW! I want to see it so bad
Here you go

Thank you, FC!
Not a big fan of this.. the top part looks like a bathing suit
Agreed. She’s cute but the outfit (including the shoes) appears very mismatched to me.
Now the dress is more like it. But the hair! I just don´t get it. Matrony hairdo & ugly pointy shoes almost ruin everything. The only explanation: she is having a plain jane phase. Please bring edgysexycool Leighton back!
She looks adorable! I wasn’t one those who disliked the other look, but this is better anyway. I love it from head to toe.
From head to ankles, the shoes are not very beautiful, honestly.
Wow, that’t a difficult dress to pull off.
However she does that and looks angelic.
BDOTW.

Oh I love this a lot, she looks stunning. I much prefer Leighton’s version of the dress and this is far better than her previous look. I don’t like the shoes but I’m not paying attention to them. Her hair and makeup is flawless.
beautiful! looking fresh
this is stunning! i love the styling and leighton looks breathtaking indeed. she redeems herself wearing this prada dress. the shoes are not bad, but they are not to die for either
The pointy nude pumps kill the look for me. I can’t not see them.
+1
such a shame..
I’m not sold on the modified bodice, but overall I quite like the look, also hair and makeup are cute. But i just can’t overlook those hideous shoes, what was she thinking? Prada’s shoes for S/S 12 are the most amazing thing, she should have picked those
She looks like a doll. Love it!
This I love! The modified version is so much prettier on Leighton. I also love her hair. The nude pumps I can overlook.
I love this look! Something about it reminds me of Snow White!
me too!
Me three!
Probably the yellow skirt and blood-red lips.
Thank god this outfit doesn’t have blue in it or it would have been borderline costume…
That’s the first thing that struck me too! I still love this look on her nonetheless!
I like the original version perhaps because of the striking red and navy. Leighton’s ballerina look is lovely though, she’s exciting to watch on the red carpet always!
+1
Yay she’s back on form! I’ve missed her being this good.
I love this! but the shoes are a little disappointing because her shoes are always so beautiful.
stunning! so fresh
This is amazing on her! She looks HOT. seriously what a sexy fit on the bodice. Personally i ger the shoes because its got a lot going on so it needs a nude shoe. That runway shoe is not attractive. In general i think the dress is more flattering on leighton than on the model.
I love it. Completely fresh. Im blocking out the shoes.
I like it, but she can do better.
Also, what has happened to her shoe game?
That beign said, as always I am excited for her next outing, and I cannot wait for her at the Met Gala this year, she is one of the few we can rely on to take a risk, sucessful or not.
I love the whole look,including the shoes.
OMG she looks stunning!! The dress is zillion times better on her than the model. And I like her shoes choice. Sandals will only add the girliness to this already girly look.
I don’t approve of the shoes, especially since it’s Leighton but everything else works for me. She looks stunning.
she is so precious! BDOTW for sure. i really enjoy this new styling direction. i just wish the bangs would grow faster…i just don’t get them. the shoes are pretty safe….i hope she did not lose her skills. after all, she is the reigning queen of best shoes closet!
One of her best looks e-v-e-r.
(Except those horrible nudes!!)
+1. BDOTW material for me despite the pumps which are kind of flattening her feet lol…
I’m not a fan of the modified bodice, it went from a fabulous eye-catching color blocked tank to a cheap revealing leotard.
Love it! she looks way better than the model! very disapointing choice of shoes, true, but overall she looks stunning!
she looks beautiful, but those shoes are way too matronly for the dress. her look at the vera wang show was much better!
she looks stunning!!! ITA: but “her look at the vera wang show was much better!”
the vera wang outfit was so bold. loved the tower high yellow heels…they were special!
Love this – she looks great!!
I actually find this cute very sophisticated, but very whimsical at the same time. I actually like the shoes with this dress, and it’s a very charming look:D
She looks so cute! From the ankles up that is, those shoes make my eyes hurt.
It’s a nice and different look but I prefer what she wore to Vera Wang’s show.
The dress suits her perfectly but I don’t like neither the shoes nor the bag.
If the top weren’t so revealing (really, that is a LOT of skin) and she had worn different shoes, I would have liked it. Her bangs look good here–soft and natural.
I loved it, but I agree with the shoes. Not a big fan of the nude in this outfit.
I like how she was dressed on Vera Wang’s show.
I call his look “blair meets serena” LOL
but I liked it!
LOL, I liked too
the moment is saw this i thought it was christina hendricks…is it just me????
This is a great look! The dress is beautiful and it’s a good thing she had it modified, because the runway version looks really unflattering. She is a BDOTW contender for me!
Wasn’t she the shoe queen or something? I expect better shoes! Those are just too pointy! But she looks great!
i do think she looks great, but it just reminds me of Snow White. . . albeit a more revealing snow White.
BDOTW
love everything about this look!
the styling of the dress makes her look kinda old lady. maybe if the dress was a little shorter it would be funner
she’s perfect
FC where’s wera wangs outfit
we wondering yellow shoes:)
Zanotti
hey redcarpet fashion

Wow what a beautiful dress on Leighton, so much nicer on her than on the model!
Lovely. I don’t even mind the nude pumps. She looks beautiful.
So pretty & fresh, didn’t even mind the shoes!
I liked the previous look and I like this one. I love how she keeps things interesting, you know she’s not going to be boring. She might not always look perfect, but there’s something refreshing about her. However I do think she looks really pretty here, the top she’s wearing is so much nicer than the one on the runaway and so is the shape of the skirt. What bothers me about the shoes is not so much the color but the fact that they’re so pointy (I have something against pointy shoes, but that’s just me).
