Olivia Wilde played the role of oh-so-chic hostess at the Revlon Luxurious ColorSilk Buttercream launch, held at The Royalton Hotel in New York City on Thursday.
The actress masterfully merged elegance and edge in a modern Talbot Runhof Resort 2013 black leather cocktail dress.
Her beautiful dress has a touch of sweetened drama with an unexpected skin-toned chiffon and eyelet overlay at the bust and sleeves.
While she pulled off the dress with ease, the gold metallic Nicholas Kirkwood sandals are a tad uninspiring against this strong look.
Black platform sandals, similar to what the designers styled this dress, would have been a power pairing.
I love how Olivia often perfects the fresh-faced look; I guess that’s why Revlon picked her to be their spokesperson.

Gorgeous.
I love it! Sexy and elegant, she pulls it off well. I dont mind the shoes either.
Wow love it. She looks stunning. I bet it will be really hard to choose BDOTW tomorrow, right FC?
yep
Love this! I kinda like the shoes too.
The edgy/elegant look is gorgeous. It’s been a while since I’ve liked a look from her. The shoes give a sweet feel to the dress suitable for the event.
i think i would prefer the chiffon thing in black, maybe? or at least not in flesh tone. in flesh tone it looks like an exposed bra or something. other than that, she looks amazing.
I like the silhouette but the nude chiffon makes it too risque for my taste. The shoes are nice but don’t go.
Nice! I don’t think the shoes are a great choice, but they’re not so “off” that they ruin the look.
Amazing dress!Never knew leather could look so feminine ^^
I love it from the ankles up. The shoes don’t go with this dress.
Love the dress and how it fits her like a glove.
I quite dislike those shoes with it, though. Any pair of interesting black sandals would have been better.
Unfortunately, I actually find this a little boring.
Came back to take another look at this one. I didn’t think (or couldn’t remember) that she had such a nice figure. This dress is very flattering.
