Anna Kendrick In Rasario – Hilton & American Express Launch Event

Anna Kendrick shone bright at the Hilton & American Express launch event on Tuesday (January 30) in New York City.

The ‘Pitch Perfect 3’ actress was clad in a Rasario Pre-Fall 2017 look which juxtaposed rich black velvet sleeves and a bow detail with a shimmering strapless dress.

The combination offers a striking finish that is sensual yet sweet.

Without the contrasting fabric, it would have been just another sparkly dress.

She sought to heighten the textural play with a holographic mini bag, but it detracted slightly from the opulence of the piece. More successful were her black heels.
