Back in October 2016, Anna Kendrick brought her signature mix of elegance and edge to the red carpet at the Los Angeles premiere of The Accountant.
The actress had just wrapped up promoting her animated hit Trolls in New York City when she jetted to Hollywood for the high-profile event, serving a striking all-black look that perfectly captured Moschino’s bold Fall 2016 aesthetic.

The then-31-year-old actress looked fierce in an all-black look, which worked perfectly against her alabaster complexion.
Anna wore an off-the-shoulder black dress from Moschino’s Fall 2016 collection, showcasing both her legs and cleavage. The dress featured a puffy skirt, a cleavage-baring neckline, and contrasting leather belts that accentuated her slender frame.
