In September 2015, Anna Kendrick brought her signature mix of polish and playful charm to the red carpet at the Toronto International Film Festival, attending the premiere of her action-romance Mr. Right at Roy Thomson Hall.

The film, which also stars Sam Rockwell, Tim Roth, RZA, and James Ransone, gave Kendrick another chance to showcase her effortless sense of style — this time in a modern, monochrome look that balanced elegance with a hint of edge.

Anna Kendrick Channels ’60s-Inspired Glamour in Giulietta’s Whimsical Sequined Mini Dress

The then-30-year-old actress and singer embraced a touch of retro whimsy in a sequined mini dress from Giulietta’s Spring/Summer 2015 collection by Sofia Sizzi, first unveiled at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York—a line inspired by Surrealist artist Dora Maar and celebrated for its ’60s-inflected silhouettes, pleated detailing, and sculptural, crystal-adorned heels.

She kept her makeup natural and wore her hair down in loose waves.
