As the antagonist to Natalie Portman’s Swan Queen character in “Black Swan,” Mila Kunis was certainly no angel is disguise. So on Monday night, the dark beauty chose, quite literally, a dark beauty of a dress in which to wear to the Gotham Independent Film Awards. And while dark is hardly a word ever associated with Oscar de la Renta, this gorgeous navy silk gazar dress, with its almost thorn-like fabric points at the bosom and plucked (pun intended) straight from the Spring 2011 runway, was a fabulous choice–both for its fit and full-on glamour. Note the black silk organza flowers cascading across the fabric (perhaps in tune with explaining the “sharp edged” bodice) and the all-business black leather perforated belt cinching that oh-so-tiny dancer’s waist. Overall, it’s a deviation for Kunis, who more often than not wears her hair down in approachable waves while on the red carpet. But sometimes it’s nice to take a walk on the wild side–so as long as you let Oscar lead the way.
