Nothing against sweet and simple, but sometimes, for big events, you need a look that goes above and beyond. It doesn't have to be a full-on gown or sequined jumpsuit, just something with a little flair — much like Jessica Biel's lacy layered dress. The star stepped out wearing the Self-Portrait piece, which also featured a necktie detail, at the Tribeca Film Festival premiere of The Devil and the Deep Blue Sea.

Jessica's dress just might be the style solution we've been looking for: classic LBD on the bottom but statement-making on the top, thanks to a cape-like detail. Check it out ahead, then shop what you need to steal this star's hack.
