We know, you feel as though you were just sitting on the beach sipping lemonade. But the season's turning, and your holiday parties [1] — from Thanksgiving family gatherings to New Year's soireés — are just around the corner. While you could stock your closet with simple, modest dresses, Kate Beckinsale [2] made a case for a festive, slightly sexy look [3] at the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts & Sciences event.
The actress was stunning in a glittering body-con tank dress from Sass & Bide's Resort '16 collection. And in case a bedazzled skirt wasn't enough to stand out, the design featured a little something extra: two side cutouts that flattered Kate's figure and sent us searching for midis just like it.
Read on to see the smart, simple way Kate accessorized her outfit [4], and take a peek at the other style stars who joined her at the party. Though Cate Blanchett [5] and Rooney Mara wore gowns a little brighter, we had all eyes on Kate. We've got a feeling everyone will be looking at you too, when you shop her dress below!
