Penélope Cruz Proves the Enduring Power of the Nighttime LBD

Penélope Cruz has classic style; she knows what works for her, and she sticks to a neutral palette of often one-colored red carpet dresses. And for Wednesday evening's Feroz Awards in Madrid, Penélope went with perhaps the most timeless of garments: a classic little black dress.

Penélope's outfit, though, came with a history. She chose a strapless, lacy vintage Emmanuel Ungaro number, paired with a Roger Vivier clutch, Christian Louboutin shoes, and Chopard jewels. Her ensemble was all about the little details, including the lace ruffles on the front of her dress, the beading on her clutch, and the exquisite floral shape of her earrings.

It was a night worthy of getting fancy, as Penélope was in the running to take home a best leading actress honor for her role in the film Ma Ma. And with the upcoming release of Zoolander 2, we can look forward to plenty more gorgeous Penélope looks.
