The drama's title character looked radiant in a Dior haute couture minidress with a striped sequined top, featuring huge side cutouts, and a juxtaposing demure A-line floral embroidered skirt.

The Oscar winner was joined by her third-time costar Bradley Cooper, whom she endearingly called her "work husband," while on the red carpet. The duo's other successful films include Silver Linings Playbook (for which she earned an Oscar) and American Hustle.

"I just learn from her. You always want to work with people who are better than you." Lawrence added, "And I feel the same way about him.”
