Emma Roberts dazzles in New York City at a pre-screening of her new movie Hick!

The actress looked stunning in a frock from the Red Valentino collection. The dress was perfectly frilly and right on trend-but the all black gave it an edgy appeal.

The neckline had great scalloped detailing while the mid section of the dress was my favorite part with an intricate panel of crochet detailing.

The sleeves were accented with the same embellishment that we saw in the midsection as well as the hemline at the bottom.

The drop waist is right on trend-and hit really well on the stars figure. Plus the different panels really broke up the monochrome ensemble.

For accessories-Roberts didn't do anything in the way of jewelry going bare-but she carried an Edie Parker clutch with ice ends and wore Red Valentino shoes as well.

The red shoes-were a great pop of color, but the darker more muted red hue kept the look really sophisticated instead of playful!

For the gorgeous stars makeup, she played it up a tad with a darker shadow and overly lined eyes that we're a little bit smudged for an dramatic effect.

She filled in her brows, defined her cheek bones and finished off the look with a glossy lip.

For her hair-Roberts left her blonde locks down with a simple wave and side swept bangs! .
