Madonna made an appearance on the red carpet to promote her new movie W.E. Madonna went for a black embroidered silver and black dress from last year’s autumn/winter collection Marchesa. This dress with its chiffon shoulder details has a slight hint of Miss Havisham; not a great look on Madonna.

Andrea Riseborough, the film’s leading lady also went for a Marchesa design. Andrea’s sheer embroidered skirt and top set from the new spring collection is a good look with just the right mix of fashion (this season’s peplum) and Marchesa’s trademark drama.
