Interestingly, Kate Bosworth donned an angelic, custom gold-foil-painted tulle gown from Oscar de la Renta, the same designer who created Nicki Minaj’s devilish temptress look. The “Before I Wake” star added a virginal bride touch to her ensemble with a custom Oscar de la Renta zardosi-embroidered veil featuring teardrop mother-of-pearl fringe framing the face.

Tacori jewelry, a Jeffrey Levinson clutch, and metallic gold Manolo Blahnik “Estro” clear-strap ankle-tie sandals completed her outfit.
