We love that Dakota Fanning kept her look young and fresh at the 2013 Toronto International Film Festival.

‘The Last of Robin Hood’ actress donned a square-neck Valentino sheath dress in electric blue at the premiere at the Isabel Bader Theatre in Toronto on September 6.

In The Last of Robin Hood, Dakota Fanning plays Beverly Aadland, a young actress who was Hollywood legend Errol Flynn’s last romantic partner. The film explores the final years of Flynn’s life, focusing on his controversial and high-profile relationship with Aadland, who was just 15 years old when their relationship began.

A fun fact related to Dakota Fanning’s role and the thematic elements of the movie is highlighted at the beginning: when her character arrives at the airport, it’s in a DC-3 airplane, which, in its military version, was designated the “Dakota.”

It may feel like she has been around forever, but the 19-year-old still has many years ahead of her in the limelight.

Dakota never showed signs of slowing down from her breakthrough performance in I Am Sam. She has four movies coming out this year, including Effie, a film adaptation of a scandalous love triangle set in the 1800s.

Dakota also paired her bright blue dress with Valentino’s nude ankle-strap pumps. Notice how they made Dakota’s legs look even longer?

Her co-stars Susan Sarandon and Kevin Kline joined her at the premiere.
