We've grown used to Kristen Stewart slouching about on red carpets in tiny Balenciaga pants and dresses. So, we did a double take this morning when we learned that K.Stew's latest look, for a New York screening of On the Road, is by A.L.C.

We like the contrast of wool and leather, and the fact that we're looking at a dress with real sleeves. And then there's the eye makeup. After a long set of seconds dithering over her face, we can clearly state, without reservation, that the risk pays off.

Speaking of black: Which vamp has a better black coat, K.Stew or Nikki Reed?

Sure, with the severe blackness going on in the inner eye area, it's a tad take me to your leader. But, when you're 22, that's what you're supposed to do with your makeup. And K.Stew's eyes are certainly a stronger feature than her lips, which should never, ever be painted in dark red again.

Unless, of course, we're wrong. What do you think of K.Stew's black-on-black-on-black look?
