Does Carey Mulligan ever go wrong on the red carpet? We think not! The Wall Street II: Money Never Sleeps showed us how to wear a little black dress effortlessly by donning a subtle sequined number from the Bottega Venetta spring 2012 collection to the 15th Annual Hollywood Film Awards Gala on Monday night.

The actress, currently staring opposite Leonardo DiCaprio in the Buz Luhrman rendition of The Great Gatsby, looked absolutely polished and sophisticated by keeping her pixie cut perfectly coiffed and a slight smokey eye.  She kept jewelry to a minimum with simple black clutch and no jewelry.
