By all accounts, Jennifer Lawrence is a rare specimen in Hollywood – a young, talented actress in Hollywood with down-to-earth qualities that make women want to be best friends with her and men want to marry her. In other words, Lawrence deserves your respect, not just for the imaginative way she brings pathos to tricky roles, but also for her sweet nature, generous attitude, and witty comebacks. She is the stuff role models are made of – the kind of person who remains loyal and close to a childhood friend with Down’s Syndrome (Andy Strunk), taking him to premieres and making his calls a priority even during her busy shooting schedules.
Lawrence’s statuesque beauty and slightly husky voice have also helped sculpt her into a fantasy dream girl. At this point in her career, she’s no stranger to the red carpet, and has adopted a penchant for classic looks with a hint of edge. Lawrence, who is currently the face of Dior’s ‘Miss Dior’ line, takes to movie premieres and gala events in feminine gowns that show off her envy-inspiring curves beautifully. See all her best looks in the gallery above as we open the Style File on one of Hollywood’s most inspirational young women.
