Well, she is a Lady: Downton Abbey's Michelle Dockery stands out at Venice Film Festival in red dress and her sleek dark bob
She's known to most as Lady Mary Crawley on hit period drama Downton Abbey.
But there was nothing dated about actress Michelle Dockery's look on Thursday when she arrived at the Venice Film Festival.
In fact she stood out thanks to her vibrant red frock and super sleek bob which looked like it had been dyed darker.

It could be that she's altered her hair ready for the upcoming new series of the show.
But either way she stunned as she walked out on to the red carpet at the Miu Miu party.
She even accessorised to perfection, holding a small black clutch bag and matching high heels which accentuated her long legs.
