Positively regal: Keira Knightley looked stunning in a maroon floral headdress and embroidered gown at tonight's Los Angeles premiere of Seeking a Friend at the End of the World

The star looked almost regal in a stunning maroon floral headdress which she teamed with a beautiful light tan Valentino gown, embroidered with colourful flowers.
Subtle brown eye-make-up, nude lipstick and beige shoes completed the look.
And of course, Keira proudly flashed the diamond engagement ring she received from the Klaxons rocker last month.
The London-born star, 27, started dating the 28-year-old musician last year after being introduced by a mutual friend - British TV presenter Alexa Chung.
Since they started dating, the couple have kept their romance under wraps and are yet to pose together on a red carpet.
The Oscar-nominated star previously went out with her Pride & Prejudice co-star Rupert Friend for five years before they split back in January last year.
Keira's new film follows characters Dodge (Steve Carell) and Penny(Knightley) who learn that the end of the world is coming after a laser sent to space to protect earth from an asteroid impact has failed in its mission.
Dodge goes on a road trip in search of his high school sweetheart and is accompanied by Penny.
'We know that we've got 20 days left and what do you do with the last 20 days?' Keira asked Jimmy Fallon when speaking about the film during an appearance on his late night talk show last week.

Low key: Keira looked a little more casual yesterday as she arrived at LAX wearing a denim jacket and dress
'Is it orgies or riots or taking every single drug that you've ever taken?' she mused. 'Then you've got these two characters who kind of can't figure it out so they go on a road trip to try to find an ex-girlfriend of his.'
And Keira certainly enjoyed working with co-star Carell, who arrived at tonight's premiere with unfamiliar designer stubble and glasses.
'He is an amazing man. He's just the best. It's about the end of the world, which is an unlikely topic for Steve to choose,' said Keira.
Star attraction: Drew Barrymore opted for comfort, sporting a pair of black jeans, black blazer, boots and a loose black top, while the film's writer and director Lorene Scafaria wore a chic white dress
Meanwhile, Carell has been counting his lucky stars over being able to work with such stunning actresses.
'How did I end up in films with people like Keira Knightley and Julianne Moore? he recently told Parade. 'All these beautiful leading ladies and me - it’s kind of shocking.'
Tonight's premiere formed part of the ten-day-long Los Angeles Film Festival and also attracted pregnant Drew Barrymore who plumped for casual jeans, boots, black blazer and baggy black T-shirt.

The film's writer and director Lorene Scafaria opted for a more glamorous look in a knee-length white dress and open toed black shoes.
Actresses Melanie Lynskey, Connie Britton and Gillian Jacobs, who all appear in the film, also arrived to lend their support, with Jacobs showing a great deal of leg in her split black floral skirt.
Seeking a Friend for the End of the World is released in the U.S. on June 22.
