Radiant in white! Julianne Moore, 52, outshines her much younger co-star Chloe Moretz, 16, in a figure-hugging gown at premiere of their new movie Carrie
She is one of Hollywood's hottest young stars who is usually known for her edgy sense of style.
But Chloe Moretz dressed way beyond her years at the premiere of her new movie Carrie on Monday night in Hollywood, California.
With the 16-year-old playing the title role in the reboot of the legendary horror film, it gave her plenty of room to perhaps play up her wardrobe choice for the evening.

Playing it safe: Julianne Moore donned a dazzling white gown, while younger co-star Chloe Moretz played it safe in a green floral and lace dress for the premiere of their new movie Carrie on Monday night in Hollywood
However, instead, Chloe donned a safe green floral and lace satin dress, which while was pretty on the younger actress, appeared suited for a more mature star.
Outshining everyone on the red carpet, however, was Julianne Moore, who at 52, is 36 years older than her blonde teenage co-star.
The stunning redhead was radiant in a white flowing gown, which perfectly complimented her alabaster complexion and skimmed her fabulous physique with it's figure-hugging cut.

Following the current hot monochrome trend, the actress toted a black and white clutch that featured hints of gold and bronze.
Julianne coiffed her famous russet locks out in a straight style and had applied a dramatic smokey eye.
Carrie is directed by Kimberly Peirce, who was behind controversial but awarding winning films Boys Don't Cry and Stop-Loss, and is already receiving a lot of hype despite it being a remake.
Cuddling up: Chloe cuddled up for a happy snap with fellow co-star Judy Greer, who plays Miss Desjardin in the film
Having a laugh: The pair broke into fits of giggles as they posed on the red carpet
Beauty in black: Judy went for an edgy look in a little black dress which featured a leather skirt
The movie is a re-imagining Stephen King's first novel of the same title and follows the 1976 original, directed by Scarface's Brian De Palma.
The terrifying original starred a young Sissy Spacek.
Both follow the same story imagined by King where by Carrie is a shy girl outcast by her peers and overly sheltered by her deeply religious mother.
Casual chic: Model and actress Molly Sims looked great in a simple pair of black trousers and a colourful and sequined top for the event
However, she goes from shy to deadly when she unleashes telekinetic terror after her prom pushes her over the edge.
The new film will be released on October 18 - just in time for Halloween - in America and on October 29 in England.
The younger actress had to endure an especially gruesome climactic prom scene in which her character gets soaked by an overturned bucket of pig's blood.
More monochrome: Zoe Belkin, who portrays the role of Tina in the horror remake, and fellow Carrie co-star Portia Doubleday both donned monochromatic ensembles
Guest list: Tamara Braun and Jessica Parker mingled with the stars
The meanspirited prank played by her peers sets Carrie off on a bloody supernatural spree in which no one is spared.
Dark Shadows star Chloe promised that the new Carrie version will be a lot different from the earlier film that earned Sissy an Academy Award nomination for the Carrie role.
'I’m doing my own take on [the character],' Chloe told Vanity Fair magazine last year.
Dressed to the nines: The film's director Kimberly Peirce and her partner Evren Savci went all out for the big premiere
'The script is totally different from the [original]. It’s more like the book. It’s a more Black Swan version - it messes with your mind. You’ll see things, and you don’t know if you’ve seen them.'
Recently, Chloe admitted that she had never watched the original film as she wanted to bring her own version of Carrie to life.
'I deliberately haven't watched the original movie. I'm sure what Sissy Spacek and Brian De Palma did was phenomenal, but I didn't want to end up copying any performances,' she told Empire magazine.
Group shot: The cast of the movie posed with director Kimberly Peirce on the red carpet
'I wanted to make my Carrie come to life and not steal someone else's Carrie.'
She also added that being the same age as her character helped her connect with Carrie.
'That's why I really connected. What's happening to Carrie is really what's happening to me,' she said.
'I'm a 15-year-old girl who is basically living what Carrie is going through in the film. Trying to figure out your relationship with mum and with dad and figuring out what your voice is. And that's Carrie.'
