She put on a dazzling display in a seriously low-cut dress at the world premiere in Berlin the previous evening.

And Jennifer Lawrence once again stole the show on the red carpet, this time swapping her extreme cleavage for a glimpse of sideboob as she made her grand arrival at The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 2 London premiere in Leicester Square on Thursday evening.

The 25-year-old actress went braless in the daring dress with large cut-out panels under the arms as she celebrated the release of the fourth and final film in the dystopian franchise alongside her A-list castmates.

Jennifer ensured all eyes were on her as she twirled on the red carpet, revealing her cleavage from all angles thanks to the barely-there side panels that snaked down to her hips, held together by gold chain detailing.

The striking star, who plays fearless heroine Katniss Everdeen in the films, looked sensational in the simple black gown with its brown polka dot pattern and classic V-neckline.

The sweeping, floor-length dress was the picture of class from the front until she revealed its added sex appeal from the side, placing her hands on her hips for added impact.

Jennifer styled her newly-lightened blonde bob in a severe side parting and wore the front sections swept back from her face, highlighting her pretty features with rosy blush and a matte brick red lipstick to bring out the pattern off her dress.

Jennifer was joined by her A-list co-star Julianne Moore, who took a fashion risk in a quirky tiered dress as she walked the red carpet.

The 54-year-old Oscar-winning actress, who plays Alma Coin in the franchise, looked sensational in the bridal chic number in its off-white colour and layered lace tiers, complete with high-necked ruffle detailing.

Also putting on a glamorous display on the red carpet was Elizabeth Banks, who turned heads in her unusual ensemble, a ballgown with a masculine twist.

Elizabeth's embroidered cream number might have looked like a classic gown from the side, but the skirt boasted a waist-high split at the front that revealed a pair of fitted black trousers.

Despite being part of a love triangle in the film, the threesome have become incredibly close in real life, with Hemsworth describing Lawrence and Hutcherson as his 'best friends' earlier this week.

The third book in Suzanne Collins' best-selling dystopian triology has been split into two movies, with the first one released one year earlier.

Part One followed Katniss discovering District 13, which was previously thought to have been destroyed, and encouraging rebels to join her fight.

The bow-and-arrow wielding heroine must also come to terms with the brainwashing of Peeta Mellark (Josh Hutcherson) and make her choice between her kind-hearted ally and handsome childhood friend Gale Hawthorne(Liam Hemsworth).

Meanwhile, leading lady Jennifer recently confessed she was inspired to speak out on the gender pay gap in Hollywood because of her fierce character Katniss Everdeen.

'I don't see how I couldn't be inspired by this character, I mean I was so inspired by her when I read the books, it's the reason I wanted to play her,' Lawrence said at a press conference.

Covering up: In the absence of an umbrella, Jennifer wrapped a scarf around her head to protect herself from the London rain

'So I think it would be impossible to go four years with this character and not be inspired by her,' she added.

She said the hardest aspect of playing Katniss was the fact that the character was a slow burn when it came to becoming a die-hard revolutionary.

'I wanted her to be a warrior right away, I wanted her to want to be a leader,' Lawrence said. 'I had to keep my own personal emotions about her situation out of my performance.'

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2 will hit cinemas in the UK on November 19 and the US on November 20.

The globe-trotting promotional tour continues with trips to Paris, Madrid, Beijing and Los Angeles before ending in New York on November 18.
