Drew Barrymore Looks Stunning at HBO Premiere of Grey Gardens

Hollywood actresses tend to get their inspiration straight from the catwalk.But in a nod to the era covered in her new film Drew Barrymore donned a Roaring Twenties style stunning Alberta Ferretti gown for the premiere of her film Grey Gardens last night.Barrymore, 34, accessorised the stunning nude, silver sequin and embellished tulle gown from Ferretti’s 2009 Autumn/Winter collection with a nude coloured veil and a slash of classic red lipstick for the premiere at the Ziegfeld Theatre in New York.

And with her hair teased into a Marcel wave, she looked just like a silent movie film star - with the exaggerated poses to match.Standing alongside the film's co-stars Jessica Lange, 59, and Jeanne Tripplehorn, 45, Drew certainly commanded the limelight with her look which harked back to cinema's golden age.The 34-year-old actress stars in the riches-to-rags story of two charming eccentrics who were relatives of Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis - played by Tripplehorn.

The HBO film is based on a documentary made in 1975 by Albert and David Maysles.They spent six weeks with the reclusive mother 'Big Edie' Bouvier Beale (Lange) and daughter 'Little Edie' Bouvier Beale, played by Barrymore, capturing their squalid life in its raw, uncensored moments.The new film also covers the 40 years leading up to their later years and charts the two Beale women's bond, and why they chose to live in squalor and isolation in a decaying, 28-room house in East Hampton until someone finally notified Jackie O of their condition.
