Actress Emma Watson made a style statement when she hit the red carpet at the 71st Golden Globe Awards in a vibrant red Christian Dior design.

The 23-year-old's gown from the front looked demure with its flowing fabrication, high neckline, short sleeves and ribbon tie belt.

She paired it up with sleek black cigarette pants allowing for free movement in the dress without worrying about the open back and thigh-high slit details, reports people.com.

Watson added a pop of unexpected colour with a pair of violet Roger Vivier strappy heels and accessorised with one Dior "Mise en Dior" pearl earring on her left lobe.
