All eyes were on Kristen at The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1 world premiere in Los Angeles later that month. Her stunning J. Mendel Spring 2012 black and iris sequin brushstroke print mousseline sleeveless belted column dress included a thigh-high slit. Neil Lane jewels and Jimmy Choo heels finished off the look. Kristen’s jet black Roberto Cavalli Spring 2012 embellished gown at the film’s London unveiling a few days later was lined unlike the sheer runway version. She added in an Alexander McQueen leather belt to complete the ensemble.
