Anne Hathaway’s leg harnesses may have stolen the spotlight at last night’s New York premiere of Les Miserables, but plenty of other celebrities held their own. Hathaway co-star Amanda Seyfried wore a beautiful black and gold Alexander McQueen dress from Sarah Burton’s spring 2013 collection, but the gown took a backseat to her exaggerated cat-eyes and tight braid-bun, which had the unfortunate result of making her temples look freshly stapled back. Eddie Redmayne also wore McQueen, including a silky red pocket square. Click through our slideshow to see the best and worst from last night’s attendees, including Bridget Moynahan, Russell Crowe, and some adorable children.
