Tuesday night welcomed a blanket of stars onto the red carpet for the premiere of Asteroid City in New York. Among the star-studded attendees was Scarlett Johansson, who offered fans more than they bargained for with her alternative evening aesthetic.

The 38-year-old graced the scene in a white gown sourced from Carolina Herrera featuring a mermaid silhouette, all-over ruched detailing, a pristine ivory hue, a strappy halter-neck and a floral corsage fastened to the breastplate of the garment.

She wore her blonde hair swept back into a 1920s-esque side updo to reveal an uber-glamorous makeup blend featuring a flawless complexion, a dusting of rose blush and a glossy lip. A pair of Gianvito Rossi heels infused her attire with a touch of sparkle.

 A pair of pearl drop earrings added to her decadent Gatsby aesthetic, in addition to a sprinkling of silver and gold gemstone rings. She was joined on the red carpet by Margot Robbie, who dazzled in a bandeau Schiaparelli number featuring a velvet finish.

However, the star of the show was Scarlett’s epic back tattoos which were enhanced by the backless design of her dress. The actress showed off her expansive body art, a large sprawling rose, and a lamb illustration.

Fans adored the public glimpse of Scarlett’s inkings. “I forgot to breathe she’s way to pretty,” one wrote via social media, as another said: “She’s looking so flawless.” A third added: “She’s so wonderful,” and a fourth agreed, commenting: “Goddess.”

Serving up a dreamy cotton candy aesthetic, Scarlett sported a beautiful satin gown complete with a strapless neckline and waist-cinching paneling that cascaded into a structured column skirt. Her sugar pink dress was elevated with a cheeky peek-a-boo bralette that exposed her famous back tattoo.

The Jojo Rabbit actress styled her silky hair in a choppy bob worn in Hollywood waves, complete with a slick of red lipstick and some glowy peach-toned blush to complement her flawless complexion. Of course, no red carpet ensemble is complete without a dusting of diamonds, of which Scarlett donned celestial star diamond earrings in her lobes, along with a sparkling ear party of stacked rings and delicate bejeweled studs.
