Rose Byrne was positively glowing this week, when she stepped out for a film premiere in Canada.
The Bridesmaids star, 46, was attending a screening of her latest film, If I Had Legs I’d Kick You, at the Toronto International Film Festival.
The Australian actress turned more than a few heads in a stunning pink sleeveless gown that clung perfectly to her slender frame.
The striking garment featured dramatic pleating and accentuated Rose’s enviably toned arms and shoulders.
Her elegant look was accentuated with a pair of silver peep-toe heels, while she chose to wear her hair back in a classic style for the occasion.
Preferring to let her striking dress do the talking, Rose dialled back on the accessories, save for a pair of eye-catching diamond earrings that fell to the actress’s shoulders.

Rose finished her red carpet look with a subtle application of blush to accentuate her cheekbones, a dramatic smoky eye and a light shade on her lips.
The Platonic star looked very much in her element, happily posing for photographers as she made her way along the red carpet.
She was also seen happily posing with co-stars, including Ivy Wolk, who made a sunny impression in a frilly, bright yellow mini-dress cut just above the knee.
It comes after Rose recently revealed the ‘desperate lengths’ she went to for Hollywood fame.
Rose appeared on Nova’s Fitzy and Wippa with Kate Ritchie Show in July alongside her Platonic co-star Seth Rogen, to chat about the anticipated new season of the hit Apple TV+ series.
It wasn’t long before the conversation turned to some of the Bridesmaids star’s earliest attempts at stardom.
Rose admitted that she wasn’t shy about trying her luck in all manner of TV fare before nabbing her first small-screen role.
‘Did you ever try out for Neighbours or Home and Away when you were younger?’ host Ryan ‘Fitzy’ Fitzgerald asked the actress.

‘Oh yeah, I did an ill-fated soap called Echo Point that I’m sure you’re familiar with – with some wonderful actors, actually, in all seriousness, that was not….’ she said before trailing off.
Seth then diplomatically interjected with: ‘It did not have the legs.’
Continuing, Rose admitted that she did, indeed, audition for both iconic soaps, and was rejected.
‘Oh yeah, I auditioned for Neighbours and Home and Away… all of them,’ she said.
Billed as a Home and Away ‘killer’, Echo Point was a short-lived soap that aired on Network Ten from June to December 1995.
Rose starred as ‘good girl’ Belinda O’Connor in the soap, alongside Tom Long, Jessica Napier, Martin Henderson and Diarmid Heidenreich.
Originally airing at 7pm to combat the iconic Seven soap, Echo Point failed to resonate with audiences, finishing its one-season run in the 11.30pm graveyard slot.
It comes after it was announced that Rose’s breakthrough 1999 Australian movie Two Hands is set to receive a sequel 25 years later.

The film starred a 19-year-old Heath Ledger and Rose in a hilarious and gritty gangster story which has since developed a cult following.
It was written and directed by Australian filmmaker Gregor Jordan, who recently told The Sydney Morning Herald he had finished writing a sequel.
‘We have a script that I think is really good. It brings it into the modern day,’ Jordan said.
‘If we’d tried to do a sequel five years later, it probably wouldn’t have worked, but 25 years later is the right time.’
