  • Ana de Armas is one of Hollywood's most versatile actors.
  • From playing a Bond girl to transforming into Marilyn Monroe, she's worn spectacular costumes.
  • The Cuban actor's style in real life is just as daring. Take a look at her best outfits so far.

Long before her roles in "Blonde" and "No Time to Die," Ana de Armas proved she was movie-star material in a bold red gown.

In February 2019, the actress wore a Valentino gown that featured a deep neckline and a thigh-high slit.

Always one to keep fashion onlookers guessing, de Armas leaned into androgynous chic by wearing a tuxedo with a ruffled undershirt in 2019.

Before starring in a James Bond film as a Bond girl, de Armas showed potential to take on the lead role herself when she wore a black tuxedo fitted with a black bow tie on a red carpet in 2019.

According to Metro, de Armas was a last-minute show to the "Knives Out" red-carpet event but made her presence well known by rocking an androgynous look. The ensemble did include some detailing including a pink floral boutonnière, a ruffled undershirt, and heels.

At a different "Knives Out" red-carpet event, de Armas wore a sheer-sleeved floral Chanel gown.

As much as de Armas can lean into masculine styles, she showcased her style versatility at the California premiere of "Knives Out" in 2019.

The Cuban actor wore a Chanel organza dress — a lightweight bridal-style gown — which had floral detailing, sheer sleeves, and feather embroidery.

The movie star wore an equally daring velvet Louis Vuitton gown to walk the red carpet at the James Bond "No Time To Die" premiere in 2021.

Embodying the daring nature of a typical Bond girl, de Armas opted to wear a velvet Louis Vuitton gown while promoting "No Time To Die" in London, Grazia reports.

The dress featured both a plunging neckline and thigh-high slit, which channeled a similar ensemble that her character Paloma wore during the film. According to Grazia, the shoulder straps were embellished with Chopard diamonds.

She doesn't just reserve her best looks for red carpets. In 2021, de Armas visited "The Tonight Show" with Jimmy Fallon wearing an elegant latex maxi dress.

Red-carpet fashion is where stars always bring their A-game. But while appearing on Jimmy Fallon's talk show in 2021, de Armas proved she can wear equally daring ensembles off the red carpet.

For the appearance, where she told viewers how she was kicked out of theater school for pursuing her first movie, she wore a latex leather-like maroon maxi dress from Alex Perry, Just Jared reported. The gown featured a skin-tight bustier and plunging neckline.

As a subtle nod to the title of Netflix's "The Gray Man," de Armas stole the show at the Hollywood premiere in a shimmery all-gray ensemble.

According to Marie Claire, the look consisted of a metallic Louis Vuitton set featuring a shimmery bodysuit and flower-embroidered scaled skirt, as well as a pair of silver heels.

Yet again, de Armas proved that she's not afraid to put her spin on masculine outfits in the royal-blue suit she wore to a "The Gray Man" event in Germany.

Putting her own spin on classic menswear, de Armas wore a three-piece tailored Louis Vuitton suit, which came with a matching waistcoat, according to WWD.

Ditching an undershirt, she also opted to pair the look with strappy silver heels, a chic ponytail, and cherry-red lipstick. 

After her appearance in Germany, de Armas was spotted in England wearing a punk-rock school uniform-inspired ensemble.

Once again, de Armas opted for a Louis Vuitton ensemble that consisted of a pleated navy knee-length skirt and a matching monogrammed blazer over a white shirt, according to Grazia. She completed the look with a black tie and heeled black boots.

While promoting "Blonde," a Netflix biopic about Marilyn Monroe, de Armas wore a floor-length pink Louis Vuitton gown. 

The satin gown featured handmade pleats and was constructed from over 60 meters of fabric, according to Vogue. Speaking to the magazine, the actor revealed some of Monroe's most iconic looks actually inspired the dress.

"I wanted to combine the silhouette of the white dress she wore from 'Seven Year Itch,' but also the color of 'Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.' I wanted something light that felt like it was floating —because I felt it was more like her, like her spirit," de Armas said.

She attended the Los Angeles premiere of "Blonde" in a custom-made silver and gold paillette gown with a deep halter neckline.

The gown was reminiscent of silhouettes frequently worn by Marilyn Monroe herself.

She chose to work once again with Louis Vuitton for her eye-catching ensemble. According to WWD, de Armas also teamed up with stylist Samantha McMillen, who has worked with Elle Fanning, Sydney Chandler, and Brie Larson. 

For the Spain premiere of "Blonde," de Armas chose a chain-mail crop top and chic black skirt with a thigh-high slit.

Her ensemble was, once again, custom-made by Louis Vuitton.

Armas worked with stylist Samantha McMillen again to select her statement-making Louis Vuitton gown, which took roughly 350 hours to create. 

"I chose this dress among others because when I saw the sketches, I fell in love with it immediately," Armas told WWD. "The embroidery is something I've always loved. The craftsmanship is an art form and Louis Vuitton has some of the best people crafting these beautiful pieces. I admire that work very much."

"I also love the silhouette very much: simple and classy and, of course, the bows," she continued. "My jaw dropped when I saw those bows in velvet. It was perfection."
