Rooney Mara Went For Goth Chanel

Since bursting onto the scene as the title character in The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo armed with a made-over hairdo and a penchant for wearing black, Rooney Mara's edgy-gothic style sensibilities tend to really wow. Fast forward to 2015, and the actress is already garnering early Oscars buzz for her role alongside powerhouse Cate Blanchett — and she's been dressing accordingly. Mara wore Chanel Couture at the New York premiere of Carol, and it might just be one of her best looks to date.

She walked the red carpet alongside a Lanvin-clad Blanchett, and she definitely held her own (and all who are familiar with Blanchett's considerable style chops know that is saying a lot). The ensemble in question came from the Chanel Spring 2015 Couture collection, and it features a textured bustier paired with a delicate lace long-sleeved blouse, as well as a similarly textured circle skirt. All style elements combined for a simple, yet striking look, and Ms. Mara managed to really make it a home run with the styling. She wore some minimalistic black pumps, an even more minimalistic slicked-back ponytail, and last but not least, some truly epic eyeshadow.

Fabulous, right? That said, it's certainly not the first time she's tried the whole dark and mysterious look — so, with that in mind, let's take a look at some of her best gothic-esque ensembles from over the years!
