She's never had a conservative sense of style, so perhaps it was no surprise that Helena Bonham Carter stood out on the red carpet last night.

The actress chose to wear one red and one green shoe, happily lifting her dress to show the unusual style off.

Helena's look was certainly eye-catching, especially combined with her plunging multi-coloured Vivienne Westwood dress teamed with birds nest-style backcombed hair.

The overall effect was dishevelled and yet carefully put together.

Helena told an interviewer: 'If you're going to spend three hours getting ready you may as well go for it.'

The previous day she had looked rather lower key as she attended a BAFTA tea party in Los Angeles.

The 44-year-old actress looked stunning in a low cut polka dot Vivienne Westwood dress, which showed off her curvy physique.

The event was held at the Four Season hotel in Beverly Hills and saw the likes of Nicole Kidman, Jennifer Love Hewitt and True Grit star Hailee Steinfeld turn out.

The event will take place at London's Royal Opera House in February 21.

Bonham Carter has been nominated for best supporting actress for her role as Queen Elizabeth in The King's Speech and as the Red Queen in Alice in Wonderland.
