Amanda Seyfried smoulders on the red carpet in plunging black futuristic flamenco dress at Les Misérables premiere

If being first on the red carpet was a daunting prospect for Amanda Seyfried she certainly didn't show it in London on Tuesday evening.
Amanda drew gasps in her futuristic flamenco Valencia ensemble as she met fans in Leicester Square just before the much awaited UK Les Misérables premiere.
Her tight dress set the standard for glamour and she was followed by movie mother Anne Hathaway, who plays Fantine, who followed in a unique glamorous pearl Givenchy gown that boasted sequin detail and off the shoulder sleeves.
