Fiery Penelope Cruz at ‘Broken Embraces’ premiere

Published on: 31st July, 2009

Spanish actress Penelope Cruz arrived at the premiere of her current film, Broken Embraces directed by Pedro Almodovar, whose screening was being held at Somerset House located in central London.

The 35-year old actress looked stunning in a bold scarlet coloured suit unwittingly committing the staid clanger of donning a red outfit on a red carpet. Penelope might have been anxious about the British weather, which was evident in the intense red pantsuit tautly rolled till ankle length. She was heard telling the Associated Press that she loved London but had issues with the rainy weather conditions. Well, even if the floods were to occur, her pants would still be high and dry.

Apparently, the actress seems to have been struck by bad luck with her bag being mislaid during a flight taken from Madrid to London. The Bottega Veneta suit seemed like the sole option left for the actress though it did complete justice to her ravishing looks. She was seen sporting red tall wedge heels and a similar coloured belt, with her simplistic hoops and diamond rings being the only feature standing out from the same scarlet overall tone.

Penelope was all praises for the director, Pedro Almodovar with whom she shares great camaraderie, was present for the event dressed in a sombre grey suit. The movie is the fourth alliance between Penelope and Pedro that reveals the story of a filmmaker who in the course of an accident unfortunately loses his eyesight and his efforts to re-connect with life.
