It’s even scarier than Voldemort: Daniel Radcliffe’s first post-"Potter" film, "The Woman in Black," opens today, and we’re all pretty psyched for the dark drama. Even the spooky rhyming commercial advertisements are terrifying—there is going to be some serious watching-between-your-fingers, feet-up-on-the-chair action going on in theaters. But while Daniel may appear terrified of the "Woman in Black," we know a few women in black who are anything but frightening. We've rounded up some of our favorite celebrity fashionistas, who show us that basic black is sexy—not scary. See our entire gallery by clicking on the image below!
From Angelina Jolie’s iconic dominatrix-inspired leather ensemble to Lucy Hale and Selena Gomez’s recent playful cut outs, these starlets are conjuring up plenty of accolades. Even sparkle and fun country cutie Taylor Swift knows that when you want to go high glam, you go with black, as she did in a dramatic gown with a plunging neckline during the 2009 Grammy festivities. Then there's perennial red-carpet darling Lea Michele, who may be known for her bold fashion choices but couldn't resist the lure of becoming a woman in black when she slipped on a lace design with a sheer overlay, perfectly modeling a Karl Lagerfeld number during Paris Fashion Week—so incredibly chic.
