Selma Blair electrifies NYFW in purple leather dress at Christian Siriano runway show

She's normally seen casually attired while playing with her toddler son.

But all eyes were on Selma Blair at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week on Saturday where she electrified the Christian Siriano runway show in purple leather.

The glammed up 41-year-old displayed her tiny waist in the sleeveless wrap dress, which she paired with snakeskin T-strap heels.

The Grammy-nominated star rocked a smoky eye, nude lip, and put her blonde locks into a sleek updo.

While backstage, Selma met up with the man of the hour, best known for winning Project Runway's fourth season.

Some of the newly engaged 27-year-old's famous clients include Sarah Jessica Parker, Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Victoria Beckham, and Taylor Swift.

'What a gorgeous show and so good to see old friends. @csiriano you killed it,' the Cruel Intentions actress later tweeted to her 48,000 followers.

Blair - born Selma Beitner - is quite the fashionista having fronted campaigns for Chanel, Miu Miu, and GAP.

Not seen Saturday was her two-year-old son Arthur Saint Bleick.

The single mother was last seen doting on the adorable toddler at a Los Angeles farmer's market Sunday.

They were accompanied by Selma's ex-partner, fashion designer Jason Bleick, and the trio looked every bit the happy family.

The Legally Blonde funnywoman split with the tattooed 43-year-old a year ago after a two-year courtship.

Three months ago, the stylish mother-of-one was sacked from her steady role on FX's Anger Management.
However, Selma might be able to exact a rare kind of revenge on her bitter former co-star Charlie Sheen.

Two and a Half Men's series creator Chuck Lorre was not opposed to the idea of Blair playing Charlie Harper (Sheen)'s long-lost daughter.

'I guess she’s available, huh? She’s a good actor,' the seven-time Emmy nominee told Screen Crush at a TCA press tour in July.

She's certainly not a teen queen anymore! Selena Gomez takes to the stage in London wearing racy leather hotpants

She’s performing two special dates in London over the weekend as she continues to promote her new album, but her raunchy outfit demanded as much attention as he music when she took to the stage at the revamped Hammersmith Apollo on Saturday night.
Indeed, Selena Gomez wowed fans at the venue when she opened her set in a pair of tight leather hotpants to perform tracks from current long-player Stars Dance.
The 21-year-old singer and actress teamed her skimpy bottoms with breezy white top and sheer tights, while the chunky gold chains around her neck gave the overall look a distinctly urban flourish.

Selena completed the look with a pair of mid-length black boots as she worked her way through the opening songs of a lively set that included hit single Come & Get It, Slow Down and Love Will Remember.
The young star recently jetted into the UK from Paris as she continues her Stars Dance world tour, making her announcement public with  tweet to her 17,000,000 Twitter followers on Saturday.
‘Hi London,’ she wrote, just hours before taking to the stage for the first of two sold-out shows in London.

Away from music Selena has been promoting new film Getaway, in which she stars alongside Hollywood stars Ethan Hawke and Jon Voight.
Despite her best efforts the thriller has failed to make an impact at the box-office, with critics lining up to give it a mauling following its US release on August 30.
Speaking to the New York Daily News, Selena – whose last long-term relationship was with Justin Bieber – admits she finds it hard to ignore the constant rumours and speculation surrounding her private life.

‘It does get to me,’ she said. ‘I'm a human and I feel those emotions of when people talk about you. It's never a good feeling ‘cause half the time it's just bull, it's not real.’
‘In the real world I'll drive my car to the grocery store and buy myself some food. In the media world it's like, 'Oohhh, I drive my car to go somewhere secretive.' It gets too clouded so I just have good people around me. I'm very picky,’ she admitted.
‘The hardest part (is) just trying to find someone that will just love the core person and not anything else around it.

Jessica Alba explores NY with daughter Haven before glamming up for Charlotte Ronson's Fashion Week show

If there's proof that you can have it all, then surely Jessica Alba is it.
The movie star turned entrepreneur showed just how she makes her busy life work on Saturday as she combined family with fame at New York Fashion Week.
Having spent the day exploring the city with her two-year-old daughter Haven, Jessica glammed up for a front row seat at the Charlotte Ronson show at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week.

The 32-year-old spent her evening watching models walk the runway in Charlotte Ronson's Spring 2014 collection.

Jess wore a leather-like pleated mini skirt and a black and white striped top to the Lincoln Center event.

She complemented her ensemble with black knee-high stockings, black shoes and a leather-like black jacket.

Earlier in the day, Jessica swapped her skirt and heels for black flats, black trousers, a flower print top and a leopard patterned tote. Her best daytime accessory by far, though, was her two-year-old daughter Haven.

Jessica smooched her adorable daughter before heading into the Trump Soho Hotel.

Solo Angelina Jolie Missing Brad as she takes her excited brood fish-spotting at Sydney Aquarium

No-one could accuse Angelina Jolie of lacking ambition.
With her fiance away promoting his new movie 12 Years A Slave in Toronto, the mother-of-six decided it was the perfect moment for a field trip.
And the actress certainly had her hands full as she policed her excited brood as they explored Sydney Aquarium ion Australia.

Angelina did make things slightly easier on herself by leaving one of her six at home.
But as it was the oldest, 12-year-old Maddox, she still found herself in charge of five energetic young children.
Luckily for her Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and twins Knox and Vivian all appeared a credit to their parents.
Their good behaviour was on show as they left the gift shop under their famous mother's calm command.

With Angelina smiling serenely in a black dress, as she clutched the hands of her five-year-old twins, sisters Shiloh, seven and eight-year-old Zahara led the way.
With his big brother not on the trip Pax hung back to talk to his mother, as he held a green trinket from the store.
He wasn't the only one to leave with a present - his sisters Vivienne and Zahara each clutched a cuddly orange Nemo toy from the Disney movie.

And it seems the others also went home with some goodies, as an assistant was later seen leaving with six filled bags.
Angelina is currently in Australia to film her new movie.
While it was originally reported that she would film Unbroken in Hawaii, it seems her plans changed following a whirlwind 24-hour visit with son Pax back in July.

It is the second feature film Jolie will direct, following 2011's In The Land Of Blood And Honey, which was nominated for a Golden Globe. 
Unbroken tells the inspirational true story of Louis Zamperini, an Olympic runner and air force second lieutenant who survived for 47 days adrift in the Pacific Ocean without food or water when his plane crashed during World War II in 1943. 
After enduring endless shark attacks and aerial strikes, he was eventually captured by the Japanese and tortured in a prisoner-of-war camp until the end of the war in 1945.

Meanwhile, Angelina has another reason to be smiling, as she is set to be honoured with her second Oscar - this time for her humanitarian work. 
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences will present the star with the honorary Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award at the 5th Annual Governors Awards on November 16.

'The Governors Awards pay tribute to individuals who've made indelible contributions in their respective fields. We couldn't be more excited for this year's honorees,' reads a statement by Academy President Cheryl Boone Isaacs, which was released on Thursday. 
It will be the second Oscar for Jolie - she received a gong for Girl, Interrupted in 1999 - who the Academy praised for being an 'impassioned advocate for humanitarian causes, traveling widely to promote organisations and social justice efforts such as the Prevent Sexual Violence Initiative.'
