But Gemma Arterton opted to keep things simple as she attended The UNICEF Halloween Ball at One Mayfair in London on Thursday night.
Instead of a tacky fancy dress option, Gemma wowed in a stunning backless negligee-dress as she made a stylish appearance at the annual event.
What a treat! Gemma Arterton wowed in a plunging
negligee-style dress for the UNICEF Halloween Ball at One Mayfair on
Thursday night
Dressed to impress: Gemma showed off her curves in the dress, which featured lace detailing along the neckline
The 27-year-old actress showed off her enviable curves in the black gown, which clung to her figure in all the right places.
Adding something of a spooky twist to her look, Gemma teamed the dress with a smoky silver eye, which gave her overall ensemble an ethereal quality.
Gemma looked calm and collected as she posed up on the red carpet at the charity bash, after admitting in an interview earlier this year that she credits her mother Sally-Anne for giving her confidence to do anything with her life.

Famous friends: Gemma was seen deep in conversation with actor James Nesbitt inside the bash
She told The Sun: 'I have to thank my mother for giving me confidence. She brought up me and my sister on her own and never talked about any problems. I really appreciate how one woman could work hard and be a great mum at the same time.
'My mum Sally worked at two jobs, as a cleaner and seamstress ... I am no campaigning feminist, but just seeing her set an example makes me convinced that women can do anything so long as they have belief in themselves.
'Her ability to look after and protect my sister and myself made us always feel optimistic about life. It allowed me to make decisions, both good and bad, and not feel restricted.'

Jemima Khan went for more of a fancy dress approach to her outfit, wearing a black tutu-style ensemble, for which she appeared to have taken inspiration from Oscar-winning movie Black Swan.
