Dangerously Low Necklines

Hilary Swank's Red Carpet Gown is Sizzling

Hilary Swank’s red carpet gown was absolutely smoking. Wearing a Armani Prive concoction, the starlet was smoldering on the red carpet of the 2010 Vanity Fair Oscar Party.

The neckline of the gown plunges deep into her midsection leaving a daring scene of her chest for onlookers. Accessorized with heavily diamond encrusted pendant that hung precariously between her cleavage, the entire ensemble was as chic as it was sexy.
