Little Lady Liberty! Teenager Elle Fanning pays homage to New York landmark



As the younger sister of Dakota Fanning, she emerged on the Hollywood scene as a child star.



But Elle Fanning was eager to show the lady she is becoming as she dressed up as New York’s Statue of Liberty on Wednesday.

The 14-year-old took to Instagram to share a photograph of her Halloween outfit.

What a lady: Elle Fanning dressed as the Statue of Liberty for Halloween this year

Elle was a posing professional as she wore a metallic maxi dress.

She teamed the sparkling gown with silver shoes and of course wore the classic costume pieces of the tourist attraction often called Lady Liberty.

The blonde wore a blue spiky crown on top of her straight locks and carried a torch in the style of the sculpture which can be viewed on Liberty Island on the United States’ East Coast.

Her costume was particularly poignant in the wake of the devastating Superstorm Sandy.

Striking a pose: Fanning arrives at ELLE's 19th Annual Women In Hollywood Celebration

The model and fashion week regular has definitely got a knack for parading her best angles.

Earlier this month she was spotted working the photo area at ELLE’s 19th Annual Women In Hollywood Celebration at the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills.

Rising star Elle chatted to Emma Watson at the afterparty, looking chic in a Calvin Klein dress and looking far older then her 14 years.



She stars in Ginger & Rosa, a motion picture which tells the story of two teenage girls, Ginger (Elle) and Rosa (Alice Englert) living in London in 1962.
