Sarah Jessica Parker turned heads with another eye-catching outfit last night - but was it for the right reasons?

The dainty actress wore a black bandeau dress with silver beading sleeves and hemline for the New York City Ballet's Opening Night celebration.

But onlookers may have been left wondering if the Sex And The City star had been involved in a nasty scuffle before hitting the red carpet.

The sleeves of her shimmering outfit were full of holes, causing her dress to slip off her shoulders.

But Sarah Jessica - who is always up for a fashion challenge - was actually sporting the 'ripped' look intentionally.

Is she setting any style statements?
