War Horse premiere Elizabeth Olsen drowns baggy black dress jacket

'I'm the curvy one in the family': Elizabeth Olsen drowns her figure in baggy black dress and jacket at War Horse premiere
By Amelia Proud

She described herself to Marie Claire as 'the curvy one in the family,' but anyone can see that Elizabeth Olsen has a stunningly trim figure.

However, the 22-year-old tried to hide her 5'7 frame tonight under a terribly unflattering black tent-like dress and completed the outfit with a boxy black blazer.

It's an odd decision from an aspiring actress attending a Steven Spielberg premiere in New York, but when you consider who her sisters are, perhaps explicable.

'I've always had a complex about being taken seriously. I never wanted anyone to think that I would use my family name to get me anywhere,' she added.

But unlike her sisters, she's had rave reviews for her work in independent films, Martha Marcy May Marlene and Silent House.
