Peter Parker may have been bitten by a radioactive spider, but Emma Stone has certainly been bitten by the fashion bug.
The actress looked stunning in a white lace shirt and skirt combo as she joined her on and off screen boyfriend Andrew Garfield at the Italian photocall for The Amazing Spider-Man 2.
Emma, 25, added a sweet plait to her wavy red hair with a pair of black peep-toe sandals.

Andrew, 30, had equally pushed the sartorial boat out with a pair of floral trousers to go with his black jumper and white shirt, while adding a pair of Converse trainers for good measure.
The couple – who play Peter Parker and Gwen Stacy – arrived at the venue for a press conference ahead of the Roman premiere of The Amazing Spider-Man 2.
Producer Matt Tolmach, director Marc Webb, and actor Dane DeHaan were also in attendance to promote the latest instalment of Fox's rebooted Marvel series.

Past experience: Andrew has said that the fact he was bullied as a child has helped him to carve out his career today
This time around, Peter Parker has graduated from high school but is haunted by the death of Gwen's father and feels he may be putting his love in jeopardy because of his superhero alter-ego.
Also back in New York is his childhood friend Harry Osborn (DeHaan) who finds himself in a corporate battle for Oscorp, which employs not just Gwen, but loner engineer Max Dillon (Jamie Foxx).
Playing someone like Peter Parker - who gets bullied in high school - is not too far from home for Garfield who has admitted to being something of a 'sensitive soul' and a victim of bullying as a child.

'I like to say I was thankful to my school bully, because without him, I wouldn't be in this position now,' he told the Daily Mail.
'I thought that was a weakness, but I realise now those sensitivities can be a real strength. Today I celebrate my sensitivities.'
The emotional and physical bullying he suffered was a 'defining experience you never forget. I have not forgotten who bullied me, but I'm not going to name and shame them.'

Taking time away from his promotional tour last week, Andrew made a pit stop in south London, to visit Kids City in Brixton, an after-school set-up in full Spidey garb.
'I flung the suit off, and came back as Andrew Garfield, all the while apologising for being late,' he said.
