Elizabeth Banks gives all-black a sleek pick-me-up.

The “Spider-Man” actress was a guest on “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” while wearing an equally chic and edgy look. The dress consisted of a black long-sleeve top and mini hem that encompassed a peek-a-boo cutout design; Banks then paired it with sheer black stockings for a more elevated appeal.

Amongst a revitalization of 1990s and early 2000s silhouettes, cutout designs as well are making a triumphant return to the celebrity style scene this season from Cult Gaia’s beloved twisted dress to Monôt’s peek-a-boo designs. Stars like Saweetie, Kim Kardashian, Katie Holmes and more are major fans of the trend for fall.
