That's some fancy footwear! Adrien Brody is overshadowed by girlfriend Lara Lieto's thigh-high boots

He's been lauded for his acting prowess.

But on Saturday Adrien Brody faced some stiff competition for the spotlight in the form of his girlfriend Lara Lieto's thigh-high boots.

The 41-year-old actor was overshadowed by his other half's dramatic footwear while making the rounds at the Variety and Formula E Hollywood Gala at the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles.

The couple appeared to be in an upbeat mood when they were seen leaving the shindig arm-in-arm.

Adrien unveiled his playful side with a decorative animal print sweater, which he teamed with a matching pair of trousers and leather shoes. 

However, no doubt all eyes were on Lara's platform boots and ample cleavage.

They make a great match! Lara and Adrien appeared to have coordinated with their grey ensembles

The model showcased her bust with a scoop neck pleated mini that also nipped in at her slender waistline while flashing a glimpse of her tan legs. 

Adrien is said to have met Lara at the Cannes Festival a couple of years ago, and the twosome's romance appears to have been going from strength to strength ever since.

A celebrated star whose role in 2002's The Pianist made him the youngest winner of the Best Actor Academy Award (at age 29), Adrien has stayed busy in the movie industry over the past decade.

His most recent roles have included The Grand Budapest Hotel, American Heist, and the television mini-series, Houdini. 

While Adrien is currently filming the thriller Emperor, he recently revealed to Coming Soon he's been scaling back his acting commitments. 

When asked what was in the cards in terms of acting, he replied: 'Nothing that I can report just yet, but we're talking about some interesting projects right now. 

'I’ve kind of pulled back a bit on the acting side because I've worked a lot the past year or so. I've been focusing on a few things I'm producing. It’s an interesting time.'
