Zooey Deschanel in corset dress

Zooey is younger sister of fellow actress Emily Deschanel. Emily is the female lead in lighthearted drama Bones, a show on which Zooey has also cameoed. Zooey (pronounced Zöe) has carved out her own niche, however, in a variety of film roles. Although initially somewhat stereotyped as the kooky friend thanks to her natural comedic ability and deadpan delivery, her versatility has been on show increasingly in recent years, culminating in a sterling performance in one of my favourite movies of the year - the superb (500) Days of Summer - alongside another accomplished young performer, Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Zooey also sings and plays several instruments, releasing a highly regarded CD last year with her band She and Him.

I just love this image of Zooey in a corset dress. And, yes, if you need to ask how much it is, you can't afford it ;)
