Maggie Gyllenhaal wows in Stella McCartney for Batman premiere
Maggie Gyllenhaal may be playing Bruce Wayne's love interest in the new Batman film, but last night she was channelling one of Batman's enemies - Catwoman - in a show stopping backless jumpsuit by Stella McCartney. (Click here now to see it full length)
The star chose the all-in-one from Stella's upcoming spring/summer 2009 collection to tread the red carpet for the film's London premiere. It's a piece that won't even head down the catwalk in Paris until October. So is this a heads up that the jumpsuit is here to stay? A key piece for this season, it looks like, if Stella and her band of A-list fans have anything to do with it - that the all-in-one could be sticking around for next summer too.
And we think now is the perfect time to invest in the trend - either with a bargain from the summer sales or one of the new all in one's hitting stores now.

Madonna's Sweet and Sticky world tour kicks off in Cardiff on Saturday. And just days before the big night her team have released the finer details of what it takes to get Madonna show ready.
This year she'll be using Shu Uemura eye-lash curlers - three pairs to be exact, four YSL lipsticks, 180 ear buds (that's a ration of three per night), 200 triangle sponges to apply her make-up and 120 powder puffs.
She's going to have eight major costume changes during the show, as we revealed last month, everyone from Givenchy's Ricardo Tisci to Miu Miu have contributed exclusive designs - and it's going to take five people to get her in and out of them. They, along with the 12 seamstresses on hand for final adjustments.
Madge has also revealed that she's specially sourced 100 pairs of old - fashioned fishnet stockings from everywhere from dance studios world wide to eBay...to wear under the 100 pairs of knee pads she is also taking on the road.
In true Madonna style she'll be revisitng many of her previous incarnations including 'old-school Madonna', 'gypsy Madonna', 'rave Madonna' and this year's 'sweet and sticky' Madonna to name just a few.
It promises to be quite a show!
