One of Hollywood's favourite family duos turned heads as they united for a rare red carpet appearance this week - Melanie Griffith and Dakota Johnson. The mother-daughter pair stepped out together in Los Angeles for the premiere of Splitsville, Dakota's latest film project.

For the the glamorous event, Melanie wore monochrome cream tailoring; looking sleek in a double breasted blazer and wide leg trousers, over an open-collar shirt. Melanie wore her hair swept up into a tousled bun and went for a golden smokey eye.

Her daughter Dakota, on the other hand, opted for metallics in different medium, with a shining silver dress. Dakota's floor-length, strapless gown was elegance in its purest form - and mum Melanie appeared to approve as she was seen admiring her daughter's look.

Dakota wore her long, dark hair down with her trademark fringe, and added glowy, neutral glam. Her latest film follows a couple, Ashley and Carey, who are on the brink of divorce. They explore an open marriage after a couple they're friends with - Julie (played by Dakota) and Paul - confess to being non-monogamous.

Splitsville follows hot on the heels of another relationship-orientated project of Dakota's. In Materialists, she stars as a matchmaker torn between a wealthy love interest and her penniless waiter / aspiring actor ex-boyfriend. She stars opposite Pedro Pascal and Chris Evans in the new movie, which has been generally received by both critics and audiences.

Materialists is in cinemas nationwide now. Splitsville releases in cinemas from 22 August.
