Dakota Johnson knows how to serve up a red carpet look!

At the Los Angeles premiere of Madame Web on Monday, the 34-year-old actress — who stars in the titular role — channeled her character in a sheer chain metal dress.

The links in her gown could be likened to an intricate web.

Johnson’s sleeveless, spaghetti-strapped dress sparkled with diamond jewels and featured a plunging neckline. The actress wore nude underwear underneath, and black strappy heels.

Further inspired by the clairvoyant character were her red carpet accessories, which she made sure to not allow to overshadow her show-stopping dress.

Her silver necklace rested just above her collarbone and included a single, large diamond pendant. 

For hair, the brunette wore her signature bangs. Her nails were also nude, which assisted in shifting the focus back to her outfit.

In the Sony Marvel film, Johnson stars as Cassandra Web alongside Sydney Sweeney, Celeste O’Connor and Isabela Merced, all of whom arrived at the L.A. premiere red carpet in stunning looks.

The suspense-driven thriller follows Web, "a paramedic in Manhattan who develops the power to see the future and realizes she can use that insight to change it,” per an official synopsis. "Forced to confront revelations about her past, she forges a relationship with three young women bound for powerful destinies — if they can all survive a deadly present."

Those three women (who develop Spidey-powers) are Sweeney's Julia Cornwall, O’Connor's Mattie Franklin and Merced's Anya Corazon, who attempt to thwart villain Ezekiel Sims (Tahar Rahim) as he attempts to prevent them from reaching their full potential as heroes.

While promoting the film, Johnson has worn a dark color palette, but kept fans on their toes with texture.

During a London photo call for the film, she sported a cropped black Versace skirt suit, and on Late Night with Seth Meyers last week, she wore a sheer black Tom Ford dress.

To host Saturday Night Live last month, she wore a high-neck black Tom Ford jumpsuit with a large keyhole cut-out detail.

The Fifty Shades of Grey alum accessorized the chic look with a black belt with a gold buckle, simple gold hoops, several bangles and a ring from the jewelry brand Verdura.

Then, at the SNL afterparty, she donned another all-black look — a sheer, sparkling, floor-length gown and cropped fuzzy jacket.

For the star-studded event, she also wore black purse, black heels and lots of shimmery details, including a dainty necklace.
