Nina Dobrev was visibly confused after being rushed off the red carpet at the Venice Film Festival.
The Vampire Diaries actress, 37, was posing for photos during the festival's Opening Ceremony in Venice, Italy, on Wednesday, September 2, when a man in a black suit approached her and attempted to usher her down the carpet.
In a video shared by The Sun, Dobrev seemed taken aback, but continued to show off her sparkling, black gown, which was adorned with an olive-green and black tulle train.
While the Degrassi alum was intent on keeping a smize for the cameras, she was approached by a second festival official and eventually moved down the line. Flashing a frown for the cameras, Dobrev walked quickly across the red carpet, despite protests from her adoring fans, who filmed the interaction from the festival's public viewing area.

Claudia Sulewski didn't settle for one spectacular wedding dress when she married Finneas O'Connell. She had an entire bridal wardrobe.

And while the couple's nuptials attracted an impressively star-studded guest list, including Hailey and Justin Bieber, Nina Dobrev, Kristen Bell, Dax Shepard and Emma Chamberlain, Claudia's four custom Oscar de la Renta creations provided plenty of fashion drama of their own.
The bride worked with the legendary American fashion house on a different outfit for each stage of her celebrations: the rehearsal dinner, ceremony, first dance and reception, and after-party.

Nina Dobrev showed off her newly blonde hair during a picturesque evening out, sharing a carousel of photos and videos from a sunset stroll by the water. The "Vampire Diaries" star summed up the outing in her Instagram caption, simply writing, "glow with the flow." The post quickly attracted attention from famous friends, including Heidi Klum, who commented, "Love this so much on you WOW."
Nina Dobrev's dramatically lighter hair was impossible to miss. During her recent stroll in NYC, the actress wore the blonde locks long and loose, with soft waves and darker roots creating dimension as they caught the golden-hour light. Her outfit was similarly understated.
Dobrev slipped into a fitted black camisole suspended from ultra-thin spaghetti straps, pairing the barely-there top with high-rise, dark-wash jeans. The straight-leg denim kept the look casual, while pointed black heels dressed things up without taking the outfit into overly formal territory. In several photos, Dobrev also carried a black jacket in one hand.
The standout accessory came courtesy of Bottega Veneta. Dobrev carried a white Dustbag Notte over her shoulder, featuring the Italian fashion house's recognizable Intrecciato weave and a gold-tone chain strap. The compact white bag offered a sharp contrast against her black top and dark denim.
Dobrev showed the look from several angles throughout her post. One image captured her posing on a waterfront promenade as the setting sun turned the sky orange behind her. Another offered a closer look at the camisole, jeans, and woven bag.

Nina Dobrev stepped out in New York City looking effortlessly polished. The actress was making her way to an appearance on 'Live with Kelly and Mark'. She embraced a fresh summer palette, wearing a pale blue striped High Sport mini dress that blended timeless tailoring with modern simplicity. Styled with matching heels and understated accessories, the look proved that subtle details can make just as much of a statement as bold prints.
Styled by Bailey Moon, Dobrev wore High Sport's 'Isla Dress in Pale Blue Seersucker', which retails for $1,180. Crafted from an Italian cotton-French Lycra blend, the sleeveless dress featured a classic crew neckline and a fitted silhouette. It skimmed the body before ending several inches above the knee. The soft jacquard gave the fabric a lightly textured finish. Meanwhile, the delicate pale blue stripes added a crisp, summery touch. Its short hemline transformed the minimal design into an effortlessly chic and fun micro minidress.
She completed the monochromatic outfit with a pair of Manolo Blahnik 'Jadaron Mules' in a matching powder blue shade. The open-toe heels complemented the dress perfectly, elongating her legs while maintaining a clean, streamlined aesthetic.
Keeping accessories minimal, Dobrev opted for sleek black oval sunglasses. She wore her long brunette hair parted down the middle and styled straight over one shoulder. Her makeup remained soft and natural, with glowing skin, subtly defined eyes, and a pink, glossy lip that kept the pastel outfit the focal point.
The actress appeared relaxed as she smiled while walking through the city, proving that elevated daytime dressing doesn't have to be complicated. With its flattering silhouette, textured fabric, and timeless stripe pattern, the High Sport dress struck the perfect balance between sophistication and ease. Dobrev's latest street-style moment offered a masterclass in summer dressing.
