Nicola Peltz wears sexy ice blue dress

She set to cause waves as the leading lady in the new Transformers: Age Of Extinction movie, and actress Nicola Peltz, who plays Tessa Yeager, stood out on the red carpet on Wednesday.

The 19-year-old joined actor Mark Wahlberg, who plays her father Cade, at the Hong Kong premiere of the film, where she dazzled in a sexy floor-length gown.

The ice-blue halter-neck number featured a cut-out panel from the bust to the waistline and had a glittering beading detail on the neckline and around the waistband.

She seemed to be quite taken with the location of the premiere, tweeting: 'Hong Kong is sooo stunning!! #transformers4d.'

Her co-star Mark cut a smart figure in a taupe suit which he teamed with a light blue tie as he waved to his fans on the red carpet.

Nicola is keen to point out the differences between her character and Megan Fox and Rosie Huntington-Whitely, who played the lead female roles before her.

She told Interview magazine: 'I play a daughter, so this one is different. She is younger than the other Transformers girls.

'Rosie [Huntington-Whiteley, star of Transformers: Dark of the Moon] was about 24, and I play 16 or 17.

'My character is still in high school. She’s not allowed to have a boyfriend. It’s a father-daughter story.'

Set four years after Transformers: Dark of the Moon, it's the first flick not to feature original star, Shia LaBeouf, but also stars Kelsey Grammar and John Goodman.

According to imdb, it tells the story of an automobile mechanic and his daughter, who make a discovery that brings down the Autobots and Decepticons.

Later that evening Nicola Peltz attended Imagine Dragons performance at the Ocean Terminal Rooftop Car Park to celebrate the worldwide premiere screening of Transformers: Age of Extinction.

The actress wore a black leather top with a lace skirt that showed off her high-waisted knickers beneath.
