At the Venice Film Festival this afternoon, Madonna attended a photo call for her directorial debut, W.E., wearing a tailored black L'Wren Scott dress with a high lacy neckline and white cap sleeves. She added black heels and a crucifix necklace.

Madonna's been known to take a page from the Catholic playbook every now and again, but does this outfit look almost look too authentic? Or do you like its black-and-white simplicity?
