Meryl Streep was a picture of perfection when she stepped out for the New York premiere of her new movie Mamma Mia!.

Wearing a stunning white chiffon dress with a daring plunge neckline, the 59-year-old actress proved that she still had it as she dazzled on the blue carpet.

The stunning actress kept in tune with the Greek theme of the Abba musical accessorising  her gown with a cream shawl, silver jewelry and sexy sliver heals.

With decades of experience behind her, the Oscar winner took her time to work the paparazzi.

Joined by her co-stars Pierce Brosnan, Colin Firth and Amanda Seyfried the stars wowed the screaming fans and onlookers.

Streep was also joined by a host of VIP guests including Abba's Benny Andersson and Bjorn Ulaveus.

The movie-which is based on music from Abba - has reunited the group and they were snapped together for the first time in 21 years at the Stockholm premiere. 

The stage version of Mamma Mia! opened in 1999 and has become one of the most successful musicals of all time.

And the movie is set to do the same.

It has already raked in more than 7.6million since it opened in the UK last week.

The movie tells the story of teenager Sophie Sheridan ( Amanda Seyfried ), who is unaware who her father is as her wedding day approaches.

But after reading a diary belonging to her mother (Meryl Steep), Sophie invites the three potential candidates to the wedding.

The story is peppered with the hits of Abba.

I think Meryl Streep has done a terrific job doing this particular movie as well as her most previous films indeed. If there's going to be another movie like this one or perhaps maybe a sort of different movie that's relates to either sing or dance I think I will definitely would pick both Meryl Streep and Ellen Degeneres for their parts playing two best friends whom just graduated from highschool wanted to pursue their own careers into the music industry and become famous as female rappers and Ellen's favorite rapper is none other than Queen Latifah and Missy Elliot as well no doubt . Meryl Streep in the other hand is one of the most greatest graffiti artist in her generation and luckly she has to learn how to developed her own particular style of doing it as well .
