You Said

Is she wearing a snakeskin backpack or is that part of her dress?

I can't say which I would prefer.

I THINK it's part of her dress. I believe I saw a picture of it on a model not too long ago, and if it's the one I'm thinking of, it has a very low back that drapes a little, and the sequins go all around that as well.

She could wear a sack. She's beautiful, a good actor who doesn't mind getting ugly for a part, and seems to be a good and level-headed person.
(Yeah, now that I've said that she'll turn-out to be some kind of freak. News at 11 )
