Daisy Edgar-Jones, Nathalie Emmanuel and Tilda Swinton led the star-studded arrivals at the British Film Institute’s Luminous fundraising gala at the Roundhouse in London on Tuesday.
The Twisters star, 26, donned a red Greek-inspired dress for the bash, which hugged every inch of her stunning figure.
Daisy’s backless outfit featured a gold neck piece which she paired with bangles and added extra height to her frame with a pair of chic heels.
Meanwhile, Nathalie, 35, put on a very leggy show in a strapless black mini dress with jewels, leaving all eyes on her.
The former Hollyoaks star forwent a chain and let the message speak for itself as she strutted her stuff on towering black platforms.

Meanwhile, Oscar winner Tilda, 63, cut an equally stylish figure in a black ruffled top which she wore with a statement striped maxi skirt.
The actress wore a sparkling necklace and swept her blonde locks from her beautiful face as she exuded confidence on the red carpet.
Richard E. Grant, 67, was also in attendance, looking suave in a classic black tuxedo worn over a crisp white short and thick bow tie.
The charity helps raise money for the BFI’s archive collections, which help ‘spark creativity and empower the next generation’.
It comes just days after Tilda showed her support for war-torn Gaza as she attended a photocall for her new film The Room Next Door at the San Sebastian Film Festival.
She cut an elegant figure in a stunning black satin dress as she posed for photos to promote her role in the film, a translation of the Spanish title La Habitación De Al Lado.
Tilda oozed glamor in her quirky black dress adorned with black beaded details and a voluminous skirt.
She paired her outfit with a matching fan and completed her outfit with a badge with the words SOS Gaza, as the country continues to be shattered by the ongoing conflict with Israel.
According to the United Nations, more than 1.9 million of Gaza’s 2.4 million residents have been displaced during the nearly year-long conflict.
Israel’s campaign in Gaza has killed more than 41,500 Palestinians and injured more than 96,000 others, according to the latest figures released Thursday by the Health Ministry.

The ministry’s count does not distinguish between civilians and combatants, but more than half of the dead are women and children, including about 1,300 children under the age of two.
Israel launched its campaign in Gaza, vowing to destroy Hamas after the Oct. 7 attack in which militants killed about 1,200 people and took about 250 others hostage.
It blames Hamas for the civilian deaths in Gaza because the group’s fighters operate in residential areas and use civilian infrastructure.
Distributed by Warner Bros, The Room Next Door will hit UK cinemas on October 25.
Tilda stars as Martha and Julianne Moore as Ingrid – who was not present at the event – but previously performed stylishly at Milan Fashion Week.
The drama/comedy explores the rift between Martha (Tilda), a deeply imperfect mother and war correspondent, and her resentful daughter, as well as the former’s relationship with writer Ingrid (Julianne).
The cast also includes acting legend and filmmaker John Turturro, Face/Off star Alessandro Nivola, Esther McGregor, Alex Høgh Andersen and Alvise Rigo.
