Laura Whitmore puts an edgy twist on Princess Diana’s iconic revenge dress and pearl necklace look as she arrives at the British Fashion Awards

Laura Whitmore put on a daring show on Monday night as she walked the red carpet at the British Fashion Awards at the Royal Albert Hall in London.

The TV presenter, 38, channeled Princess Diana's iconic 'revenge dress' look for the star-studded event.

She wore a black off-the-shoulder mini dress with a voluminous skirt with a daring high slit.

Laura showed off her long legs and added an extra touch of sex appeal in a pair of sheer black stockings.

The former Love Island host further spotlighted the late Princess of Wales by donning a statement pearl necklace.

She added a few extra inches of height to her frame with a pair of black lace-up platform heels.

Laura carried a miniature black handbag, several large gold rings and a single dangling pearl earring.

She completed her edgy look by putting her blonde locks up in a punk-inspired quiff hairstyle and flaunting her pout with a dark red lipstick.

It's been a busy few months for Laura, who released her autumn/winter 2023 clothing collection earlier this year in collaboration with fashion brand Next, Love & Roses.

Her party collection features pieces designed for “dress-up dinners or date night plans,” with 63 pieces newly available.

Laura is married to presenter and comedian Iain Stirling and the couple share a daughter who they welcomed in March 2021.

Iain, 33, confirmed they were expecting in December and shared their happy news on his Instagram, a day after it was revealed they had secretly married in a humanist ceremony at Dublin City Hall in November.

Laura revealed she was having a daughter in her self-help book, No One Can Change Your Life But You.

She said: 'Now that I've finished this book, it doesn't end with chapter nine, there's a new chapter in my life – in the form of a girl who is currently growing inside me and it scares the hell out of me. .

Reflecting on impending motherhood, Laura said, “I want to raise my child knowing that she has her own story to write.

“She will be supported and loved. But she is the heroine of her own life, and no one else.'

A-listers including Beyonce, Kate Moss, Poppy Delevingne, Lily James, Jourdan Dunn and Rina Sawayama were all expected to walk the red carpet at the British Fashion Awards.

The event, presented by jewelery brand Pandora, returned to London's iconic venue, the Royal Albert Hall, on Monday evening.
