Gorgeous girls: Sabrina Dhowre Elba, 37, proved on Thursday that less is more when she donned a draped black dress at the BFI Luminous Gala – alongside her mother Maryam Egal
The number featured a long sleeved design with ruffles as it fell to the floor – with a dropped neckline exposing a velvet bustier underneath.
Sabrina enhanced the look with a statement chunky pearl choker that covered her entire neck, and added a small dangling earring to finish it off.
The model and activist kept her ultra-dark locks swept back in a low bun while keeping all the focus on her ensemble.
