Florence Pugh’s bright orange dress leads charge of colourful outfits at Baftas

Fresh from her appearance at Harris Reed’s London Fashion Week show on Thursday, Pugh wore a gown by French fashion house Nina Ricci, where Reed is creative director.

Actress Danielle Deadwyler was another celebrity wearing a bright outfit. Nominated in the leading actress category at the event for her role in Till, she wore a flowing blue dress with a sparkling green, black and white wrapping around the waist, by Armani Prive couture.

Black Panther star Angela Bassett’s outfit was all about statement sleeves: a lilac gown by American designer Pamella Roland with a low-key halterneck and balloon sleeves.

The Banshees Of Inisherin actor Barry Keoghan was one of the few men taking a fashion risk on the Bafta red carpet, wearing a bright red double-breasted suit, worn with a white shirt and red collar.

Another attendee making a style statement was Eddie Redmayne, who wore a daring black tuxedo-style jumpsuit by Alexander McQueen with no shirt underneath. 

Redmayne shares a stylist with Harry Styles, and has increasingly taken risks on the red carpet.
