Red carpet season is in full swing, and as a fashion editor I love to pore over the fancy frocks and statement looks worn by the big names at star-studded events. One of my favourites for fashion inspiration is the BAFTA awards, and as the annual event is set to take place in London this weekend, I'm looking back at some of the most iconic outfits from previous shows.
Now, this look might be from 2005, but Gillian Anderson's gorgeous gothic ensemble stopped me in my tracks. The actress looked incredible in a floor-length, shimmery, silver slip dress that was worn under a sheer, black lace overlay, and the combination of glossy colour and moody embellished tulle worked beautifully back then, but with sheer overlays and lace trims both trends for the months ahead, it still feels wearable in 2026. It's a look that's stood the test of time.
