Sienna Miller braves heatwave in thick fur coat as she leads stars at Serpentine Summer Party

Sienna Miller braved the London heatwave in a thick fur coat at the star-studded Serpentine Summer Party.

The actress, best known for the films Alfie and American Sniper, arrived at the annual gallery fundraiser on Tuesday wearing a silky Olivia von Halle dress with a green coat lined with fur as the capital faced temperatures of up to 34 degrees.

Meanwhile Lights singer Ellie Goulding wore a black co-ord with a bodice-like top, sheer trousers and a Tyler Ellis clutch, with actress Celia Imrie wearing a white ankle-length gown with dramatic feathered sleeves and a Tyler Ellis pearl clutch.

Other stars attending the event amid the heatwave included Saltburn star Richard E Grant, who smiled for photographs in a summery white suit and black belt.

Pitch Perfect actress Rebel Wilson also attended the fundraising event wearing a Louis Vuitton monogrammed black silk shirt dress and smiled for photographs alongside her wife, fashion designer Ramona Agruma, who attended wearing a white floral summer dress.

The fundraiser, held at the Serpentine Galleries in Kensington Gardens, aims to bring together Serpentine supporters alongside leading figures from art, culture, fashion, architecture, business and technology.

For the first time since the event began in 2000, one artist co-hosted the summer party with Australian actress Cate Blanchett chosen for the role.

Love Island presenter Maya Jama attended the event wearing a strapless floor-length David Koma dress from the brand’s unreleased RE27 collection, while actress Salma Hayek wore a light purple gown.

Miller’s outing comes just weeks after she welcomed her third child with her partner, actor and model Oli Green.

She disclosed the news in an interview with E! News, telling the website: “It’s happened. I have a tiny baby next door.

“It feels like stringing sentences together is a bit challenging. I’m on very little sleep but I’m madly in love with my baby.”

The British actress has a teenage daughter, Marlowe, from a previous relationship, and a second daughter with her current partner Green.

She did not reveal the gender of her third child.
