Daisy Ridley turned heads at the Rakuten TV Empire Awards, stepping out in a stylish tuxedo instead of the usual red carpet dress.

The Star Wars actress, 25, looked chic in her form-fitting black suit and white shirt, which she teamed with elegant black heels and delicate earrings.

Her brunette locks were curled around her face as she braved the chill to attend the awards at the Roundhouse in London on Sunday.

Ridley was joined by her Star Wars co-star Mark Hamill. The Luke Skywalker actor attended the ceremony with his wife Marilou York.

But there were also splashes of colour from the likes of Anya Taylor-Joy, who looked stunning in a twinkly mint green dress with a long slit, and Stefanie Martini, who dazzled in gold.

Some of the male stars showed red carpet fashion was not just a female affair, with Martin Freeman leading the pack in a sharp checked jacket.
