Radio presenter AJ Odudu, 33, was among the best dressed of the early arrivals, dressed in a feathered red gown, paired with dramatic gold jewellery and stilettos.

Meanwhile, Killing Eve star Jodie Comer, 28, looked effortlessly elegant in a blue jumpsuit - with handy pockets - and peep-toe heels.

Her blonde hair had a 'wet dry' look while she wore light pink nails, simple jewellery, nude lipstick and a slight smokey eye. Jodie is up for the Leading Actress gong tonight.

Billie Piper, 38, went all out in a black dress with a huge pink bow, spanning from her shoulder to her opposite hip and trailing onto the floor.

Ellie, 28, contrasted her dramatic purple locks with a pink star-patterned frock, while sister Izzi, 26, went all out in a floor-length silver sequinned dress.

Ellie posted about her "purple reign" hair transformation on Instagram yesterday, writing: "Violet Beauregarde eat your heart out - new hair thanks to @tombhair".
