The stunning actress attended the premiere of her new film A United Kingdom
A STUNNING Rosamund Pike has taken to the red carpet to launch this year's 60th BFI London film Festival.
The actress donned a glam black and white outfit for the premiere of her latest film, A United Kingdom.
Rosamund, 37, turned heads in the Grecian-style Givenchy couture gown which was split at the side to reveal black tuxedo trousers.
With her head swept back in a bun, the mother-of-two joined her co-star David Oyewolo at the opening event in Leicester Square.
Dressed in a dark blue suit, David, 40, arrived arm in arm with his wife Jessica.

Director Amma Asante posed for photos alongside cast member and Harry Potter alumni Tom Felton.
Fellow cast Games of Thrones actress Charlotte Hope and South African star Terry Pheto also walked the red carpet alongside the ageless Floella Benjamin, 67.
David and Rosamund play husband and wife in the new film set in 1940s Africa, telling the true story of the forbidden love between South African Prince Seretse Khama and bank clerk Ruth Williams.
The African-American, Oxford-educated royal Khama causes international outrage when he marries Williams - a white British worker - in his home country in 1948.
Due to severe opposition, the couple is forced to flee South Africa and live in exile in the UK.
Khama then goes on to become the first elected president of independent Botswana.
