Carol Vorderman stunned fans in not one but two glamorous gowns at this year's annual Pride of Britain Awards. The star-studded ceremony, which aired on ITV last night, pays tribute to those who have shown courageous acts of bravery in the face of adversity.
Former Countdown star Carol took to the red carpet ahead of hosting the event in a jaw-dropping navy gown from luxury designer Marchesta Notte. Her dark blue dress featured lace edging and ruffled tiers with subtle sheer polka dot lacing, pulling in her waist with a silk waistband, which she pinned a poppy to. The dress is currently on sale on The Outnet, reduced from £1,218 to £426. Carol upped the glam ante with smokey eye make-up and her hair tousled. Carol was styled by stylist to the stars Marcella Martinelli, known as The Style Whisperer, who is also the woman behind looks for Holly Willoughby, Peaky Blinders actress Helen McCrory and Amanda Holden.

She complemented the glitz of the gown with smokey eye make-up and her light brown hair loosely waved.
