Frankie Bridge was amongst the stars at the 2023 TV BAFTAs on Sunday, stepping out onto the red carpet at London's Royal Festival Hall in a head-turning backless ballgown.

The Loose Women panellist, 34, looked utterly mesmerising as she stepped into the spotlight wearing a daring midnight-hued dress that carved a dramatic silhouette. Watch as she struts towards the camera in a behind-the-scenes peek before she hits the red carpet…

Frankie's floor-length gown was complete with elegant long sleeves, a mock neckline and a daring thigh-split which revealed her towering platform heels from Jimmy Choo. 

The wife of Wayne Bridge styled her hair in a sleek low bun, channelling timeless Hollywood glamour as she enhanced her look with feline eyeliner and a honey-hued rouge.

The most surprising element of Frankie's all-black ensemble, however, was her unexpected hair transformation. The TV star, normally a brunette, levelled up her look with a scene-stealing metallic copper hair colour.

Frankie opted for a daring backless dress

It's not the first time Frankie has put together a showstopping ensemble. Last summer, the star was a vision of beauty at ITV's Summer Party. Donning a classic black tube dress from Solace London, Frankie's dress was complete with a plunging sweetheart neckline, invisible back zip and a sleek tapered skirt.

Solace London's aptly named 'Audrey' gown is chic, strapless and figure-hugging, AKA a Hollywood dream. Cut from stretch crepe with a sculpted neckline and back slit, the Loose Women star channelled Audrey Hepburn's timeless glamour in her versatile frock. 

From Hollywood royalty like Kate Winslet to Strictly stars Claudia Winkleman and Motsi Mabuse, Frankie was joined at the glittering ceremony by several A-Listers. 

The red carpet provided many standout fashion moments, with nominees and presenters alike pulling out all the stops for the biggest night in television. Take a look at some of the best fashion moments below…
