The stunning Michelle Dockery is whom many may refer to as a quiet style icon. The star of Downton Abbey does not have social media; so she doesn't have a place to display outfit pictures, but the actress always looks chic and does love fashion shows. The actress, who married Jasper Waller-Bridge last year, went to two very high-end presentations at London Fashion Week this month.

Michelle, who plays the iconic Lady Mary Crawley in the ITV series, headed to royally-loved Emilia Wickstead's show and dazzled onlookers in a beautiful burgundy trench coat by the desiger.The 42-year-old teamed the standout style with a simple outfit underneath, as well as strappy sandals, and let the coat do all the talking - after all, burgundy is this season's hottest, most sought-after shade, and what's more, it's everywhere right now.

Since then, the £3,689 jacket has become a fast-selling item on the Emilia Wickstead website and what's more, three sizes have already sold out since the Anatomy of a Scandal actress wore it.

We've found a wonderful high street lookalike from Anthropologie which looks hugely similar. It has the same high shine finish and rich oxblood tone, but costs a much more purse-friendly £148.00.

The raven-haired beauty also went to the JW Anderson show at Old Billingsgate. 

Looking uber stylish as she posed with actors Joe Alwyn and Antonia Thomas, she sported an apple-green double-breasted blazer and matching wide-leg trousers.

Michelle's tribute

On Friday, it was revealed that Michelle's Downton Abbey co-star Dame Maggie Smith had passed away in hospital. Her sons Chris Larkin and Toby Stephens announced the news and the tributes poured in from all that had worked with the acting legend.

Michelle played Maggie's character of Lady Violet Crawley's grandaughter in Downton and said in a statement provided to Deadline: "There was no one quite like Maggie. I feel tremendously lucky to have known such a maverick. She will be deeply missed and my thoughts are with her family."
