Awards season is in full swing, and the hottest night in British film and television, aka the BAFTAs, is here once again. Since 1949, each year the awards ceremony has welcomed a crop of stylish attendees dressed to the nines in the most extravagant gowns but also glammed to the high heavens.
While some of our favourite A-listers have their very own glam squads ready to create their red-carpet looks, BAFTA also hosts the exclusive Style Suites each and every year to get attendees looking picture-perfect.
Bouffant updos, glittery eyeliner, statement pouts and even Swarovski crystal freckles (obsessed, obvs) were on the cards this year. We've taken it upon ourselves to invoke a trip down memory lane and recall the very best hair and makeup looks ever to grace the legendary ceremony.
Hello! Fashion shares the best BAFTA beauty looks of all time:
Lily Collins
Emily In Paris actress Lily Collins served Old Hollywood sultry with her trademark strong arches, a focus on lash elongation and a wine-hued statement lip.
Joy Sunday
Wednesday star Joy Sunday went for a statement lash look and a high-shine red lip.
Florence Pugh
Oppenheimer star and beauty experimentalist Florence Pugh didn't let fans down. Bringing her signature against-the-grain charm, she wore her hair in gel-slicked waves, alongside a high-octane smokey eye and a rose-pink lip.
Hoyeon Jung
Hoyeon Jung looked picture-perfect in 2023 in a red lip and super sleek side parting which paired perfectly with her fresh, soft-focus skin.
Margot Robbie
Margot Robbie epitomised elegance with charcoal grey liner and subtle flecks of sparkle around her upper lash line at the 2020 ceremony.
Lupita Nyong'o
Lupita Nyong'o caught our eye in 2018 with her scarlet satin-finish pout and her glittery deep navy liner.

The then-Duchess of Cambridge oozed 1960s sophistication in 2017 with a classic royal bouffant hairstyle and dramatic black eyeliner.

Cate Blanchett
Cate Blanchett looked utterly radiant in 2005 with her blonde curls arranged in a tousled bob and a flush of peach across her cheeks.
