16Arlington’s latest collection was party girl personified, so who better to take her place on the FROW at the show than woman of the hour Simone Ashley? The Bridgerton star, who has formed a close relationship with the brand, opted for some sartorial sass as she graced the scene in checks.
Effortlessly fusing office-chic with sixties flair, the 27-year-old slipped into a charcoal grey, chequered number featuring a high neckline, barely-there sleeves and a mini silhouette. She completed her aesthetic by stepping out in some black leather knee-high boots and braced the February chill in a splendid ebony ostrich feather coat.
