Rosie Huntington-Whiteley was named Style Icon at the Elle Style Awards last night (13.02.12).
The ‘Transformers: Dark of the Moon’ actress looked fabulous at the show wearing an Antonio Berardi dress, Sergio Rossi shoes, Irene Neuwirth earrings, and an Edie Parker clutch.
The 24-year-old beauty – currently dating Jason Statham – was presented with her award by Cuba Gooding Jr. at the event, held at the Savoy Hotel in London.
Other guests included Florence + the Machine singer Florence Welch, who took home the Best Music Act award, Poppy Delevigne, supermodel Naomi Campbell, and designers Julien Macdonald, Christopher Bailey and Christopher Kane.
Actress Christina Ricci presented designer Jonathan Saunders with his award for British Designer of the Year, while former ‘The X Files’ star Gillian Anderson gave Jordan Askill Jewellery Designer of the Year.
The evening’s host Alexa Chung and model David Gandy both opted for smart grey suits for the event, while ‘Mad Men’ star Christina Hendricks attended the bash in a bold purple dress with black and red detailing.
She told the Daily Telegraph newspaper: ”I just wear things that I fall in love with and I think people have too many rules about what people should wear on the red carpet.”
Model Tali Lennox caused a stir when she turned on the red carpet and the sheer fabric of her Julien Macdonald dress showed off a lot more of her nude underwear than intended.
Earlier she had tweeted her excitement about wearing the dress, writing: ”The dress has arrived for Elle Style Awards! It is a DREAM. Julian MacDonald is a bloody master mind. See you tonight @ELLEUK(sic)”
Other winners included Jessica Chastain, who was named as the Next Future Icon and Isabeli Fontana who was named Best Model.
