London Fashion Week may have concluded, but the style continued as actresses Simone Ashley and Jodie Turner-Smith were seen heading to the Bentley Torcal launch party in London. The event marked the debut of Bentley's first electric car.
Ashley, known for her role in the Netflix series "Bridgerton," opted for a £1,190 champagne-colored 16Arlington gown featuring a halterneck and an elegant silhouette. She was joined by Turner-Smith, who made a statement in a bold black and red striped coat paired with heeled black leather boots.
The evening's menu was curated by chef Florence Knight, with Billecart-Salmon Le Réserve served. The music for the event was provided by Femi Koleoso, drummer and co-founder of Ezra Collective, and DJ Zezi Ifore.
Ashley recently expressed openness to portraying a Bond Girl in a future film. In an interview with ELLE UK, she stated her interest in action movies and fantasy genres, while also discussing her desire to find a "delicious" TV show to star in. She also shared her hopes for future personal endeavors, including starting a family and finding a supportive partner.
Reflecting on her role as Kate Sharma in "Bridgerton," Ashley described the show as life-changing and noted its far-reaching impact. She indicated her intention to remain with the series until its conclusion, anticipating it will cover the remaining Bridgerton siblings.
Other notable guests at the Bentley event included Jodie Kidd and "Love Island" winner Lorenzo Alessi.
