Emma Raducanu cut an elegant figure as she stepped out in a glimmering white ensemble for a London Fashion Week event tonight.
The tennis sensation, 18, made sporting history by winning the US Open earlier this month - the first British woman to win a major title for 44 years since Virginia Wade lifted the Wimbledon trophy in 1977. She is also the first qualifier in history to lift a grand slam.
The teenager has been heralded as a 'sponsor's dream', and is on course to become the highest earning female sports star of all time. It was also reported that she laid the groundwork for her potential earnings aged 17, registering Harbour 6 Limited to manage her finances.
The 18-year-old beamed as she walked the black carpet at the intimate dinner and party hosted by British Vogue and Tiffany & Co. to celebrate Fashion and Film at The Londoner Hotel this evening.
She looked chic in a halterneck sequin crop-top which she paired with a trendy white pleated midi skirt for the occasion.

Meanwhile the teen swept her hair into a bun, opting to wear a collection of glittering jewellery for the event.
Her return home comes after a whirlwind week following her incredible triumph in New York.
In a sweet photoshoot last week, Ian Raducanu lifted her arm victoriously aloft and then hugged his 18-year-old daughter - but her mother Renee did not come out to pose with the sports superstar.
Emma told reporters outside her home: 'It's a great feeling to be home. I've been away for seven weeks so it's nice to be back. It was nice [to hug her parents]. Nice to see them again.'

The smiling tennis star also said she was looking forward to relaxing but hasn't thought about any parties or reunions with friends. She said: 'I haven't thought of anything [going forward]. I'm just enjoying it and relaxing and recovering. We will make some plans.'
Her proud father said he was relieved to have her home and happily hugged Emma as they posed for photographers outside the family property. Her mother was also thought to have been at home, although she wasn't seen in photos.
Emma arrived in a black Range Rover, which was followed by another filled with suited security guards.
The reunion comes after it emerged Emma trademarked her name within hours of her US Open win in her first steps to becoming the 'first billion-dollar sports woman'. UK-based lawyer Anthony Brierley applied to safeguard the words 'Emma Raducanu', 'Emma' and 'Raducanu' shortly after the 18-year-old's victory, reports The Sun.

Emma, whose parents both work in the City of London as currency market traders, has admitted to still being on 'cloud nine' after her stunning victory and plans a few days of rest before she is back playing tennis again.
However, she also shared her desire to get back on the court and is expected to appear at BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells next month.
She said: 'I have a few days' rest and recovery (coming up), I think needed after the last seven weeks but then I am straight back to training and hungry to get better and come back out and play some more tournaments.'
The 18-year-old defeated Leylah Fernandez 6-4 6-3 at Arthur Ashe Stadium on Saturday to become Great Britain's first female grand slam winner in 44 years.
