Diana Vickers exuded class in a glamorous black gown as she posed up a storm on the red carpet of The Stage Debut Awards, where she was among the presenters on Sunday.
The singer, 33, was a vision in the show-stopping strapless garment, which perfectly enhanced her slender neck and lithe figure.
The X Factor sensation - who was a semifinalist on the signing contest in 2008 - oozed class, twirling around for a series of striking shots.
She kept any jewellery choice to the minimum except for a dazzling gold choker with also dainty earrings.
The music star joined the likes Stephen Mangan, Pearl Mackie, Diana Vickers, and Alfred Enoch as presenters for the glitzy award night.
The 12 winners of The Stage Debut Awards 2024, in partnership with ATG Entertainment, were revealed at a glittering London ceremony at 8 Northumberland Avenue.
Diane is currently starring in her new play, I Wish You Well - inspired by Hollywood star Gwyneth Paltrow.
The former X Factor contestant stars as the Goop founder in a musical which charts the 51-year-old's remarkable court battle following a skiing accident in 2016.
The Seven star was sued by retired optometrist Terry Sanderson for $300,000 after the pair collided on the slopes in Utah, but the megastar countersued for $1 and the court ruled in her favour last year.
The annual event was hosted by drag artist, performer and singer Divina De Campo in front of an audience of some of British theatre's most influential figures in celebration of the brightest emerging talents who made their mark both on and off stage.
This year 49 nominees across eight categories were in the spotlight, representing performers, composers, designers, writers, lyricists and directors whose work premiered on stages across the UK in the previous year.
Scooping the Best West End Debut Performer award for his enormously compelling and vocally accomplished performance as Gabe in Next To Normal at Wyndham's Theatre was Olivier Award nominee Jack Wolfe.
As the only category decided by public vote – previous winners included Rose Ayling-Ellis (2023) and Jodie Comer (2022) – Wolfe emerged as the people's West End favourite from a strong shortlist that included Will Close for Dear England; Billy Crudup in Harry Clarke; Toheeb Jimoh in Player Kings; Francesca Amewudah-Rivers in Romeo and Juliet; Ed Larkin in The Little Big Things; Grace Hodgett Young in Sunset Boulevard and Louis McCartney in Stranger Things: The First Shadow.
Such was the level of talent that Best Performer in a Play was awarded to both Ellie-May Sheridan for a scene-stealing turn in London Tide at the National Theatre and Louis McCartney, who was recognised for his menacingly mercurial performance in Stranger Things: The First Shadow at the Phoenix Theatre.
Also, the Best Performer in a Musical award was shared between Jeevan Braich for his vocal prowess and impressive roller skating skills in Starlight Express at the Troubadour Wembley Park Theatre and Grace Hodgett Young who won the award for her impressive performance in Jamie Lloyd's hit revival Sunset Boulevard at the Savoy Theatre.
More awards on the night recognising talent behind the scenes included Best Creative West End Debut, which was given to Bush Theatre's associate artistic director Daniel Bailey for his dynamic and sensitively directed production of Tyrell Williams' Red Pitch.
This year's directing accolade went to Sophie Drake who was honoured with the Best Director award for The Bleeding Tree at Southwark Playhouse Borough.
The judges said Drake 'infused finesse into all aspects of this dark, grisly anti-fairytale'.
For the first time, all nominees in this category were women, and the award was presented by the acclaimed BAFTA nominated director and Bush Theatre's artistic director Lynette Linton.
The unforgettable and now iconic video design for Jamie Lloyd's Sunset Boulevard at the Savoy Theatre was recognised in the Best Designer award, which Nathan Amzi and Joe Ransom took home.
And Jack Godfrey won the Best Composer, Lyricist, or Book Writer award for his all-round talents bringing 42 Balloons at The Lowry, Salford, a charming new musical success story, to life.
