Philippa Dunne just showed off her wild side with an animal print dress by one of Kate Middleton's favourite British brands
At this time of year, it can feel like there are an endless number of red carpet events happening, and there have been many looks that I have loved along the way. But for me, one of the very best was an outfit worn by Amandaland actress Philippa Dunne, while at the BAFTA Nominee party at the end of last monthThe star stood out from the crowd while at the event in London, wearing a beautiful animal print maxi dress by British clothing brand RIXO, and it's a piece that I haven't stopped thinking about since I first saw it. The long sleeves and empire line have a lovely vintage feel, but the bold, antelope spots bring a modern spin that really wows, so it's a piece that will work for a wide range of events without any risk of it dating.RIXO is a brand loved by many big names, including Kate Middleton, Holly Willoughby and Cat Deeley, and this particular dress is up there with the best from the A-lister-approved label. You can find it along with some similar leopard-covered buys below.
