Keira Knightley turned heads as she attended a dinner in London to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the luxury fashion brand Erdem.
The actress, 40, looked phenomenal in a nude floral-embroidered gown, posing up a storm for cameras at the event hosted by founder Erdem Moralioglu and Ruth Rogers.
The chic gown featured a high frilly lace neckline, a sleeveless design, a fitted bodice, and an intricate green floral embroidery.
Keira completed the look with gold ballet flats and a mini white handbag with a gold-toned handle.
She appeared in great spirits as she joined Erdem Moralioglu, Rashida Jones and Ruth Rogers for a sweet snap during the dinner.
Keira’s appearance at the event comes after she and her co-star Ben Whishaw, 45, appeared emotional in a first look at what’s to come in the highly-anticipated second series of Netflix spy thriller Black Doves.

The actors were seen on set in London’s Trafalgar Square earlier this month as they shot a scene that saw them both in a heartfelt embrace.
Keira and Ben could be seen looking tense during the scenes, which saw them standing beside the iconic landmark.
They were out filming in the rainy capital, with Keira wrapping up in a long trench coat for the scene, which will hit screens during its second series.
The first season of Black Doves became one of Netflix’s most talked-about UK shows – praised for its sleek visuals, twisty espionage plot and stand-out performances from its leading stars.
The series, which also stars Happy Valley actress Sarah Lancashire, amassed 60million views in a week when it was released in December 2024.
Keira will reprise her role as Helen Webb, a Conservative politician’s wife who leads a double life as a secret agent, in the second series.
Ben will be back as Sam Young, a skilled assassin, friend and former trainee of Webb, who returned to London to help investigate the murder of her lover Jason Davies.
Following the murder, the duo battles to protect Helen after she learns her identity as a ‘Black Dove’ in danger after Jason is mysteriously killed.

A second series was confirmed to be in the works back in December 2024, with a clip of Keira and Ben celebrating the release of its successful first season.
The official X account for Netflix posted a 30-second clip of Keira as her character Helen and Ben’s Sam Young together at a bar.
In the clip, Keira approached Ben and whispered ‘Merry Christmas’ in his ear, to which he replied ‘Hello darling’ as the two shared a hug.
Breaking the fourth wall, Keira raised her champagne glass and said towards the camera: ‘Here’s to Black Doves season one,’ to which Ben replied: ‘Don’t forget season two, darling.’
The pair then retrieved two golden bullets from little red envelopes and simultaneously dropped them in their champagne glasses before the title screen appeared, and the clip ended.
Its debut series, which first hit screens in 2024, was given a perfect 100 per cent score on Rotten Tomatoes from fans just one day after its launch.
Set in London in December, the thriller follows Keira’s character Helen as an agent passing on secrets she’s managed to uncover from her politician husband (Andrew Buchan) to the Black Doves organisation.
Helen has been giving the firm – headed up by the enigmatic Reed (Sarah Lancashire) – political information for 10 years, but her position is compromised after the mother-of-two’s secret lover Jason (Andrew Koji) is assassinated.
The series was so popular that it even made it to Kensington Palace.
Whilst handing out Christmas presents to children and families at a party for 1st Battalion Mercian Regiment in Wiltshire, Prince William revealed he and Princess Catherine have been sitting down to watch Black Doves.
There is no release date for Black Doves season two just yet, with filming still taking place across London.
Black Doves series one is available to stream on Netflix.
