Helen Flanagan has put on an elegant display when she attended the QIPCO British Champions Day at Ascot on Sunday.
The 33-year-old former soap star left her Halloween costumes at home, and changed to formal attire with sparkly heels and designer handbag.
It’s a “little black dress” from Karen Millen but with a modern twist — with white pleated cape added on both sleeves.

Styling it with a low bun and glamorous makeup, Helen wore the tailored dress with a pair of bejewelled stiletto heel.
Sharing on Instagram, she is seen posing for cameras and giving a short catwalk as she walks into the venue.
“Love this take on a classic little black dress with the addition of the white pleated cape sleeves, the perfect mix of elegance and drama,” she wrote. “Super comfortable and a great alternative to sequin and sparkle for upcoming parties and festivities!
“Felt so amazing in this dress!”
To complete her look, she takes a red patent Lady Dior bag and matches the accessory with a pair of gold tone earrings, which Helen says: “I’m going to wear the earrings all the time, to dress up and dress down.”
At the event, she met EastEnders star Kara Tointon and they posed for a picture together.
