The pandemic might have taken award shows and fashion weeks online, but the glamour that is present at these events have not dimmed down even a bit.
The BAFTA Awards 2021 were no different. The attendees (both in-person and virtual) brought their best face forward and looked glamorous as always. None of them skimped on getting decked out for the show, sharing their beauty looks on social media, where we have been stalking them since the looks started to come out. It is safe to say that we instantly had some faves and wanted to obsess over them a bit longer. Check out our top picks from the glitzy night, below...
01. Priyanka Chopra Jonas

Our very own PeeCee, who has been quarantining in London for a while, got to actually walk the carpet and boy did she slay! The stunner turned heads with her risque outfits, a bold red lip and 2021’s hottest hairstyle, the bubble ponytail. Gold, shimmery lids were paired with a matte complexion to match the rich colours of her ensemble and she looked absolutely gorgeous!
02. Gugu Mbatha-Raw

The incredibly talented Ms Gugu Mbatha-Raw is always a treat to spot on the red carpet. She wore her signature bold lips and sheer makeup look combo. With a touch of old Hollywood in her wavy mane, the actress looked so lovely and classy.
03. Phoebe Dynevor

We knew this Bridgerton star was going places as soon as we spotted her in the first frame of the show! The lovely Phoebe flaunted her statement red mane with a soft glam makeup look. The eyes were kept light and with a touch of liner on the outer corner. So lovely!
04. Maria Bakalova

Bulgarian beaut Maria Bakalova managed to hold her own with some of the biggest comedians in Hollywood, and she can serve looks like an absolute pro as well. We love the glossy lavender and deep orange details in her makeup look. Combined with slick back hair, she was an absolute standout of the night for us.
05. Cynthia Erivo

Cynthia Erivo is no stranger to award shows. For the BAFTAs, the actress showed up with shimmery lids, envious glowy skin, nude glossy pout and a platinum blonde buzz cut, which was a whole mood on the carpet!
