There's no better loved fashion trend in Hollywood than that of Old Hollywood glamor.

Simone Ashley, a rising star on the scene since her fan-favorite roles on Netflix's Bridgerton and Sex Education, brought the drama and flair associated with that golden era to a Tiffany & Co. gala held in London yesterday.

Ashley and her stylist, Rebecca Corbin-Murray, teamed up to pull a head-to-toe pale pink look for the event. The monochrome look consisted of a body-hugging dress with criss-crossing halter straps and a built-in corset from London-based label 16Arlington. Over the dress, she wore a feather-trim coat that hung off her shoulders. She further accessorized with strappy nude heels adorned with a glittering bow from Aquazzura plus diamond chandelier earrings and rings from Tiffany.

Ashley's stylish red-carpet appearances have garnered more and more buzz since she debuted as Kate Sharma on Bridgerton, in which she starred opposite Jonathan Bailey's Anthony Bridgerton.

Back in March, the star opened up to BAZAAR.com about joining the cast of Netflix's beloved Regency-era dramedy.

"With most characters, there are factors that you relate to. Kate was one that I definitely empathized with and was rooting for," she said. "It was so much fun [joining the cast]. I mean, it was mad! It was wild! It was crazy! I was so grateful, first and foremost, just to sink my teeth into the amazing material and the love story. But I think that it's a gift to an actor to be presented with such a great character journey."
