BAFTA 2022 Film Awards: Celebrities arrive in sensational style at The Royal Albert Hall

The showbiz stars were out in full force on Sunday for one of the most esteemed events in the social calendar: the BAFTA 2022 Film Awards. 

Among those marking the stellar event was Lady Gaga, Emma Watson, Daisy Ridley and Salma Hayek, who made their respective marks on the red carpet at London’s Royal Albert Hall. 

A-lister Gaga, 35, showed off her enviable figure in a forest green plunging gown as she put on a showstopping display for the cameras. 

Harry Potter starlet Emma, 31, was all smiles as she worked the red carpet in a chic dress, which incorporated a feathery, asymmetrical skirt and black top.  

Elsewhere, Salma Hayek, 55, rocked a velvet gown and pulled her brunette tresses into a tight bun, a coiffure which only reinforced her elegance. 

Star Wars sensation Daisy, 29, commanded attention in an off-the-shoulder Vivienne Westwood dress, its bold ruffled skirt emphasising her look. 

Florence, 26, jazzed up a long sleeve mini dress with a pink mesh appendage, which traipsed down her back and onto the floor. 

28-year-old Lucy, who made her professional debut as the young Beatrix Potter in Miss Potter, made a statement in Chanel SS22 Couture gown, which boasted quirky prints and a frilly skirt. 

Italian actress Caitriona Balfe, 42, has been recognised for her role in acclaimed drama Belfast and celebrated the career milestone in a velvet cut-out ensemble, which fell to the floor and featured shoulder pads.    

AJ Odudu also made a phenomenal red carpet appearance for the BAFTA 2022 Film Awards. 

Posing up a storm at London’s Royal Albert Hall, the gorgeous TV presenter, 34, was dressed in a striking gown comprising a mesh top half and stunning sequin bottom.    

Clara Amfo was yet another star who went all out for the Academy’s 75th ceremony, flaunting her figure in a metallic-inspired, sequin dress.

Meanwhile, Best Actress nominee Renate Reinsve cut an angelic figure in a flowy white Louis Vuitton gown, which was embellished with intricate netting. 

Adding a splash of vibrancy to the red carpet shenanigans was Jackie St. Clair, who looked radiant in a figure-hugging yellow dress.

Rebel Wilson dazzled as she graced the red carpet at this year’s BAFTA Film Awards.

The actress, 42, who is hosting this year’s ceremony, showed off her glamorous sense of style in a tiered black mesh Giambattista Valli SS19 Couture dress with blue sequin detail.

Australian star Rebel showed off her slimline figure after her weight loss in recent months as the dress was cinched in at the waist by a black ribbon.    

Stars like Rebel, Ariana and livestream host AJ gave fans a glimpse at their beauty preparations ahead of the BAFTA Film Awards on Sunday evening.

AJ shared a clip of herself getting her hair and makeup done in the Savoy Hotel ahead of the ceremony.  

Speaking to her followers, she said: ‘Getting my wig plucked, getting ready to meet all the stars on the red carpet from 3pm. 

Rebel treated herself to a facial on Saturday before the big night. 

The Australian comedian shared a clip of herself wrapped in a towel during her pampering session before the work begins.

Ariana, who is nominated for Best Supporting Actress for her role in West Side Story, shared a snap of herself indulging in FaceGym’s skincare products on Sunday.

Rebel recently admitted to her nerves and that she worries about being cancelled for her jokes.

She confessed to the Radio Times: ‘Your head is on the chopping block as the host, which is a bit scary. I get very nervous.

‘It’s a very hard time for comedians, because what can you say without being cancelled?’

The showbiz world united to make a statement against Russia’s invasion of Ukraine for the British Academy Film Awards 2022.

Supermodel Naomi Campbell led the stars on the red carpet wearing black, while nominee Benedict Cumberbatch and former Made In Chelsea star Millie Mackintosh wore Ukrainian flag pins as a mark of solidarity.

Prior to the event, BAFTA bosses reportedly advised attendees to ‘dress respectably’ amid fears attention-grabbing dresses and suits would appear distasteful in light of the Ukraine conflict’.

The nominations were announced last month with Dune, The Power Of The Dog and Belfast leading with 11, eight and six respectively.

Denis Villeneuve’s star-studded sci-fi epic landed a slew of technical nods, along with a nod for the top prize for Best Film, while Jane Campion’s dark Western and Kenneth Branagh’s Irish biopic follows close behind with eight and six respectively.

While the Academy once again recognised three women in the Director’s shortlist, this year’s nominations fell short on BAFTA’s vow to improve diversity, with only seven people of colour nominated in contrast to last year’s 12.

It looks set to be a competitive evening in the acting categories, with Lady Gaga, Caitriona Balfe and Benedict Cumberbatch battling it out for the leading honours, alongside newcomers Kodi Smit-McPhee, Ariana DeBose and Adeel Akhtar.

While many of Dune’s nominations came in the technical categories, it’s also landed a nod for Best Film, alongside Belfast, Don’t Look Up, Licorice Pizza and The Power of the Dog.
