Nicola Coughlan Is a Blushing Bride at Bridgerton Red Carpet in London
Nicola Coughlan's latest look is will certainly be the talk of the Ton.
In fact, dearest readers, the Bridgerton actress made heads turn in a perfectly pink ensemble while attending a special screening of the Netflix show's third season, part two release.
For the June 12 event at London's Odeon Luxe Leicester Square, Nicola looked like a blushing bride with her sparkly rose-colored Rodarte gown. The body-hugging, strapless design featured a petal-shaped neckline with ruffled sleeves draped off the shoulders and an explosion of pearls and iridescent pink sequins.
She brought the drama with her maroon velvet opera-length gloves (where she placed a ceasefire pin) and blush-colored bridal veil that enveloped the red carpet.
And in true Nicola fashion, no detail went unnoticed.
After all, the 37-year-old's wedding-inspired look seemingly paid homage to her Bridgerton character Penelope Featherington, who is expected to get married with Colin Bridgerton (played by Luke Newton) during the final four episodes of season three.
But before fans think Penelope and Colin will live happily ever after, there's going to be some major plot twists.
"It's really easy to think, 'Oh, they've confessed their love for each other and they're going to live happily ever after,'" Luke recently told E! News, "but actually, the way it's written—it'll take you every which way."
His onscreen sister Claudia Jessie, who plays Eloise Bridgerton, echoed similar sentiments.
"We have to remember that it's friends, which can be seen as part one, to lovers—part two," she teased to E!. "If you catch what I'm saying."
But if there's one thing fans can expect from season three as a whole? It's nothing short of sexy.
"I specifically asked for certain lines and moments to be included," Nicola told Stylist in a recent interview, per People. "There's one scene where I'm very naked on camera, and that was my idea, my choice."
The Derry Girls star wasn't afraid to ruffle some feathers.
"It just felt like the biggest 'f--k you' to all the conversation surrounding my body," she said. "It was amazingly empowering. I felt beautiful in the moment, and I thought: 'When I'm 80, I want to look back on this and remember how f--king hot I looked!'"
