Paloma Faith made a style statement as she hit the red carpet at the 2025 Brit Awards at the O2 Arena in London on Saturday night.
The singer, 43, who presented the award for Best Dance Act Award to Charli XCX, cut a chic figure in a black ruffled gown with a statement floppy hat.
Paloma appeared in great spirits as she larked around and flashed a smile for the smile while making her way into the star-studded ceremony.
The mother of two’s gown was belted around her svelte waist as she teamed the look with тιԍнтs and court shoes.
She wore her blonde locks in a loose straight style and opted for a natural but glamorous coat of make-up.

The 2025 BRIT Awards ceremony was hosted by comedian Jack Whitehall, marking his fifth time at the helm of the event, after having previously presented the show in 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021.
The star-studded event took place once again at London’s O2 Arena with the trophy this year designed by the talented Gabriel Moses.
The night featured mᴀssive performances from Ezra Collective and special guest Jorja Smith.
They joined an exciting lineup of acts including Jade Thirlwall, Sabrina Carpenter, Sam Fender, Lola Young, Teddy Swims, and The Last Dinner Party.
Charli XCX was originally set to perform but decided not to despite months of negotiations.
According to a close source, the decision comes as she shifted her focus toward preparing for the Grammy Awards, which took place earlier this month.
The pop singer led the 2025 BRIT Awards nominations with five nods, closely followed by Dua Lipa who had been recognised in four categories.
In the end, Charli’s smash hit album BRAT swept the board and took home all of the five awards she was nominated for.

The British singer, 32, whose No1 album became a cultural phenomenon last summer, took home Best Album, Artist of The Year, Song Of The Year, Best Dance Act and Best Song Writing.
Charli’s incredible sweep mirrored Raye’s own triumph at last year’s ceremony which saw the 27-year-old made history after scooping a record breaking six gongs.
She made history when her No1 album Brat became a cultural phenomenon last summer along with the colour slime green as millions of fans showed their support by posting clips of Charli’s Apple Dance on TikTok.
Dua, 29, who is already the recipient of seven BRITs, went head-to-head against Charli for Song Of The Year with hit Training Season, Artist Of The Year, Pop Act, and Album Of The Year with Radical Optimism.
US superstar Taylor Swift, 35, battled it out with Billie Eilish in the International Artist Of The Year category, which also featured Beyoncé, Sabrina Carpenter, and Chappell Roan, as well as for the International Song Of The Year accolade.
Sabrina landed her first BRIT when she scooped the special Global Success Award, presented by Stranger Things star Millie Bobby Brown, 21.
Thanking her UK fans American singer quipped that a ‘predominantly tea drinking country’ had ‘streamed the s***’ out of her smash hit track Espresso.

However the banger was pipped to the post for Best International Song Of The Year to Chappell Roan for her own catchy tune Good Luck, Babe.
The H๏τ TO GO singer, 27, later went on to beat the likes of Beyoncé and Billie Eilish to win Best International Artist.
The winners of five genre awards – Alternative/Rock Act, Dance Act, Hip Hop/Grime/Rap Act, Pop Act, R&B Act – were determined by a public vote exclusively through WhatsApp for the first time ever.
Sam Fender was announced as the winner for Alternative Rock Act for a second time.
It marks his third BRIT after winning the Rising Star Award (previously Critics’ Choice Award) in 2019 and Alternative Rock Act in 2022.
Accepting the award, he joked: ‘As you can tell I’m a little bit nervous, I’m nowhere near as drunk as last time.’
‘Mᴀssive thanks to the fans, we’ve got the best fans in the world. To everybody at home in Newcastle – love you.
‘Huge thanks to my band. Without them, I’m just a mad person shouting at the walls. Love yous all.’
