Amanda Holden ensured all eyes were on her as she arrived at the British Fashion Awards at the Royal Albert Hall in London on Monday with her daughter Lexi.

The Britain’s Got Talent judge, 52, hit the red carpet in a black semi-sheer minidress with corset detailing and a puffed out skirt.

Her ample cleavage and toned legs were on full display in the lace number that boasted a dramatically long train that flowed behind her.

Amanda added several inches of extra height to her frame with a pair of towering black platform high heels.

She kept her jewellery simple to allow her outfit to take centre stage, opting for several chunky silver rings.

The TV personality matched with her 17-year-old daughter Lexi, who also donned a black lace gown.

Her striking dress featured long sleeves and a high neckline, with a daringly high slit to show off her long legs.

Her gown also had a side cutout to show off her toned midriff and was encrusted in blue sequinned flowers for a pop of colour and sparkle.

Like her mother, Lexi also sported a pair of sky-high black patent leather high heels to boost her already impressive height.

Earlier this year, Amanda revealed she has banned Lexi from wearing skimpy outfits, but sometimes steals them for herself.

She admitted she confiscates some of the clothes to wear, telling The Mirror: ‘There’s this sequinned… I wouldn’t even call it a bikini top.

‘My daughter’s 16! “No, you’re not wearing that to Reading Festival, but Mummy can have it”, so Mummy’s got it, and waiting for a moment to wear it.

‘It just about covers the bits up top that you would expect it to cover, but it was definitely not for my daughter.’

The mother and daughter went to the British Fashion Awards last year together as well, as Lexi follows in her mother’s showbusiness footsteps.

In March 2022, Amanda announced her eldest daughter has signed with Storm modelling agency.

Discussing Lexi’s next steps a year on, Amanda exclusively told MailOnline: ‘She’s been taken on by Storm. She’s 17 but I think when she’s 18 we’ll start looking for her to be in that field. At the minute they are working on her Lookbook.’

When asked about her and Lexi’s recent red carpet appearances, Amanda admitted: ‘I’m very mindful of what things we go to.

‘We went to the Fashion Awards which was really exciting. So yeah, I want to take her to the right things, the relevant things. She’s interested in the fashion side of things.’

A-listers such as Kate Moss, Amal Clooney and Gwyneth Paltrow walked the red carpet at the British Fashion Awards 2023.

The event, presented by jewellery brand Pandora returned to the iconic London venue, the Royal Albert Hall on Monday evening.

The evening, hosted by British broadcaster Maya Jama and musical artist Kojey Radical, celebrated 16 awards. TFA nominees and winners are voted for by an international judging panel made up of over 1000 industry experts.
