Outlander star Caitríona Balfe has been lighting up the red carpet with some show-stopping looks in recent weeks.
From her scarlet red Saint Laurent gown at this year's SAG Awards, where she was nominated for 'Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Supporting Role' for her role as Ma in Kenneth Branagh's Belfast, to her cream dress from Irish designer Simone Rocha at the Hollywood Critics Association Awards, where she was nominated for 'Best Supporting Actress' for the same role, Balfe has managed to stand out from the crowd at every turn.
Continuing her style streak, the BAFTA-winning actress turned out another outstanding look while attending the Virtuosos Award Ceremony during the 2022 Santa Barbara International Film Festival at The Arlington Theatre.
The Virtuosos Award is given to "up-and-coming" actors for achieving a breakthrough performance. This year's recipients included Caitríona Balfe (Belfast), Ciarán Hinds (Belfast) Ariana DeBose (West Side Story), Alana Haim (Licorice Pizza), Emilia Jones (CODA), Troy Kotsur (CODA), Simon Rex (Red Rocket), and Saniyya Sidney (King Richard).
Styled as always by the incredible Karla Welch, the actress wore a dress from the Pre-Fall 2022 'Abstract Zero' collection from Del Core - a fashion house founded in Milan by Daniel Del Core.
According to the designer, the floor-length dress - which features a high collar, leafy print and slim rope belt - is a "solid note of chartreuse, trembling with a sprouting of mushrooms".
Welch styled the look with some silver drop earrings, a silver bracelet and a pair of black Christian Louboutin heels with bow detailing and ankle straps.
Hair stylist Gareth Bromell gave Balfe's hair some natural texture and waves with "a hint of 40s" style which matched her make-up perfectly. Applied by the talented Mary Wiles, the actress stole the show with a bold red lip (Savage Rose from Charlotte Tilbury) which worked to enhance her lime green dress.
Balfe joined a long list of celebrities who have recently used their red carpet appearances to highlight the plight of Ukraine by adding a blue and yellow ribbon to her dress.
