Demi Moore opted for maximalism with a McQueen multi-coloured gown while other celebrities kept it simple in pared-back ensembles at the Baftas in central London.

Hosted by David Tennant, the 78th British Film and TV Awards sees Hollywood A-listers descend on Royal Festival Hall for an evening of celebration.

While many stars reserve their most daring looks for the Oscars (taking place on the first weekend of March), the Baftas showcases plenty of fashion drama, ever since the 1950s.

The 2025 ceremony was certainly no exception. Here are some of the best looks from the event…

Demi Moore, 62, wore a custom McQueen (as of 2022, formerly Alexander McQueen) glittering stain-glass gown with a matching embroidered clutch.
