Derry Girls star Nicola Coughlan named one of the world’s 12 Best Dressed Women of 2021

Derry Girls star Nicola Coughlan has been named one of the world’s 12 Best Dressed Women of 2021 by American Vogue.

The 34-year-old Galway gal joins the esteemed ranks of Kate Moss, Lady Gaga, Zendaya, Dua Lipa and Rihanna.

The Irish star shot to fame playing schoolgirl Clare Devlin in three seasons of Derry Girls before gaining worldwide attention as Lady Penelope Featherington in Bridgerton.

The magazine said: “Nicola Coughlan stole our hearts somewhere between Bridgerton season one and her British Vogue In the Bag video, during which she delivered the inimitable line: ‘You’ve got to walk into the club purse first’.

“The always-cheerful star has carved out herself a niche in whimsical dresses from London’s finest, from Simone Rocha to Molly Goddard (and yes she will wear a cardi with her tumbling tulle, thank you very much).

The American fashion bible carries three photos of the Irish actress which impressed them.

In one she is wearing Valentino at the TV BAFTAs on 6 June.

In another she is adorned in Simone Rocha at the British Vogue X Tiffany & Co. Fashion and Film Dinner on 20 September.

She is also seen wearing Balenciaga at the London premiere of House of Gucci on 9 November.
