Sienna was pictured standing alongside rock legend Sir Rod Stewart and his wife Penny Lancaster, as well as King Charles himself and footballer David Beckham at the King's Foundation Awards, as David was announced as the newest celebrity ambassador for The King's Foundation on 1st June 2024.

For the occasion, she demonstrated perfectly how to nail 2024 colour trends in a gorgeous lilac gown with voluminous shoulders and a cropped sleeve, with subtle nude shoes finishing the look.

Sienna's blonde waves were worn loose and relaxed at her shoulders, while her makeup was typically understated, with a dewy base and slick of bright red lipstick.
