The Bridgerton star had all eyes on her at the Barbie premiere.

Bridgerverse fan favorite Nicola Coughlan stole the spotlight at the European Barbie premiere held in London's Leicester Square on Wednesday, July 12. At the event, the 36-year-old Irish actress donned a custom-made TENCEL X Wiederhoeft square-neck dress in silver satin with glass bead embellishments, stunning the guests and public with her phenomenal look.

Nicola's classic waves, smokey eye makeup, silver shoes, long sparkling earrings, dramatic neckline, and fitted sleeves, also embroidered with crystals, added to the old Hollywood vibe that Bridgerton fans know all too well from the glow-up first looks of her character, Penelope Featherington, from the Bridgerton Season 3 sneak pics.

Fans are excited for the transformation Coughlan's character is about to undergo in the new season of Netflix's flagship series, and it looks like the actress is more than comfortable in this glamorous style.

'This dress and hair is such a perfect mix of Barbie and the recent Tudum pictures of Penelope and I can't help but think it was deliberate, hence the hair color too,' a fan commented on Nicola's look.

Many fans appreciated how Coughlan changed her hair color to Bridgerton-inspired ginger to emphasize the mix of Barbie and Penelope. On this pink carpet, she looks like the romantic heroine she is set to be in the Netflix show and doesn't blend in with other Barbie actresses. What a brilliant job by the actress' stylist and the entire image creation team!

Bridgerton's fan base was happy to learn that Coughlan has joined the star-studded cast of Greta Gerwig's highly anticipated project as diplomat Barbie. The movie, set to premiere in US theaters on July 21, stars Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling as Barbie and Ken, who leave the perfect Barbie Land for the real world in search of happiness and self-discovery.

Although Nicola's role in Gerwig's film is quite small, fans are excited to catch up with the beloved actress in anticipation of Bridgerton Season 3. And her stunning Barbie premiere look is sure to whet their appetite for Penelope and Colin Bridgerton's romantic story.
