She usually manages to upstage every fashion wannabe within her vicinity when she steps out in her own designs.

But tonight Victoria Beckham had to pull out all the stops as she rubbed shoulders with the hottest young fashionistas at the annual British Fashion Awards.

And the 37-year-old star certainly commanded attention as she arrived for the ceremony wearing a gothic black gown.

From one extreme to the other: While Victoria Beckham opted for a black gown for the British Fashion Awards, Kelly Brook looked angelic in a pretty white number

While Victoria opted for dark and brooding for the British Fashion Awards, model Kelly Brook went for the opposite end of the spectrum in an angelic one-shouldered white dress, which featured a sexy thigh-high split.

The 32-year-old star teamed the dress with a pretty gold belt and a pair of animal-print heels as she posed for photographers.

Meanwhile, mother-of-four Victoria paired her dress with a scraped back bun, and kept her make-up simple with a smoky eye and nude lips.

Glamorous: The gown featured a low back and showed off Victoria's slender figure

The simple design featured a high neck, low back and long train, leaving Victoria's shoes hidden from sight.

And there was no sign of any baby weight as Victoria, who gave birth to little Harper in July, posed for photographers at the highly-anticipated event.

It has been a busy few days for the former Spice Girl, who jetted in from Los Angeles yesterday with baby daughter Harper.

But there was no signs of jetlag as Victoria smouldered for the cameras at the event.

Her husband David, meanwhile, is in Jakarta with his football team LA Galaxy where they will be playing an exhibition game on November 30 against an Indonesian all-star team as part of their Asia Tour.

Another WAG showing off her post-baby figure was Abbey Crouch, who wore a form-fitting suede studded dress for the occasion.

Also at the awards, held at London's exclusive Savoy Hotel, were fashion stars including Marc Jacobs and Annie Lennox's daughter Tali, who shone in a pretty gold gown.

Alexa Chung wore a cute silver and white number, while Poppy Delevingne opted for a dramatic paisley-printed number.

Meanwhile, Oscar-winning actor Colin Firth decided to make the event a date night by attending with his wife Livia, who looked stunning in a gorgeous emerald-green silk dress.

The pair, who married in 1997, looked more in love than ever as they posed for photographers at the event.

Firth, who took home the coveted Best Actor prize for his role in last year's hit movie The King's Speech, has spoken frequently about his love for his wife, and credited her support for his success.

Accepting his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame earlier this year, Firth said at the ceremony: 'When I look down there at that star, it's her name I see.'
