Nicola Coughlan’s 10 best fashion moments of all time
Regencycore is dominating the fashion realm once again thanks to the return of Netflix’s hit series Bridgerton.
The period drama, set in early 19th century England, has placed bustier corsets, pearls, gilded gold and brocade materials to the top of fashion lovers’ wishlists, with Google searches for ‘regencycore,’ puff sleeves and corsets spiking over the last month.
Nicola Coughlan, who plays central character Penelope Featherington in the show, has had more of her own iconic fashion moments than we can count.
Unafraid to experiment with her looks, her style file is filled to the brim with everything from statement silhouettes and bold hues, to ultra-chic LBDs and It-girl-approved styles.
Lady Whistledown would certainly have all eyes on her splendid fashion agenda…

For the premiere of Barbie, in which Nicola plays ‘Diplomat Barbie’, she opted for a crystal-adorned corset dress by Wiederhoeft.
When discussing her look with Vogue, she said: “I thought it’d be amazing to reference the look from the movie, so when I spoke to Aimee (Croysdill – her stylist), I said I’d love to wear something silver and inspired by (the Sparkle Eyes Barbie).”

She perfected dark romance in a satin midi dress featuring gigot sleeves and a lace body from Rodarte.
A step away from her usual dramatic statement outfits, this look proved her ability to switch up her aesthetic with ease.

Looking for wedding party inspo? Look no further. One might think lace, sequins and puff sleeves would be too much at once, but Nicola schooled us in wearing them together in an ethereal, glitzy white midi dress.
