She's the perfect English rose, and never fails to dazzle with her classically elegant looks.
And Emilia Fox was the picture of understated glamour as she led a host of stars at the London Library summer party in St James Square on Thursday.
The 40-year-old actress stood out from the crowd as she arrived at the bash, slipping into a pretty off-white sundress with blue floral detail at the hem.

Actress Jerry Hall was also invited along to the high-brow event, celebrating the iconic library and its books.
The 58-year-old former model donned a tight fitting brown and black animal print dress and simple nude flats as she mingled with her showbiz pals at the bash.
Screen legend Vanessa Redgrave also made an appearance at the members-only party, with the actress looking lovely in a floral top and black wide-leg trousers.

Earlier this year, Emilia took part in gruelling reality TV show Bear Grylls: Mission Survive, which saw the contestants' survival skills tested - they were even forced to drink their own urine.
But she clearly enjoyed the much more sophisticated setting on Thursday, and couldn't help but share a snap outside the library with her followers on Twitter.
She said: 'Wonderful evening @TheLondonLib - one of my favourite places in London. Inspiring books and company.'
