Hurley teamed the dress with a pair of nude pointed stilettos as she wore her hair in loose curls styled in a side parting.

Adding the necessary glamour to the ensemble, Liz wore a large silver necklace with matching earrings and rings.

Keeping the make-up to a minimum, the British actress and model lined her pout with a shade of nude lipstick and highlighted her stunning blue eyes with lashings of mascara.
