Rosie Huntington-Whiteley narrowly avoids a wardrobe malfunction when her perilously plunging gown gapes open as she leaves the British Fashion Awards

A hosts of stars from the worlds of TV, film and music turned out to the British Fashion Awards on Monday night.

However, it was the supermodels leading the way when it came to impressing with their sartorial style as they arrived at the star-studded ceremony.

Looking stunning as ever was Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, who showed some skin in a very low-cut Burberry gown as she arrived at the London Coliseum - but only narrowly avoided a wardrobe malfunction as she headed home from the bash.

As she got into the back of her waiting car, the 28-year-old catwalk queen's perilously plunging gown gaped open - leaving her at risk of revealing a little too much. 

The Devon-raised blonde had styled her hair in a long glossy bob, with nude sandals and drop earrings completing her look for the high-profile event, held in association with Ciroc Vodka and FIJI WATER.

Her choice to wear Burberry was no surprise given her long association with the brand, having recently starred in their all-star Christmas campaign.

Rosie had flown back to London especially for the awards - one of the biggest nights in the fashion calendar - after spending time with actor boyfriend Jason Statham in California last week, where the couple live.

Emulate Rosie's elegant style with a stunning plunge neck dress

She's starring in Burberry's new Christmas film. So it was fitting that Rosie Huntington-Whitely wore a dress by the brand to the British Fashion Awards.

The leggy model donned a sparkly plunge neck gown that dipped down in the back to reveal her flawless back and had a slit that ran up her thigh.

Rosie stood out on the red carpet amid a sea of embellished and brightly colored frocks when she chose this simple yet daring design. She kept her jewelry minimal as well, wearing just a pair of dangly earrings and finishing off her look with some nude sandals.

Rosie's custom number won't be mass produced, but you can emulate her elegant style with a browse below. Adrianna Papell makes a sequin version that's under $300 or splurge on Theia's breathtaking option.

In a recent interview, Rosie admitted she surrounded herself with a lot of Brits while living Stateside.

She said: 'I'm quite conscious of ever sounding American, and sometimes you do pick up little things they would say. But it helps living with a Brit. Most of my mates in LA are British, or European. You stick together.'

Joining Rosie was former Burberry model Jourdan Dunn, who also defied freezing temperatures in a daring backless gown.
