She's the head-turning girlfriend of England rugby player, Chris Robshaw.

And Camilla Kerslake proved she could hold her own as she stepped out solo for the Bacalaureat premiere at the 69th annual Cannes Film Festival in France on Thursday night.

The 27-year-old classical singer pulled out all the stops in a daring black lace applique Christophe Guillarme gown.

Show-stopping: Rugby WAG Camilla Kerslake stepped out solo for the Bacalaureat premiere at the 69th annual Cannes Film Festival in France on Thursday night

A figure-hugging short black bodice looked sensational underneath a sheer black overlay which featured patterned lace designs throughout.

The sheer neckline and long-sleeved see-through detailing gave her look a slight gothic vibe as her hands went on to drip with a silver jewellery- in particular a connected trendy waist to ring piece.

Around the bottom half of the outfit, the net detailing flaunted her toned legs demurely while the garment pooled out into a slight train behind her.

The half Welsh beauty accentuated her frame further with a pair of peep-toe stiletto black heels, which showed off her white pedicure.

The Cannes Film Festival is renowned for a seriously glamorous red carpet.

The roll call of designer names is endless and there are more models than at Fashion Week. Dresses are high octane, showstopping and sure to turn heads with embellishment, plunging necklines and plenty of skin on show.

And Camilla Kerslake clearly got the memo as she arrived at a premiere last night wearing a sheer gown by French designer Christophe Guillarme. Of course it didn't reveal too much thanks to the black slip underneath, but it was definitely a statement look.

We love the embroidery on the mesh sleeves and skirt and if you fancy stealing her style for you next black tie event how about one of the maxis in our edit below? TFNC, Rokoko, NastyGal and Missguided have all got great alternatives that'll do the trick.

Not content with her unconventional look just there, she went to town with her hair-do which featured a quirky side braid.

The other side of her luscious blonde tresses were rolled up out of her face, while the rest of her locks were left to reign free behind her shoulders, which ultimately showed off her quirky pearl earrings.

The stunner, who lived in New Zealand during her childhood, opted for a girly touch with her makeup with a deep pink pout and silvery shimmery lash-heavy eyes.

'Breaking ALL the rules': The beauty took a selfie on the red carpet - which is banned at Cannes- to show off her make-up look

Smiling wide, Camilla looked right in her element as she struck a series of confident poses, which showed off her toned frame.

She even supposedly broke all red carpet rules 'by taking a selfie,' on the carpet, in which she looked a vision as she enthused about her make-up application.

Earlier this year she opened up to Harper's Bazaar about working on her diet following the festive period, after gaining half a stone.

She ultimately settled for Beyonce's famous Lemon diet, stating: 'I decided to do one of the lesser options of five days with a nutribullet shake every morning to keep my vitamin and protein intake on point.

'I also took a daily multi-vitamin, a pro-biotic, an omega 3 supplement and a metabolism booster - called a Thermabol - from Maxinutrition,' she revealed.

Camilla- who has been dating Chris, 29, since 2011- rose to fame several years ago as one of Gary Barlow's hot musical recruits, and now boasts a successful career in the classical genre.

The Bacalaureat premiere brought out a slew of French talent and is 'a film about compromises and the implications of the parent's role,' according to IMDB.
