It is the first ever fashion show to have been held at Westminster Abbey. 

And Alexa Chung pulled out all the stops for the Gucci Cruise Show 2017 at the Gothic Abbey Church in London's Westminster on Thursday. 

The 32-year-old model looked quite the Victorian lady in a floor-length sheer gown embroidered with flower appliques.

The pale pink gown featured a subtle polka dot print, long blouse-style sleeves and a high collar, with a ruffled skirt pulled in at the waist by a matching tie.

Alexa matched the dress with intricate black lace-up heels with pom poms.

Letting her outfit do the talking, the TV presenter kept her make-up light adding just a hint of pink lipstick.

With her hair tied into a loose half bun, Alexa added a dash of rock chic to the ensemble with a black leather biker jacket.

What a week it's been in the world of fashion.

First there was the Dior show in the grandiose setting of Blenheim Palace earlier this week, and now Gucci is giving them a run for their money by staging the Resort '17 show at London's Westminster Abbey.

Of course there were plenty of A-listers in attendance, and lucky Alexa Chung managed to get a front row seat at both!

She looked very elegant as she arrived at today's show, teaming a floaty and feminine pink midi dress from the AW'16 collection with a pair of pom pom trim lace up boots. Perfection! We love the frill skirt and cutesy collar on this dress, as well as the 3D floral embellishment around the neckline.

Unfortunately it's not yet available to buy, but click (right) to shop the current Gucci dress collection, or get next season style now with the help of our edit below. This Needle & Thread number is top of our shopping list, or think pink in a floral maxi from Miss Selfridge.

Also in attendance was Salma Hayek, donning gothic black from top-to-toe as she sat front of house with husband Francois-Henri Pinault.

Businessman Francois was no doubt excited to see what was in store for the pre-season collection as he is the chief executive officer of KERING, a Paris-based conglomerate that owns Gucci, as well as YSL and Bottega Veneta.

His wife sat beside Gucci CEO Marco Bizzarri, who also shared the front row seats with guests Soko, ASAP Rocky, Jay Jopling, Tatiana Casiraghi and Hikari Yokoyama. 

The guests bore witness to the first ever catwalk show held inside the Gothic church, which is the burial site of Lewis Carroll, Geoffrey Chaucer, and Aphra Behn.
