'I forgot my crown!' Claire Foy swaps Queen Elizabeth's royal robes for shimmering pink gown as she arrives at the Golden Globes

She's dazzled in stunning costumes for her role as Queen Elizabeth II in Netflix's hit drama The Crown.

But Claire Foy was worlds away from her on screen persona as she hit the 74th annual Golden Globes on Sunday evening in Los Angeles.

The British actress looked gorgeous in a shimmering pink gown for her red carpet walk at the ceremony, where she is nominated for Best Actress in a Television Series Drama.

Claire, 32, chose a pink sequinned custom gown designed by Erdem for her big night.

The pink and silver number featured a train and a sash to highlight the actress' trim waist, while the low, off-the-shoulder neckline flashed some skin.

Claire styled her blonde hair into an effortless up do and finished off her look with shimmering eye makeup to match her dramatic dress and a pale pink lip colour. 

Speaking to the Daily Mail on the red carpet, the actress joked about her lack of regal accessories.

Acclaimed role: The British actress is nominated for Best Actress in a Television Series Drama for her role as Queen Elizabeth II in Netflix drama The Crown

'Drat , I forgot my crown ,' she told Baz Bamigboye. 'But , I have two corgis and a sceptre in my handbag.'

'Handbag wasn't big enough to fit a tiara and crown anyway', she added. 

The night before the Golden Globes, the actress admitted she is 'completely terrified' about the prospect of winning the award at the BAFTA Tea Party in Los Angeles.

Claire has been portraying Queen Elizabeth II in hit Netflix series The Crown - with the first series depicting the power struggle between her and new husband Prince Phillip (played by Matt Smith) when she is thrust into leading the country.

Strong contenders: Claire's co-star John Lithgow is also nominated for his role as Winston Churchill, while the show will also compete in the Best Television Series – Drama category

The Stockport-born star explained that she has 'learnt so much' about herself as a screen star as well as the long-reigning monarch, thanks to the challenging role.

She added at the bash: 'I've learnt a lot about being an actor but I've also learnt a lot about her and her role, her duty, and what she's been through in life.'

The show, which is the most expensive drama ever with a budget of £100million, made its debut in November when the entire first series was released on Netflix. 

Claire's co-star John Lithgow is also nominated for his role as Winston Churchill, while the show will also compete in the Best Television Series – Drama category.
