He was among acting royalty on Thursday night for the premiere of Dunkirk, in which he bagged his first major role.

But later in the evening, Harry Styles proved that he hadn't forgotten his roots when he shunned the film's leading stars at the afterparty to be with pals for Bleach London's make-up range launch party.

The One Direction star, 23, mingled with his hair stylist Lou Teasdale, whose twin sister owns the Bleach brand, as he attended the relaxed event.

Dressed in a sharp grey suit and crisp white shirt to reveal a glimpse of his chain, he opted to stay in the same ensemble from his premiere.

Meanwhile Lou looked chic in a semi-sheer black blouse and skin-tight trousers with a gold statement zip. 

His appearance came after he joked to reporters on the Dunkirk red carpet that he may soon be retiring from acting, earlier in the evening.

Speaking to reporters at the world premiere in Leicester Square, he said of his role: 'I'm thinking, what am I doing?

'I feel very lucky to be a part of Dunkirk… I'd do this one again but it may be one and done… I'd do this one again.'

He continued: 'I really enjoyed this. I've peaked too soon! There's nowhere to go.'

Harry, Tom Hardy, Cillian Murphy - as well as Prince Harry- led the extremely dapper arrivals at the Odeon cinema in Leicester Square on Thursday for the historical action drama which tells the story of soldiers being evacuated from the beaches of Dunkirk during the Second War War.

Harry, who rocketed to fame in the 2010  X Factor, has won early praise for his role of Alex in Dunkirk

Harry plays the role of Alex, a British soldier, in the historical drama alongside newcomer Fionn Whitehead and Tom Hardy and has claimed he was in 'awe' of Noaln when he initially walked out on set during Dunkirk's production.

Harry said: 'Being a fan of Chris and being on set with him, it's hard not to be in awe of him just in the way that he works.

'You feel lucky that you get to watch someone like that work and someone so passionate of what they're doing I feel is always a privilege to be around people like that.'

While Dunkirk could be seen as Harry's big break into the film industry, he admits he 'hasn't thought too much' about crossing over and pursuing a career in acting.

Over the last few months, Harry has been pursuing his own solo career when it comes to music and enjoyed chart success with his debut single Sign Of The Times. 

'I really enjoyed this. I've peaked too soon! There's nowhere to go,' he joked
