Victoria's Secret's new British Angel Leomie Anderson struts down the red carpet in jaw-dropping metallic gown at Cannes premiere of Once Upon A Time In Hollywood

Last month she landed her 'dream job' of Victoria's Secret Angel.

And on Wednesday night Leomie Anderson was stealing the spotlight from the a-listers at the Cannes Film Festival premiere of Once Upon A Time In Hollywood.

The 26-year-old British model seemed to be preparing for her new role as a VS Angel as she strutted down the red carpet in a jaw-dropping metallic gown, which flaunted her incredible figure.

Leomie turned heads in her incredible gown, which featured a tiny leotard covered in sparkling metallic shards sewn onto the bodice.

The was even more drama though as a huge train was attached to the back of the bodice with the yards of ruffled material shimmering in the evening sunlight.

Leomie accessorised with silver strappy heels and a smattering of dazzling jewels.

Looking gorgeous from head to toe she styled her hair into a sleek ponytail and finished the look with flawless makeup. 

Last month Victoria's Secret announced that Leomie was among a small group of models who were given the coveted title of a Victoria's Secret Angel.

In an Instagram post she wrote: 'Mate I am still in shock... this is something I was even scared to dream about because I never thought it would come true but I am insanely excited to announce that I am Victoria's Secret's newest ANGEL!! I can't even believe it..."

Anderson has modelled for the American brand since 2015. 

Leomie's showbiz pals were quick to congratulate the model, taking to the comments section of the post to offer their well-wishes. 

Fellow VS model Jourdan Dunn said: 'SCREAMING!!!!!! So proud of you lil sis your time is NOW!!.', before adding a series of 'gbs' below, referencing their nationality.

Clearly appreciative of Jourdan's kind words, Leomie replied to her by saying: '@jourdandunn love you J.'

Also keen to pass on her congratulations was Rita Ora, who simply wrote: 'I love you!!!!'

Leomie, who is set to join Candice Swanepoel and Behati Prinsloo in the prestigious group of models, began her modelling career in 2010 and her first show was for Marc Jacobs, while she is also the face of Rihanna's Fenty Beauty line.
