It's one of the hardest weeks to stand out from the crowds thanks to every fashionista in town pulling out all the stops even more than usual.

But somehow the usually coy Thandie Newton stole the show at Harper's Bazaar London Fashion Week closing party on Tuesday evening.

The actress ensured all eyes were on her as she arrived at the glitzy bash at Mark's Club, which was held in conjunction with Johnnie Walker Gold and Tanqueray Gin.

She wore a stunning Vivienne Westwood trouser suit that, while covering up her legs, revealed her flesh as she opted for a plunging neckline with no top underneath.

The 40-year-old smouldered even more thanks to her glistening hair and perfect red pout.

Accessorising with gold Stella McCartney high heels she expertly posed for photographers before heading inside to party with the rest of the fashion conscious crowd.

And inside she revealed it was actually her husband who helped her choose the revealing ensemble.

She said: 'My husband has impeccable fashion taste and I always consult him before going anywhere, I chose this and got the thumbs up from him!'

Thandie Newton told us how this was her 'only fashion week event as all of my efforts go in to the BAFTAs, although I love to keep up to date, by following all the shows and gossip online.'

S he just returned from her filming in Nigeria and commented 'we were the first big motion picture to be filmed in Nigeria. It was fantastic and I think it will be the a hot spot for filming in 5 years’ time.'

Daring: She showed off her cleavage in the suit as she celebrated the end of the fashion conscious few days
