It’s not often that we get to say that Celia Imrie stole the show at a red carpet event, but we are definitely here for her appearance at the premiere of ‘Absolutely Fabulous’ last night (30 June).
Clearly bearing the bold fashion choices made in ‘Ab Fab’ in mind, Celia dressed to impress as she made her way into the event.
She was snapped striking a series of wonderfully camp poses on the red carpet, serving true Hollywood glamour.

Celia sported a floor-length pale blue dress for the premiere, paired with some silver high heel shoes.
However, our favourite part of the outfit is her white fur coat, which some might say was slightly OTT given that we’re about to enter July, but we applaud the bold fashion choice regardless.

Celia, you werqed it. And you looked, to coin a phrase, absolutely fabulous.

The British comedy actress is reprising her role as Claudia Bing in the big screen adaptation of ‘Ab Fab’, which will also see all of the BBC sitcom’s main cast returning to play the roles we know and love them in, including leading stars Jennifer Saunders, Joanna Lumley, Julia Sawalha, Jane Horrocks and June Whitfield.
Additionally, roughly 700 celebrities (alright, a possible slight exaggeration on our part) are making cameo appearances, from the A-list (Jourdan Dunn, Kate Moss, Stella McCartney) to the slightly less A-list (Judith Chalmers, Christopher Biggins, Rylan Clark-Neal).
‘Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie’ makes its much-awaited cinema debut on Friday (1 July).
