Daisy Ridley wowed audiences in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, and now she's stunning everyone on the red carpet. See the young actress' best style moments as she becomes our red carpet fave...

Daisy Ridley has come a long way since her red carpet debut for Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

After wowing audiences in the blockbuster film - it earned over $2 billion, people - Daisy has garnered critical acclaim and the love of Star Wars' fans.

But, it is her *serious* fashion prowess that has us falling in love with Daisy. Thanks to the her bold, fashion-forward looks and love of colour, she's stolen our hearts, shunning the awkwardness of a red carpet debut to become our style star-to-watch in 2016. 

Quickly bursting onto the scene after being cast in Star Wars, Daisy made waves by donning glorious designer togs, despite being a relative unknown. Dior, Mary Katrantzou and Chanel were clamouring to dress the star, and she obliged with some fashion-forward looks that weren't afraid to be different.

Take for instance, her latest red carpet look, where Daisy showed off athletic figure in a Hugo Boss navy blue outfit, with sheer panels and sparkly heeled shoes.

Even her shoe game is on point - we're already crushing on her growing collection - and as for her hair, the star has been rocking some gorgeous up-dos as well as soft waves, emphasising her natural British beauty.
