The 24-year-old actress rocked a very mature outfit at the Duke of Cambridge's charity dinner, but she managed to make it look fresh and cool.

Emma Watson took a bit of a style risk at the Duke of Cambridge's charity dinner last night - and it paid off.

The 24-year-old Noah star chose a classic Ralph Lauren ensemble, wearing a timeless white shirt with a beautifully draped grey skirt and a skinny white belt. She wore her hair loosely pulled back and added carried a metallic Roger Vivier clutch.

The crisp-collared shirt and full skirt combination tends to be a more mature look. But not in this case.

Maybe it's her deep burgundy lips or her edgy ear cuff - but instead of looking middle-aged, Emma managed to make the ensemble cool and fresh.

All in all, it was the perfect choice for the elegant Royal Marsden Dinner.
