She’s celebrating her first major stage role. But Daisy-Edgar-Jones brought a touch of Disney to the press night of her West End gig.
The actress channelled her inner Tinkerbell in a stunning dress by Victoria Beckham at the Cat on a Hot Tin Roof press night bash.
The 26-year-old Normal People star looked every bit the modern-day fairy as she stepped into the star-studded event held at London’s Almeida Theatre on Tuesday evening.
Exuding a Tinkerbell-like charm, Ms Edgar-Jones was wearing Mrs Beckham’s Draped Tuck bold emerald green mini dress from the SS25 collection.
The dress featured an asymmetrical neckline and draped semi-sheer chiffon layers, with a subtly puffed hem.
And while her makeup was kept light and dewy, the actress looked effortlessly elegant as she styled her brunette locks into loose waves with a middle parting.
She paired the enchanting dress with some nude peep-toe heels by Tory Burch.
Inside the glitzy event, Ms Edgar-Jones was snapped mingling with fellow stars including Secret Invasion actor Kingsley Ben-Adir.

The 38-year-old, who will soon hit the screens as Bob Marley in his biopic, opted for an all-black look with a stylish maxi coat and patent leather loafers.
Elsewhere Ms Edgar-Jones also rubbed shoulders with Tina and Bobby star, Clare Burt, as well as I May Destroy You actress, Pearl Chanda.
The night marked a milestone for Daisy as she celebrated her first major stage role, portraying the headstrong Maggie in Tennessee Williams’ Mississippi family psychodrama.
It comes as casting directors are reportedly eyeing Daisy to star as a Disney princess opposite Chris Hemsworth as Prince Charming.
Sources have also revealed that she received scripts for the role of Lizzie Bennet in a new Netflix TV series adaptation of Pride and Prejudice, but she reportedly declined the opportunity.
The novel has already been adapted into film several times, including the iconic 2005 version starring Keira Knightley.

Ms Edgar-Jones, who recently signed as the face of Zara Hair, is the daughter of leading British TV executive Phil Edgar-Jones, 58.
Branded the new English ‘It Girl’, the actress has set the internet ablaze this year with her head-turning looks.
She appeared in the Cold Feet reboot, playing the daughter of Hermione Norris’s character Karen.
But her breakthrough came in Normal People, based on Sally Rooney’s bestselling novel, which earned Daisy Golden Globe and BAFTA nominations.
Since then she has played opposite Andrew Garfield, 41, in the crime drama Under The Banner Of Heaven, and was the lead in the film Where The Crawdads Sing.
