Downton Abbey has done wonders for Lily James’ career. Not only was she the new face of Burberry’s latest fragrance — joining the ranks of Kate Moss and Cara Delevingne — she also got to turn on the Harrods Christmas Lights – a spectacle that thousands of Londoners look forward to every year.

The English actress dressed to the nines for the occasion. She donned a chic, black lace dress from the “A Very British Fairytale” Burberry collection, specially created for Harrods.

Lily topped it off with a large beige trench coat, which we assume is from the same Burberry collection.

Harrods and Burberry collaborated to create an interactive holiday display. Visitors could interact with the windows using motion sensors and touch triggers to bring the story to life.
