Over the years, Nicola Coughlan has been a standout presence at movie premieres, red-carpet events, and fashion showcases, captivating audiences with her eye-catching ensembles.

She has consistently demonstrated her fashion prowess, from vibrant minidresses to bold outfits and sophisticated gowns. So, it’s safe to say Nicola Coughlan emerges as the most stylish figure among the Bridgerton cast. However, her recent outfit choice didn’t hit the mark for me.

Stylish Couple at Bridgerton Season 3 Milan Photocall

On Thursday, May 9, Nicola Coughlan and her co-star Luke Newton radiated at the Bulgari Hotel in Milan while attending the Season three photocall for the beloved Netflix series Bridgerton.

Despite Luke Newton’s height of 6 feet (1.83 meters), which isn’t exceptionally tall by conventional standards, he appeared quite towering next to Nicola Coughlan, who stands at just 4 feet 11 inches (149.9 cm).

The third season is set to premiere in two parts: the first four episodes will be released on May 16, and the final four will be released on June 13.

Nicola and Luke, the leading stars of the upcoming season, appeared at ease in each other’s company, showcasing their chemistry as they posed for photographers in stylish Versace ensembles. Wearing Italian luxury fashion designer attires seemed fitting for their promotional event in Italy.

Luke Newton, who plays Colin, the third eldest Bridgerton son in the viral Netflix series, exuded sophistication in his sleek ensemble.

The 31-year-old English actor sported a trendy white ribbed tank top with the brand’s logo layered beneath a sophisticated light gray blazer. Charcoal flared jeans and polished black dress shoes complemented the ensemble, completing his dapper look.

Radiates in a Sophisticated All-White Versace Outfit

For her part, Nicola Coughlan opted for a nod to the 1960s fashion trend as she graced the event in an all-white Versace outfit. The shift silhouettes reminiscent of that era and mod accessories such as headbands and rectangular handbags set the tone for her look.

While staying true to the 37-year-old Irish actress’ distinctive style, which leans towards candy shades and voluminous silhouettes, I can’t help but feel underwhelmed by her outfit choice.

The brightness of her ensemble washed out the finer details, detracting from its overall impact. For me, she shines brightest in pastel hues, which would have been more fitting for the spring season in Italy.

Nonetheless, I acknowledge her elegance and sophistication in the monochromatic attire, reminiscent of her character Penelope Featherington from the Netflix regency drama.

Nicola adorned herself in an exquisite Versace wool-blend shift mini-dress from the luxury fashion house’s Spring/Summer 2024 collection. You can buy her Versace scoop-neck minidress at Farfetch for $1,990.

In a light beige tone, the chic yet tight-fitting outfit accentuated her enviable figure, though I feel it is slightly too snug. It boasted a sleeveless design, scoop neckline, appliqué detailing on the sides, and a thigh-high length accentuating her legs.

She completed the look and paired the bodycon dress with a white Versace Barocco silk Lavalliere shirt. The sheer floral blouse, adorned with the iconic tonal jacquard Barocco pattern, featured a button-down closure with long sleeves, buttoned cuffs, and a scarf-style collar tied into a bow.

Complementing the Monochrome Look with Chic Accessories

Nicola Coughlan slipped into matching silver metallic Versace Gianni Ribbon pumps to complement her sophisticated outfit.

These trendy shoes boasted a sharp silhouette with square pointed toes and clear slingback straps. They were adorned with a ‘Nastro Gianni’ bow detail featuring the Medusa Head plaque.

The pair, crafted from leather, also featured transparent block heels measuring 105 mm in height, giving her petite frame a significant lift. You can buy her Versace Medusa Head metallic leather pumps at Farfetch for $1,295.

Styled by Aimée Croysdill, known for her work with clients such as Marisa Abela, Ellie Bamber, and Freya Allan, I commend her accessorizing Nicola’s look to infuse it with femininity and playfulness.

She kept her accessories understated, opting for a silver ring on her finger and carrying a sleek Versace Medusa 95 small tote bag.

Crafted from smooth, flat-grain leather, the top handle purse boasted belt detail adorned with silver Medusa ’95 hardware, magnetic closure, and a detachable crossbody shoulder strap.

In terms of her makeup, Nicola appeared youthful and radiant with a simple yet effective approach. I particularly like the combination of brown, smokey eyes and glossy pink lips.

For her hairstyle, she wore her blonde locks in loose waves, accentuated by a chic silver metallic Versace Gianni Ribbon headband, which featured a bow accented with the signature Medusa hardware.
