Mathilda Mace left nothing to the imagination as she rocked a very racy mankini-style ensemble at the British Fashion Awards, held at the Royal Albert Hall on Monday.
The London-based costume, prosthetics and special effects make-up Artist risked a wardrobe malfunction as she showcased plenty of skin in the barely-there ensemble that just about covered her assets.
Mathilda confidently posed in the outfit which allowed her to showcase her cleavage, toned midriff and legs, with the ensemble featuring a quirky train.
She boosted her height with statement black platform boots while making a minimal effort to cover up in a cropped black jacket.
Mathilda styled her cropped raven locks in a centre parting, while adding a pop of colour to her eye-catching look with a sweep of red lipstick.

Self-taught artist Mathilda has gained a strong following since dropping out of university in 2020 and launching her very own business, designing unique prosthetics for everyone from FKA Twigs to Megan Thee Stallion.
Speaking about forging her own path and not conforming to trends, Mathilda – who landed in the Forbes 30 under 30 list in 2023 – she told Dazed Digital this year: ‘I am very passionate about the fact that we are not allowed to fully express ourselves.
‘People want instant gratification – if you aren’t producing art that is in keeping with media trends and social standards, you aren’t able to grow because no one validates you.
‘I want to communicate and teach people how to be undeniably themselves. This is something I will be exploring and learning this year. Expression is the word!’
