Mary Earps showed off her glamorous sense of style as she walked the red carpet at the BBC Sports Personality of the Year Awards at MediaCityUK in Salford on Tuesday.
Lionesses goalkeeper Mary, 30, looked sensational in a black plunging gown with sheer lace detail.
The footballer’s garment also featured a cut out detail along the midriff while she styled her tresses into loose waves for the event.
Her dress reached right down to the ground and she added a few inches to her stature by opting for Dune London’s Madrina black strappy heeled sandals for the evening.
The sports star accessorised with a delicate gold necklace and a matching bracelet.

The winner of the BBC Sports Personality of the Year award is set to be revealed this evening.
Mary is the frontrunner to be crowned at the glitzy bash after being named on the six-person shortlist.
She is the odds-on bookies’ favourite to become the second Lioness to land the coveted award following Beth Mead’s triumph last year.
Known as Mary Queen of Stops, the sportswoman faces competition from Ashes hero Stuart Broad and world heptathlon champion Katarina Johnson-Thompson.
Veteran jockey Frankie Dettori, Europe’s Ryder Cup talisman Rory McIlroy and wheelchair tennis No1 Alfie Hewett are also nominated for the prestigious award.
The sportsperson who tops the public vote tonight will become the 70th winner of SPOTY.
It comes after Mary was voted BBC’s Women’s Footballer of the Year, making history as the first goalkeeper honoured and capping a star-studded 2023 for the Lionesses No 1.
The 30-year-old has been honoured with a raft of awards for her contributions for both her country and for Manchester United, who she helped finish second in last year’s Women’s Super League table.

Earps was previously named Women’s Goalkeeper at FIFA’s The Best awards in 2022, before being named England Women’s Player of the Year in September following Sarina Wiegman’s side’s promising but ultimately unsuccessful World Cup campaign.
The shot-stopper won the Golden Glove in Australia in the wake of the summer’s tournament in Australia, just weeks after winning the honour in the WSL.
The England international was also feted at this year’s GQ Men of the Year awards, alongside peers including Spanish midfielder Jennifer Hermoso, and Wrexham’s Paul Mullin.
‘I am truly honoured,’ Mary told BBC Sport. ‘To be the first keeper to get their hands on the award is special, and I am incredibly grateful.’
