Samantha Armytage proved she can go from casual to couture in a heartbeat when she stepped out at the Logie Awards on Sunday night.
The Golden Bachelor host, who is newly single and ready to mingle following her divorce from Richard Lavender, swapped her low-key weekend look for a jaw-dropping red carpet transformation.
Just a day earlier, the 48-year-old was spotted rugged up in a beige turtleneck sweater and brown leggings, carrying a pink yoga mat as she headed to a morning workout in Sydney.
She kept her face makeup-free, and added to her look with a beanie and a navy puffer jacket.
Fast forward to Sunday evening and Sam was almost unrecognisable, turning heads in a breathtaking cream gown with graduated shades of beige, pale pink and grey.
The ethereal dress featured a sheer tulle overlay and an elegant sweeping neckline that sat gracefully across one shoulder.

She paired the ensemble with a full face of bronzed makeup, a soft pink lip and glittering statement earrings.
Her blonde locks were swept back in a chic updo, giving her an effortlessly polished look.
But it wasn’t just her gown that had tongues wagging – it was her dashing date for the evening.
On her arm was Barry ‘Bear’ Myrden, the charming 61-year-old star of her new dating series The Golden Bachelor.
While the pairing was part of a clever promotional push for the upcoming series, the glamorous outing also marked Sam’s triumphant public comeback.
Friends say the event was a significant moment for the TV favourite, who has spent the past year largely out of the spotlight following the breakdown of her marriage.
‘Sam’s looking amazing and she’s feeling better than she has in a long time,’ one insider told Daily Mail Australia.
‘She’s got a great new project, she’s glowing – and you can tell she’s enjoying life again.’

Sam split with husband Richard Lavender late last year, just shy of their four-year anniversary.
The television personality has been single and ready to mingle ever since, and has recently undergone a glamorous makeover ahead of her hosting role on The Golden Bachelor.
Barry ‘Bear’ Myrden is an infrastructure engineer and passionate sailor from Sydney, who has been handpicked as the leading man for the upcoming Australian adaptation.
He is a father-of-three and a respected professional in the tech industry, currently working in Data Centre Management for Woolworths Group.
