Wallis Day looks incredible in black sheer dress as she joins stylish Meg Bellamy at Annabel's summer solstice party
Wallis Day and Meg Bellamy showed off their impeccable sense of style as they joined a host of stars for Annabel's summer solstice party in London on Thursday.
Opting for a risqué see-through black dress, Wallis, 30, stunned as she stepped out at the private member's club in Mayfair.
She added to her outfit with a long, black coat, finishing off the look with a black handbag with a hooped handle.
The model also kept it cool with her hairstyle as temperatures peaked at 30 degrees in the capital, wearing her short hair in a stylish slicked back look.
Meg, 22, who rose to fame for her portrayal of Kate Middleton in The Crown, stunned in a fashionable white dress that showed off her long legs.
She paired the outfit with a comfortable-looking pair of black flat shoes and small handbag, also keeping it cool on the hottest day of the year so far by wearing her hair in a casual up-do.
The annual event saw the club transformed into a floral paradise with 'mesmerising' entertainment, music and dancers, including a set from American dance duo Bedouin.
Guests were treated to a lavish meal before dancing the night away, enjoying cocktails made from the luxury tequila brand Don Julio Rosado.
Meg previously opened up about her style and life, admitting that there are 'connections' between herself and the casually glamorous Princess of Wales, who she portrayed while she was still a student at St Andrew's University.
She told Elle: 'There's definitely connections there. But I think that's what people love about her, that they can connect to those more humble roots, I suppose,' she said.
Wallis told Glamour magazine she's 'a bit of a rebel' and this is reflect in her style.
She said: 'I have had long blonde hair my whole life and when I cut my hair I finally felt like it had caught up with my personality.
'I am a bit of a rebel, so I kept the long blonde hair for auditions as that is what I thought casting directors wanted but it's brought a new wave of freedom and confidence.
'I literally booked three jobs the week after and I think that was my aura and my vibe in the room - that made a difference!'
Other names in attendance at the annual event included Welsh actress Banita Sandhu, Irish writer and broadcaster Emma Dabiri and Birley Clubs Creative Director Tatiana Kharchylava.
Casually stylish summer fits were clearly the order of the day and actress Adelle Leonce, 35, cut a similarly glamorous figure in a black figure-hugging dress with a see-through mesh top.
Actor Fady Elsayed, 31, similarly kept it cool in a back shirt and trousers, braving a jacket like Wallis, who he posed up a storm with.
Banita, meanwhile, showed off her incredible figure in a beige open-backed top and trousers while Emma Dabiri showed off her legs in a floral off-the-shoulder dress.
Tatiana similarly put on a striking display in an unusual black dress that was both revealing and stylish, adding a splash of colour to the look with silver statement earrings.

The 1% Club wipes out seven players instantly on easy 90% question – but would you have known the answer?
A QUESTION on The 1% Club wiped out players from the get-go - despite being deemed as easy. The popular quiz show, fronted by Lee Mack, is known for leaving players with their minds boggling thanks to its tough questions as the game goes on. 3 3 However for most of the 100 players, they manage to sail through the first few round which are deemed easy thanks to most of the general public being able to correctly answer them. But for one episode of the Saturday night quiz favourite, seven people fell at the very first hurdle. They all failed to correctly identify the answer to the opening 90% question - which was all about letters. Reading the question aloud, Lee said: "Which of the following words still makes a valid word if you change the first letter to the next letter in the alphabet?" Lee then told the players of the three choices they had to pick from, which were - Page, Rage and Wage. With 30 seconds on the clock, the 100 players did their best to attempt to answer the question. However, for seven of them, they could not get to the right answer. Lee then confirmed that the answer was in fact, Rage. By switching the 'R' to an 'S' - the following letter in the alphabet - players were left with the word, Sage. Page would have produced "oage", whilst Wage would have read "xage". The 1% Club wipes out 20 people on tricky numbers question One player who got it wrong admitted it was his "biggest fear" to go out on the 90% question. He told Lee that he panicked and failed to read the question properly before selecting the answer as "wage". Hardest Quiz Show Questions Would you know the answers to some of quizzing TV's hardest questions Who Wants To Be A Millionaire - Earlier this year, fans were left outraged after what they described as the "worst" question in the show's history. Host Jeremy Clarkson asked: 'From the 2000 awards ceremony onwards, the Best Actress Oscar has never been won by a woman whose surname begins with which one of these letters?' The multiple choice answers were between G, K, M and W. In the end, and with the £32,000 safe, player Glen had to make a guess and went for G. It turned out to be correct as Nicole Kidman, Frances McDormand and Kate Winslet are among the stars who have won the Best Actress gong since 2000. The 1% Club - Viewers of Lee Mack's popular ITV show were left dumbfounded by a question that also left the players perplexed. The query went as follows: "Edna's birthday is on the 6th of April and Jen's birthday falls on the 15th of October, therefore Amir's birthday must be the 'X' of January." It turns out the conundrum links the numbers with its position in the sentence, so 6th is the sixth word and 15th is the fifteenth word. Therefore, Amir's birthday is January 24th, corresponding to the 24th word in the sentence. The Chase - The ITV daytime favourite left fans scratching their heads when it threw up one of the most bizarre questions to ever grace the programme. One of the questions asked the player: "Someone with a nightshade intolerance should avoid eating what?" The options were - sweetcorn, potatoes, carrots - with Steve selecting sweetcorn but the correct answer was potatoes. 3
