Nicola Coughlan at the European Premiere of Barbie in London.

Help! I’ve fallen and I can’t get up! I’ve been knocked to the ground by the gorgeousness of Bridgerton and Derry Girls star Nicola Coughlan on the pink carpet!

By now you’ve surely seen your fair share of stunning looks from the various Barbie premieres and events. Issa Rae, America Ferrera, and especially Margot Robbie have been serving and slaying for days.

I am in fact screaming and crying and throwing up. This absolutely looks like something you’d put a special Holiday Doll in, plus that sexy makeup and Old Hollywood hair? Holographic nails! Chandelierrings! At any other event, the stuck-on crystals might be too much, but given how bright the entire ambiance is, her sparkle is entirely appropriate. In my humblest opinion, she has never looked better.

Coughlan’s stylist, Aimée Croysdill, revealed on Instagram that the gown is a custom Wiederhoeft (who created a similar look for Jennifer Coolidge) made with Tencel sustainable fabric. Nails by Michelle Class, makeup by Neil Young and hair by Halley Brisker, who provided us with a lil behind-the-scenes tutorial:
