Ellie Goulding and Avril Lavigne added some A-list glamour to the front row on Wednesday afternoon as Elie Saab unveiled his latest collection at Paris Fashion Week.
The Lebanese designer was on hand to present his Olivia Palermo and Johannes Hueblshow as guests converged on the French capital for the penultimate day of haute couture womenswear shows.
Leading a host of stars ahead of Wednesday’s event, Ellie, 37, claimed the spotlight in a sweeping semi-sheer frock coat with a belted waist.
A matching miniskirt and thigh-high leather boots completed the look, while her trademark blonde hair was styled with a conventional centre-parting.
The singer, attending the event after partying with Taylor Swift at London venue Chiltern Firehouse on Monday evening, settled down alongside fellow guest Olivia Palermo after posing for a series of photos.
Ensuring she claimed her own share of the spotlight, Avril, 39, stood out in a sparkling purple coat and chunky peep-toe heels.
The Canadian singer rounded off her look with a raffish wide-brimmed hat, while her bold make-up gave the overall look a dramatic flourish.
Adding an additional sprinkling of glamour to proceedings, Swedish model Victoria Silvstedt was also in attendance as the event got underway.
Ellie’s appearance comes after she was reunited with estranged husband Caspar Jopling – just one day after returning from Costa Rica, where she spent time with her new surfer boyfriend.
The couple, who announced they were separating after four years of marriage in February, were seen on a stroll in London last Saturday looking relaxed.
Ellie and Casper, who said they remain ‘the closest of friends’ and are ‘successfully co-parenting’ their three-year-old son Arthur, have been spotted on multiple occasions together despite their split.
Their united front comes just days after she was seen taking a sunset dip with surf instructor Armando Perez near the small beach town of Santa Teresa.
Ellie had met Armando in December while on a girl’s holiday to the Central American country that borders Nicaragua and Panama.
In February, following rumours that she and Casper had been living apart for six months, photos emerged of the Burn singer kissing and cuddling the hunky surfer in the sea without her wedding ring, fuelling speculation.
It led to the pair publicly announcing their split, with the three-time BRIT award winner and climate activist stating on Instagram: ‘In light of recent stories, I feel I have been left with no choice but to let you all know that Caspar and I privately separated some time ago.
‘We remain the closest of friends and have been successfully co-parenting with our son’s best interests at heart.
‘We are committed to protecting our family privacy and thank people in advance for respecting our wishes – we won’t be commenting further. Thank you.’
Since then, the singer has been spotted on several occasions back in Costa Rica spending time with Perez.
