Lady Kitty Spencer showed off her gothic side

This year's theme was 'A Beautiful Darkness' and Kitty reflected this perfectly.

The society beauty was dazzling in dramatic smokey purple eye make-up and black eyeliner. She completed her striking look with one of the season's biggest beauty trends – a slick of statement lipstick in a dark berry shade. TShe added a touch of old Hollywood glamour by wearing her long glossy tresses down in tumbling loose curls, with a middle parting.

Kitty further showed off her high fashion credentials in an elegant floor-length dress with sheer panels. The eye-catching ensemble was finished off with a silver jewel-embellished clutch.

Lady Kitty Spencer wowed with her striking beauty look

The gothic look is one of the season's biggest beauty trends – check out our step-by-step guide to recreating Kitty's look...

Eyes: For Kitty's dramatic eye look, start by patting white eyeshadow into your inner eye corner and on the brow bone. Take a large brush and add the purple shade on your eyelid. Next, dip a blending brush into navy eyeshadow and start blending from the outer corner of your eye, working inwards into the crease. When you're happy with the colour, use a black kohl eyeliner and line the inner rim of the eye, then use a liquid liner to create a winged finish.

Lips: Start by applying concealer to your lips to hold the colour in place. Then using a lip liner matching your chosen lipstick shade, line the lips to create a barrier to stop the colour from bleeding. Using a lip brush (this will give you more precision), apply the lipstick all over your lips. For a more intense look, add a slick of lipgloss.

Hair: The best way to achieve Kitty's luscious waves is with a curling tong. On dry hair, use your fingers to take a small section of hair and spritz with heat-protective spray. Start by wrapping your hair around the curlers a few inches from the ends, trying to keep the curler horizontal. Work through your hair in sections. When you're finished, lightly comb through the curls with your fingers and then use hairspray to keep them in place.
