They've been close friends for the best part of seven years.

And Kate Beckinsale clearly still admires Victoria Beckham as she paid a sweet tribute to her on Friday night by stepping out in one of her dresses.

The London-born star put on a sexy display as she slipped into the white bodycon number for an evening out in West Hollywood, California.

Touching tribute: Kate Beckinsale honoured good friend Victoria Beckham's designer talents by stepping out in one of her dresses on a night out in West Hollywood, California, on Friday

Kate, 42, flaunted her pert cleavage as the form-fitting frock was bandeau in design which only served to highlight her perky assets.

The Underworld actress possibly picked the neutral-coloured frock in order to intensify her deep bronze all-over tan.

She heightened her slender figure with a pair of classic black heeled sandals which exposed her perfectly-painted black toenails while she gave her fingernails a white coating.

Kate accessorised her simple but super sexy look with a printed box clutch bag and a statement black and white necklace.

She couldn't have looked happier as she was pictured sauntering down the street, heading for a fun-filled night out with fellow Brit Jimmy Carr.

Kate wore her glossy brunette tresses in a high ponytail which swung from side-to-side as she sashayed down the sidewalk.

Following its last installment three years ago, her producer husband Len Wiseman recently revealed plans to release a fourth Underworld sequel.

He told IGN: 'There's kind of more of a spin-off of some of the characters like we did with Rise of the Lycans and then another film is also being developed in the works with Kate possibly as well, and then there's a television series as well.'

'It's kind of expanding that universe in many ways.'

Kate is reportedly set to reprise her role as Selene 12 years after appearing in the franchise's debut production.
