Daisy Lowe looked stunning as she walked onto the GQ Men Of The Year Awards red carpet.

Wearing a plunging black gown, the model also displayed her slim legs through the dress's split panel skirt.

But while the ensemble was on the perfect side of sophisticated sexy, sadly a slight wardrobe malfunction left Daisy, 24, showing off more of her knickers than she was hoping to.

Despite the flash of her undies - which may well have been part of the dress - Daisy's sultry red lips draws attention to her English rose face, with a sweep of black eye-liner on her upper lids to finish off the vintage look.

With her hair tousled into loose waves past her shoulders, the model exuded retro sex appeal, enhanced by the diamond and pearl necklace, statement ring and velvet handbag that accessorised the outfit.

Finished off with a pair of red patent T-bar heels, Daisy certainly wanted to make an entrance to the mens' magazine Awards on Tuesday night.

The fact that her ex-boyfriend Matt Smith was also in attendance may or may not have had something to do with her stellar effort, for if they did bump into one another, she certainly would have been happy with her presentation.

The former Doctor Who arrived with another woman on his arm, but thankfully for single Daisy, it was his sister.

No doubt the event would have drudged up fond memories for the pair, as they attended the 2011 GQ Awards as a couple.

Likes his Suit & Tie: Daisy only had eyes for one man... Justin Timberlake who presented a the designer award to Tom Ford

However, the 24-year old only had eyes for one man at the show... one Justin Timberlake who had rushed over to the ceremony after performing at a special pre-recorded Live Lounge at BBC Radio 1.

The popstar had arrived just in time to present the Designer Award to Tom Ford, but also made sure to give a shout out to his friend Pharrell Williams, who won Performer Of The Year.

Daisy enjoyed the masculine show with her friend Alexa Chung, who had arrived back into the country from America a few days before.
