Looking every inch the red carpet queen, Laura looked svelte in the skintight creation, which featured an opulent Bardot neckline.
Further elongating her lean legs, the presenter added some vertiginous nude ankle-strap platforms.
Putting her signature quirky twist on the outfit, Laura added a smattering of 90s-style chokers and eye-catching turquoise rings.

The BAFTAs, hosted by Stephen Fry, will be broadcast on BBC One, with high hopes for Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling's flick La La Land winning big after nabbing 11 nominations.
Amy Adams' two films Nocturnal Animals and Arrival are the closest competitors with nine apiece, and she will face her own battle in the category for Leading Actress for the latter, against Emily Blunt, Meryl Streep and Natalie Portman.  
But it's La La Land's high-commended stars Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling that head up the Leading Actress and Leading Actor categories.
