Hannah Waddingham has appeared to repurpose a full-length sparkly black and green ballgown that she previously wore at another award’s show for the Earthshot Prize’s green carpet.

The Ted Lasso star hosted the ceremony for the prize, which aims to recognise those finding environmental solutions for the planet, in Singapore on Tuesday.

She had previously worn a similar dress, from British fashion designer Suzanne Neville, at the Pride for Britain awards in 2021 along with a red poppy.

During the red carpet two years ago, Waddingham bowed down to American actress Sharon Stone, who greeted her in return.

Featuring a Carmella bodice with a full skirt and a train in black Anastasia sparkly tulle, Waddingham appears to have added a green sash that comes out into a long train for the Earth Prize event.

While reflecting the environmental message with the added green in her clothing, she also wore the Remembrance poppy again.

The 49-year-old actress was seen chatting to the Prince of Wales as she co-hosted the green event with This Is Us star Sterling K Brown.

Waddingham has been called on to host several events this year, including the Eurovision Song Contest and the Olivier Awards, where she performed an opening number with West End musical stars.
