OK, not everyone wore black (we'll get to those adventurous souls in a moment) but most people did.
Well, the Olivier Awards are The Oscars of the theatre world and therefore somewhat a serious event, so the vast majority seemed to reach for the FLBD (formal long black dress), like Nicole Scherzinger, James McAvoy and Anne-Marie Duff, Gillian Anderson, Pixie Lott, Gemma Arterton, Laura Carmichael, Tamsin Outhwaite, Camilla Kerslake...
Those embracing the black, but with hues of other colours included Claire Sweeney and Preeya Kalidas...
And now to those industrious individuals who opted to bring a much needed splash of colours to proceedings, we have (Nicholas Hoult's reported new squeeze), Dianna Agron, Kimberly Walsh, Katherine Kelly, and Emilia Fox, who went above and beyond the call of colour by coming as a welcomed summer meadow courtesy of Bambah Boutique.

What do you favour for formal events yerself? The LBD or a burst of colour?
