Denise Van Outen donned a figure-hugging dress as she enjoyed her first night out since announcing her split from boyfriend Jimmy Barba.
The 49-year-old Big Breakfast star donned a dazzling dress ahead of a MacMillan charity gala at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London on Thursday.
Denise was leggy, her jeweled gown cut thigh-high and ending in a floor-length sheer tulle skirt.
Her dress featured an ample amount of cleavage and had off the shoulder fabric skirts that floated beautifully over her toned back.
Denise paired the stunning outfit with a pair of nude strappy heels and a simple cream bracelet.

Gorgeous: It was the first time the Big Breakfast star had been seen partying since her boyfriend Jimmy Barba
The star posed with fashion guru Gok Wan, 49, Blue’s star Duncan James, 45, and event presenter Al Murray, 55.
It comes after the star split from boyfriend Jimmy, 49, following a whirlwind 18-month romance.
The presenter and DJ went with the 55-year-old project developer last summer.
Denise told The Sun: “We have decided to separate but we remain good friends and our families and children are still in touch.”
After an amicable split, Denise and Jimmy still follow each other on social media and capture lovey-dovey snaps on their profiles.
After a previously devastating breakup, Denise found love again with Jimmy in July 2022.
She met Jimmy through All Saints singer Shaznay Lewis at the Grand Prix Ball and the pair enjoyed their first holiday together after flying to Marbella.
Just a few months ago, Denise opened up about her “good relationship” with Jimmy, sharing that she didn’t feel the need to do any research on her new man because she knew those closest to her would never set her up with someone she couldn’t trust. .

She told The Sun: “I’m in a really good relationship now. ‘Jimmy is cute!’
Denise added about the friends they made: “I was introduced to him by my friends who I’ve known most of my life.
“I didn’t think I should have him x-rayed. I knew they would never pair me up with someone I couldn’t trust. I knew they wouldn’t do that to me and he knows too many people.’
Blue star Duncan James and Gary Barlow were among her famous friends who gave him the seal of approval when he worked with Jimmy from his days as a professional dancer.
In 2010, Jimmy became a household name in Italy after appearing in the eleventh season of Big Brother (Grande Fratello), where he came in fourth place.
Although he may not have won the series and won the grand prize of 300,000 euros, he entertained audiences during his time by falling in love with two of his housemates, Rosa Baiano and Margherita Zanatta.
What followed was a short-lived pop career that saw Jimmy release three singles between 2012 and 2013 – although they failed to chart.
More recently, Jimmy – who described his career as a dancer and farmer when he appeared on Grande Fratello – shunned the world of showbiz and became a property developer.
However, the British-Italian star showed that he is still interested in celebrity culture when he spoke to singer Cheryl and Sky Sports’ Laura Woods, among others.
