She's already bagged herself an Olympic gold medal after a stellar performance in the heptathlon at London 2012 and now Jessica Ennis is fast becoming a style icon too.

The athlete made an impressive entrance as she arrived at the Harper's Bazaar Women of the Year Awards on Wednesday night.

Jessica, 26, showed off her flawless figure in a plunging pearl and black dress, oozing sophistication in the process.

The light satin panel at the front of the garment complemented the Team GB star's complexion to perfection, in short, she looked sensational.

Jessica teamed the dress with a pair of nude patent heels by Christian Louboutin and bright red lips for a showstopping look.

The sportswoman joined a suitably stylish crowd at the magazine awards ceremony held at the lavish Claridge's hotel.
