Sydney Sweeney is joined by rarely-seen younger brother Trent as she puts on a busty display in figure-hugging satin gown at Echo Valley premiere afterparty
Sydney Sweeney brought along her rarely-seen younger brother as her date to the European premiere of Echo Valley and following afterparty at London's BFI Southbank on Tuesday night.
The actress, 27, oozed Hollywood glamour at the premiere in a halterneck baby blue gown, with a flowing tulle train, before undergoing a wardrobe change for the celebratory bash afterwards.
She slipped into a satin Miu Miu champagne-coloured dress, that clung to her incredible figure and displayed her ample cleavage.
While her little brother Trent showed his pride for his sister as they posed for snaps together, cutting a trendy figure in a leather blazer, black trousers and aviator shades.
The siblings were joined by Trent's girlfriend, Samayre Soto - with the couple looking utterly smitten as he planted a kiss on her cheek.

Samayre looked effortlessly edgy for the event in a black corsetted satin dress, exposing her toned midriff and impressive collection of tattoos.
Trent is Sydney's sole sibling and enjoys a life away from the limelight, with him rarely making appearances on red carpets.
However, the brother-and-sister have frequently shown their very strong bond, with both taking to Instagram to share their support for each other.
In 2020, Sydney touched on their relationship, as she discussed whether it was similar to the sibling rivalry depicted in her film Nocturne.
She admitted: 'Not so much the competitive side, but I roughed him up and tried to push him to do more.'
After a few minor acting gigs in his childhood, Trent ultimately opted not to follow in his sister's footsteps.
In 2020, he began military training for the United States Air Force, with Sydney showing her support at the time on Instagram with a slew of throwback photos of the pair as kids.
In a sweet tribute, she captioned the post: 'My little bro leaves for basic training tomorrow. wishing you luck bud ❤️ when the going gets tough just remember your sister is tougher than you.'

While Trent has also shown his support for Sydney from the start of her huge Hollywood career, previously taking to his Instagram to promote her Netflix series Everything Sucks! and protest its cancellation.
While in 2019, he shared a throwback selfie of the pair together to voice his pride at her Screen Actors Guild nomination for The Handmaid's Tale.
He gushed: 'I know this is an old picture and I already posted it, but I wanted to congratulate my sis @sydney_sweeney on being nominated for a SAG award and wish her the best of luck.'
It comes after Sydney opened up about how she and Trent had to live in a Holiday Inn for nine months after her parents were declared bankrupt.
She is now a multi-million dollar success story after making it with acting with roles in Anyone But You, The White Lotus and The Handmaid's Tale.
But back before hitting the big time her family found themselves in hard times when her mother, Lisa, a criminal defence lawyer, and her father who worked in hospitality were declared bankrupt.
In 2013 when she was 16, her parents who are now divorced, sold their home in Washington, with the family of four living in a one-bedroom hotel room for months.
Speaking to The Times last week of her tough childhood, she said: 'We lived in the Holiday Inn in Burbank [northwest LA] for eight and a half months but it felt like my entire life.
While in 2019, he shared a throwback selfie of the pair together to voice his pride at her Screen Actors Guild nomination for The Handmaid's Tale
'We were sharing a one-bedroom hotel room, no kitchen, no balcony. A pull-out sofa bed, where my dad and brother slept, my mom and me in the bed…'
Detailing how her and Trent coped at the time, she said: 'My brother and I tried to make the best of it - we would joke around and say we were in The Suite Life of Zack and Cody.
'We'd run around the different hallways and find stairwells and make friends with all the staff and they would make us grilled cheese.'
In a far cry from her beginnings Sydney now boasts an incredible property portfolio after finding her own financial success thanks to her movie and TV work.
She owns a £4.5million Bel Air home and another Tudor-style home in LA that is worth £3.3million.
Sydney then has a £10.2million compound in the Florida Keys as well as several back home in the Pacific Northwest.
She went on to tell The Times that she is also currently looking at places to buy in New York, Texas, Italy and London.

Cherie Blair says Barbara Taylor Bradford was ‘inspiration to me and millions'
Writer and barrister Cherie Blair has described Barbara Taylor Bradford as 'an inspiration to me, and to millions' at a memorial service for the author. The 70-year-old told the PA news agency she 'clicked' with the A Woman Of Substance writer when they first met in the early 2000s in New York. She paid tribute before the service at St Bride's Church in Fleet Street, London, on Thursday, which was attended by about 100 people, dressed in an array of colours, including actors, authors and fans of the novelist. Taylor Bradford died at the age of 91 on November 24 last year following a short illness, 'and was surrounded by loved ones to the very end', a spokeswoman said at the time. Mrs Blair, who is married to former British prime minister Tony Blair, said of the author: 'We're two northern girls of similar backgrounds, and we were friends ever since. 'Barbara was the woman of substance, she was elegant, she was warm, she was intelligent, she was feisty, she was an amazing person and a really good friend. 'Every time she wrote a new book, she would send one to me, but she also sent one to my mum too. 'She was a great novelist because she absorbed knowledge from all around her, she gave back so much, she never forgot her northern roots. 'She was my friend, and she's an inspiration to me, and to millions.' The ceremony began with the theme to the TV adaption of A Woman Of Substance, before a choir sang In Paradisum from Gabriel Faure's Requiem. The choir's performance was followed by a welcome and opening prayer from reverend canon Dr Alison Joyce, who spoke about Taylor Bradford's roots as a journalist at the Yorkshire Evening Post. Actor Liam Neeson, 73, who starred in the Channel 4 adaption of Taylor Bradford's book, also paid tribute to the novelist during the service, in a message read out by actress Jenny Seagrove. Neeson said in his message: 'In 1984, I had the great honour of playing Blackie O'Neill in the television adaptation of Barbara Taylor Bradford's A Woman Of Substance, and again in its sequel, Hold The Dream. 'It was a landmark moment — the first television drama series to reach more than 13.8 million viewers on Britain's Channel 4 — and something we were all incredibly proud of. 'But more than the numbers, it was Barbara's vision, her storytelling, and her fierce dedication to her characters that made the work so special. 'She was a force — elegant, brilliant and unstoppable — and I feel deeply privileged to have been part of bringing her words to life.' Seagrove, 67, who played Emma Harte in the adaption, told PA: 'Barbara championed women before a lot of other people. It's now fashionable to give women a voice, but Barbara fought for strong women. 'She wrote strong women. She was a strong woman.' The actress continued: 'Barbara was a force of nature, she didn't suffer fools, she had great attention to detail, she always had a chuckle, and always saw the funny side of things. 'She was deeply, deeply in love and loved by her husband, it was one of the most extraordinary relationships. 'She loved her dogs, I used to ring up because I love dogs, and we talked about whatever Bichon Frise she'd got at the time. 'She used to say, 'I put my makeup on as a mask, and then I go to battle', she went out there and took on the world, and boy, did she succeed. 'She was a friend, she meant a lot to me, her work changed my life. But more than anything, I'm here because I loved her, and I think probably everybody here was here because they loved her, because she was a remarkably loyal woman. 'If she loved you, she stood by you. That was it.' Also in attendance was TV presenter Fern Britton, 67, who told PA the 'moving, yet rich and warm' ceremony had brought her to tears. She said: 'The books will obviously stand as her legacy. 'But for me, it is seeing her walk into a room with a beautiful suit on, carrying an Hermes bag with an Hermes scarf tied around it and fabulous jewellery and her big smile – that for me, is her legacy.' Taylor Bradford's best known book A Woman Of Substance is a rags-to-riches tale set in the 1900s that follows the life of Yorkshire servant Emma who later heads up a business empire. Other TV adaptations of her books included ITV's Act Of Will starring Elizabeth Hurley and Victoria Tennant, and To Be The Best, a sequel to A Woman Of Substance with Lindsay Wagner and Sir Anthony Hopkins. The former US editor in chief of Elle magazine, Eve Pollard, who is the mother of Claudia Winkleman, told PA she felt her long-time friend had been in the church with her. The 81-year-old said: 'I found the service very moving and very Barbara, that was what was wonderful. 'I think Jenny Seagrove said she's in the room and you more or less felt she was and I said to somebody, 'can't we all go to our memorial services and then die quietly later?' because it was perfect. 'It had everything, it had New York in it and the Yorkshire side of it.' The author was often labelled 'the grand dame of blockbusters', with her books selling more than 91 million copies and having been published in more than 40 languages and in 90 countries. In April it was announced that Vera actress Brenda Blethyn will lead a new Channel 4 adaptation of A Woman Of Substance, playing protagonist Emma.
