Pip Edwards' brush with royalty! Fashion designer sits next to Count Nikolai of Monpezat at Carla Zampatti runway show for Australian Fashion Week - but turns her nose up around the MAFS stars
And the fashion designer had a brush with royalty at the fashion event as she sat near Queen Mary 's nephew Count Nikolai of Denmark.
The 45-year-old was seen chatting to her best mate Jackie O Henderson while sitting just two seats away from Nikolai, 25.
Nikolai, who has launched a modelling career since losing his title in 2022, sat front row at the Carla Zampatti show on day one of the event.
Alongside him was his girlfriend Benedikte Thoustrup, with the pair looking happy together after fielding split rumours late last year.
Pip flaunted her fit figure in a backless halter top that showed off lots of skin as she chatted to guests while seated in the front row.
However the socialite didn't appear to be impressed by the Married At First Sight stars attending the fashion event.
Pip looked the other way as she walked past Adrian Araouzou and Tony Mojanovski after arriving to the show.
She carried a black and white fur jacket as she rushed past the reality stars.
The designer wore her hair in beachy waves and chose a bronzed makeup palette with a nude lipstick.
Meanwhile, Nikolai looked dapper at the event in a navy blue suit paired with a light blue dress shirt and dark brown tie.
His girlfriend Benedikte stunned in a strapless, black peplum dress in a maxi length, along with camel toned heels.
The 24-year-old chose a natural, barely there makeup look and wore her caramel locks down in waves.
Earlier, the Danish It-girl had arrived wearing a beige trench coat that perfectly matched her shoes.
The couple looked relaxed and happy as they sat together watching the show, and exchanged loving looks while posing together before the runway show.
Late last year, the pair were rumoured to have split after Nikolai and Benedikte had not shared to social media any photos of them together for months.
Benedikte, who is the founder of Danish hair beauty company BénéSoie, had posted several glamorous modelling shots to Instagram - and Nikolai had been absent from all of them.
However, it was clear all was well as the genetically blessed couple cuddled up at hottest event on the Aussie fashion calendar.

The natural beauty appeared to have on minimal makeup and shielded her eyes with a pair of oval sunglasses. The actress appeared to be busy taking a call while speaking into the microphone on her wired headphones. The American actress jetted out of Sydney on Sunday The casually chic ensemble was much more subdued than the elaborate, edgy looks Jenna donned during her promotional tour in Australia last week.

Gwendoline announced to the shocked crowd that her villain character, Nevermore Academy headmistress Larissa Weems, would be back from the dead in the second part of season two. 'Did you really think Nevermore would let me go so easily! I was never gone. You just stopped looking,' Gwendoline told the audience while in character. Meanwhile, Jenna wowed onlookers in a daring ensemble which featured a hairy black and white overcoat, a matching shirt, and lace-up high boots. Sporting her signature 'Goth' look for the event, held on Cockatoo Island, Jenna wore her long dark locks out in a 'messy' chic style. 'It's such an honour,' Jenna said about the role, which has brought her global attention. 'Oftentimes, you don't get to revisit your character, so to be able to do it with someone like Wednesday. I feel very, very lucky.' During the promotional event, Burton, 66, revealed how closely he identified with the character of Wednesday, who has her origins in The Addams Family cartoons from the 1930s. 'I love the character,' the director of Beetlejuice and Ed Wood said. 'I agree with everything she says, everything she feels about family, school, psychiatry and society, so that's why we're here in this beautiful place. It's something I really identify with.' Also at the launch were Wednesday's creators and showrunners Alfred Gough and Miles Millar. Wednesday dropped on Netflix with four episodes on August 6, while part II of the series will premiere on September 3.

Lily Collins ditches the platform heels in favour of Birkenstock sandals as she films Emily In Paris season five on location in Venice
Lily Collins is typically spotted wearing a pair of towering chunky platform heels but as she films scenes for fifth season of Emily In Paris in Venice it has appeared she has ditched her killer stilettos. The actress, 36, who stars as the titular character, has headed to Venice, Italy, for the episodes as the series will follow her character's journey to Rome. But as she was filmed walking around Venice and meeting cast members for lunch, Lily was spotted wearing a pair of brown Birkenstock sandals. Wearing a bold red mini dress, Lily's character once again proved she is still every inch the fashionista. The bold outfit featured a puff ball skirt and some sheer long sleeves with a criss cross pattern printed all over. The actress wore matching tights which featured a bold lining on the inside of her legs. The actress, 36, who stars as the titular character, has headed to Venice, Italy , for the episodes as the series will follow her character's journey to Rome. As she enjoyed some food, the actress was shielded her from the blazing sun as they carried an umbrella over her head as Lily walked up the steps. Emily was left with a decision at the end of series four, as she was offered the position of the lead of the Italian Agence Grateau office. Despite falling in love with Paris and the agency, Emily admitted she was tempted by a new life - with a new man - in Rome. Fans will remember Emily and Gabriel's (Lucas Bravo) romance fell apart after they finally tried to make a go of their relationship after he broke off his relationship with Camille. Following a fake pregnancy scandal, Camille revealed she wasn't actually expecting and Emily and Gabriel tried to work out a romantic future. However, it wasn't meant to be for the star-crossed lovers who were unable to work out their differences and she was pushed into the arms of Marcello, after they met on the slopes of Megève, when she was abandoned at the top of a slope by Gabriel. They crossed paths again at a polo match in Paris and they enjoyed a night out together in the city, which lasted until the following morning when he asked her to come and visit him in Rome. Emily followed her heart and travelled to meet Marcello, where she was also tasked with acquiring his family's business by her boss Sylvie. However, Emily was reluctant to mix business with pleasure. The bold outfit featured a puff ball skirt and some sheer long sleeves with a criss cross pattern printed all over The actress wore matching tights which featured a bold lining on the inside of her legs The pair hit a stumbling block when he learned of her plans to try and secure a professional relationship with his family, who owned a luxury cashmere company, but they eventually managed to iron their issues out. At this point, Gabriel had a candid conversation with Alfie (Lucien Laviscount), who urged him to try and win Emily back, despite previously being romantically involved with her himself. But despite dashing to Rome with the hope of reuniting, Emily was nowhere to be seen as she enjoyed her romantic day out with Marcello. Speaking about the upcoming series, Lucas said: 'I think Gabriel realised that he doesn't want to let Emily go so easily, and he might have made a big mistake. 'They certainly had a big fight and a cooling-off period. But I think he realised that by the end of the season, that there's something that he doesn't want to let Emily go. 'I don't know what that means. Doesn't necessarily mean they're going to be together instantly or ever. I don't know, but I think he feels there's unfinished business with the two of them.' However, there is hope for the couple as according to creator Darren Star, the season is not fully moving to Rome. He told Deadline: 'She didn't change her Instagram handle to Emily in Rome. She is working in Rome sometimes. Sylvie's company has an office in Rome. 'Emily's getting that on its feet. I don't necessarily think that it means a permanent — in my mind, it's definitely not a permanent — move to Rome. We're not leaving Paris.' The series is expected to air towards the end of this year, but one of the main characters has revealed they won't be returning. Camille Razat, 31, who plays Camille in the romantic comedy-drama - took to Instagram to reveal the shocking news with an emotional goodbye post after fans fumed at bosses for 'destroying the character'. Camille has played Emily's pal and love rival in the show since the programme hit the streaming service back in 2020. Now, after five years on our screens as Camille, the actress is ready to move on.

'I'm deeply grateful to @starmandarren and the entire team at @netflix and @paramountpics for their trust and for giving me the opportunity to bring Camille to life and leaving the door open for her return, as she will always be a part of Emily In Paris world.
