Blunt typically brings husband John Krasinski as her date to award shows, but the London-born actress might have opted to bring along her parents as the BAFTAs are in her hometown (BAFTA is an acronym for British Academy of Film and Television Arts—basically the Academy Awards or the Emmys of the U.K.). The awards ceremony is being held tonight in London’s Royal Festival Hall, and Blunt is nominated for Best Actress in a Supporting Role for her performance in Oppenheimer.

Blunt’s dress had cutout details and beading all over and featured dramatic bell sleeves and a train; People reports that she accessorized with a Tiffany & Co. necklace.

In addition to her dressed-to-the-nines parents, Blunt also posed with fellow nominees Emma Stone and Margot Robbie, who are both up for Best Actress in a Leading Role for their performances in Poor Things and Barbie, respectively. Stone wore a bold one-shoulder peach Louis Vuitton gown, and Robbie wore a custom Giorgio Armani Privé silk pink and black velvet gown, which she paired with black opera gloves.
