See the difference: Keira Knightley dressed down on Saturday and dressed up for the Olivier awards held at the Grosvenor House Hotel in LondonWhat a difference a day - and an awards ceremony - makes.
With a beanie hat pulled firmly down, bare-faced and wearing a trench coat, Keira Knightley cut a distinctly dressed-down image as she strolled along a London street.
Yet 24 hours later - with hair swept up, make-up in place and a floor-length silk gown clinging to her slender frame - the actress was all red-carpet glamour.
Happy couple: Although she lost out on an award Keira Knightley looked happy and relaxed as she spent time with her boyfriend, actor Rupert Friend 
Look of love: Keira and Rupert were clearly enjoying each other's company at their dinner table at the awardsShe was among a host of stars, including Gillian Anderson, Kim Cattrall and Rachel Weisz, attending last night's Laurence Olivier theatre awards.
Sadly for 24-year-old Miss Knightley, who had been nominated for best supporting actress for her West End debut in The Misanthrope, she lost out to Ruth Wilson for A Streetcar Named Desire.
Miss Weisz was named best actress for her lead role of Blanche DuBois in the same play, beating stars including Miss Anderson, Imelda Staunton and Juliet Stevenson.
