Daisy Ridley looks chic in a white lace dress as she heads to Chiltern Firehouse for Young Woman and the Sea film screening afterparty


Daisy Ridley looked chic as she headed to Chiltern Firehouse for the Young Woman and the Sea film screening afterparty on Wednesday night.

The star, who plays legendary swimmer Gertrude 'Trudy' Ederle in the film, beamed in snaps as she gelled her hair back across her head and tucked the brunette locks behind her ears. Daisy was trained by an Olympic silver medalist named Siobhan-Marie O'Connor to more authentically portray Trudy Ederle in Joachim Rønning's biopic, which hits limited UK/US theatres this Friday. The Ophelia star spoke about working on the feature during an interview with The Hollywood Reporter and stated that her previous action-film training did not necessarily prepare her for extensive periods of swimming.
