Cara proved her glamorous sense of style has not faltered in pregnancy, as she arrived at the exciting event in a stunning grey midi dress.
The frock cut into a chic bardot neckline, which dipped slightly at the chest to tease at her assets, before extending into feminine cold shoulder straps.
Cinching in just below her bust, the dress then hugged her frame all the way to its stylish dropped hem – accentuating her ever-growing bump for all to see.

Keeping comfortable but chic for the big day, the beauty tied her look together with blue velvet mid heels, while Nathan proved to be a gentleman by carrying her bags.
She styled her hair into loose, tousled waves and opted for a sweeping of bronzer and a nude pink lip, to draw attention to her glowing complexion as a mother-to-be as she beamed for cameras.
The brunette was joined at the bash by on/off boyfriend Nathan, who is the father of the baby.
The Essex native kept things casual in a navy polo shirt and camel chinos, to ensure all eyes were kept on his stunning love interest.

First carrying most of the snacks and drinks for Cara, Nathan was then seen sweetly cradling her stomach as they headed inside – proving their bond to be stronger than ever as they approach their due date.
Cara confirmed her pregnancy in May, just weeks after it came to light her romance with Nathan had first come to an end.
At the time she had told OK! magazine: ‘It’s a shame and a sad situation. I know a lot of people will think, well you’re going to have a baby together so just stay together – but we’re not going to do that just to look like the perfect couple.’
However, she and Nathan have since revealed that they are giving romance another try, but are planning to take things much slower than before for the sake of their baby boy.
Cara told Reveal last month: ‘It’s proper dating – if we’d have met like this a year ago, it’s how we would have been.
‘He comes round and helps me sort out stuff with the nursery. He’ll stay for a takeaway and a film, but it’s not at the sleepover stage.’
Cara and Nathan met on Love Island in the summer of 2016, where viewers had watched their romance blossom onscreen.
They went on to the win series, beating the likes of Olivia Buckland and Alex Bowen, as well as Kady McDermott and Scott Thomas, and have subsequently appeared on multiple episodes of The Only Way Is Essex.
