The Mad Men star plays Patti St. George in the period drama, the elegant American mother of characters Nan and Jinny, who is working to try and leave her husband Colonel Tracy St. George.

The pair were joined by their young co-stars Imogen Waterhouse, Kristine Froseth, Josie Totah, Aubri Ibrag and Alisha Boe.

Kristine, who plays lead role Nan St. George, commanded attention in a very quirky and eye-catching black co-ord, made up of layers of sheer striped fabric.

Her eccentric ensemble exposed the Looking for Alaska star’s toned midriff, while she added even more drama to her look with bold graphic winged eyeliner.

She cosied up to her onscreen love interests Matthew Broome and Guy Remmers, posing for a playful snap together to poke fun at their ongoing love triangle.

Matthew, who plays the charming Guy Thwarte, looked as handsome as ever in a stylish grey tailored jacket over a black vest and high-waisted trousers.

While Guy, who stars as the Duke of Tintagel and Kristine’s new husband, Theo, was typically dashing in a brown leather blazer and matching trousers.

But Alisha ensured that all eyes were on her as she flaunted her jaw-dropping figure in the most daring look of the night.

The actress, who plays Conchita Closson, put on a very busty display in a striking black satin gown, that plunged almost to her belly button.

The sultry look also boasted an entirely backless design and side cutouts to flash even more skin, and a sheer lace skirt with a thigh-high slit to display her long legs. 

Aubri, who stars as Lizzy Elmsworth in the show, channelled the late 1990s and early 2000s for the premiere, slipping into a strapless black tube dress.

She accessorised with a classic Y2K staple in a chunky statement belt and slicked her hair up into a dramatically high ponytail on top of her head.

While Mabel Elmsworth actress, Josie, went in the opposite direction, slipping into a floating white minidress, made up of layers of semi-sheer intricate lace.

Imogen looked edgy in a black satin corset and baggy draped Loewe trousers, teamed with a pair of sheer evening gloves.

The younger sister of musician and model Suki Waterhouse plays the role of Jinny St. George in the series.

While newcomer to the show for its second season in the role of Hector Robinson, Jacob Ifan, cut a dapper figure in a chocolate brown suit.

The cast also includes Josh Dylan, Barney Fishwick and star of the recent Wes Anderson flick, The Phoenician Scheme, Mia Threapleton.

The historical drama is set in the 1870s and follows a group of young daughters of the American nouveau riche who head to London for debutante season in the hope of finding husbands.

In an interview with Vanity Fair this week, Leighton spoke about joining the series and her character, Nell, the biological mother of Nan.

She admitted: ‘Her advice isn’t necessarily advice I would give. The way she conducts herself or how she enters any given situation—in particular towards the end of the series—isn’t what I would do. 

‘But I am living in this time period. I kept on going back to thinking about my own life, my own children, and being a mother.

‘I think that it’s universal and timeless to have an understanding about all of humanity and a mother’s deep, unbreakable love for their children.’

She added: ‘I just love that [the show] is exploring it for these women. I think Jinny’s storyline is one of the most accurate and heartbreaking depictions of abuse I’ve seen. 

‘The way they carried out that storyline in the first season and in this one is unbelievable.’
