She started off her night wearing blue as she looked anything but sad while stepping out to a fashion show on Thursday.
But not content with just one outfit, Catherine Tyldesley stole the spotlight at the Nadine Merabi's collection when she dazzled in a plunging champagne gown.
And the newly-single 29-year-old appeared to be putting her break-up with Sam Witter behind her as she took centre stage in an eye-popping number.

Opening the show and wishing her friend Nadine well, Tyldesley had all eyes on her.
Sending her congratulations to the fashion designer, she tweeted: 'Stunning show @NadineMerabi. You just get better and better my darling. Love you #proud xxx'.
On arrival to the event, the Coronation Street star showed off her trim shape in the royal blue dress and beamed at photographers.
The actress teamed her bold dress with an orange clutch bag and a pair of matching suede heels.

News of Catherine's split from Sam emerged last week.
In addition to being her boyfriend, 22-year-old Sam was also Catherine's personal trainer and business partner, with the pair owning a company together, Dream Partners Limited, and planning to bring out fitness DVDS later this year.
A source told the Daily Mirror: 'They have just grown apart. The age gap was an issue because they want different things.'
