Giovanni Pernice put on a dapper display at the world premiere of Man and Witch in London on Sunday.
The Strictly Come Dancing professional, 33, who recently came under fire for his controversial teaching methods on the show, was all smiles as he stepped into the spotlight with his girlfriend, Molly Brown.
Molly, 25, cut an elegant figure as she slipped into a navy satin mini dress for the star-studded occasion. Complete with a boat neckline, fitted waist and bell-style mini skirt, the star's sleek ensemble looked divine on her slender silhouette.

Giovanni and Molly, who made their romance official in February, recently took their relationship to the next level by welcoming a puppy into their lives.

The Sicilian-born dancer's future on the beloved BBC ballroom show is currently unknown after reports emerged that Giovanni had quit Strictly Come Dancing in light of misconduct allegations raised against him.
Neither Giovanni nor the BBC have confirmed if the former Strictly champion will be returning as a professional dancer on the show this autumn. The news comes after Giovanni's former dance partner, Amanda Abbington was diagnosed with "mild PTSD" after she quit the show last year.
According to journalist Katie Hind, the Sherlock star commented: "I asked for [our rehearsals] to be recorded, it was me. Giovanni is nasty. He was awful to a few of us, a group of us."
Giovanni's defence
The professional dancer, who captured the hearts of the nation when he won the show in 2022 alongside Rose Ayling-Ellis, has since responded to the claims.
"To my dear fans, you will be as surprised as I am that allegations have been made about my dance teaching methods in the media this week," began Giovanni in a post on Instagram. "Of course, I reject any suggestion of abusive or threatening behaviour, and I look forward to clearing my name.
