Profile: She owes it all to that dress

Elizabeth Hurley shot to fame when, on the arm of Hugh Grant, she wore a plunging black Versace dress held together with gold safety pins to the premiere of Four Weddings and a Funeral.

She won her first modelling job at the age of 29 with cosmetics firm Estée Lauder and remains its “spokesmodel”.

The actress, who has appeared in films including the Austin Powers series and Bedazzled – as well as TV hit Gossip Girl – has also launched her own beachwear range.

In 2002, she began a relationship with businessman Arun Nayar. They married in 2007, but split last year. She is now engaged to Australian cricket hero Shane Warne.
