A HUGE 90s pop star was unrecognisable on the red carpet in a floppy blue hat and matching suit.

Singer-turned-actress Billie Piper put a fashionable foot forward as she attended the Elle Style Awards on Tuesday evening.

Billie, 40, co-ordinated her large accessory with an oversized suit in the same shade of blue.

She finished the dramatic look with a big black scarf despite the heatwave currently gripping the country.

In recent years Billie has starred in dramas including Doctor Who and Collateral and previously played the lead role in Secret Diary of a Call Girl.

But before that Billie found fame as a pop star in the late 90s, following the release of her debut single Because We Want To in 1998 when she was just 15.

Billie said: "When I look back at it now I have my own children, it seems unbelievably unsafe. It felt desperate and lonely."
