James Bond 007's former Bond Girls on the red carpet at Skyfall premiere


The spy will always love them: 007's former sidekicks still know how to make an impact on the red carpet at Skyfall premiere


They might have been replaced by younger models, but once a Bond girl, always a Bond girl.
Former Bond stars Maryam d'Abo, Shirley Eaton, Eunice Gayson and Caterina Murino, once the object of every teenage boy's desire, hit the red carpet at Tuesday night's Skyfall premiere.
Not to be upstaged by current stars Berenice Marlohe and Naomie Harris, the original Bond girls made sure that they stood out from the crowd.

Shirley, now 75, who starred as Jill Masterson opposite Sean Connery in the iconic 1964 Bond film Goldfinger, wore gold to the premiere in homage to her role.
The British actress may not have been the female lead in the film, but she has gone down in history after being suffocated by being painted head to toe in gold.
The actress proved that she's still got the star quality of a Bond girl, wearing her trademark blonde hair tied back and adding a gold sash to her dress.

British actress Maryam, who starred in the 1987 film The Living Daylights as cellist Karo Milovky, also went all out for the Skyfall premiere.
The 51-year-old wore a floor-length sequined gown paired with a gold clutch and a warm furry coat over the top.
The actress, who starred opposite Timothy Dalton, didn't look a million miles away from her 27-year-old self as she appeared in the much loved film.
Eunice, now 84, who starred in both Dr No and From Russia With Love as Sean Connery's girlfriend wore a striking purple outfit on the red carpet.

More recent Bond girls also showed up to see the new film, including Casino Royale's Caterina Murino, who starred opposite Daniel Craig in 2006.
The Italian actress wore an eye-catching floor-length gold gown, looking sultry with her jet black hair worn wavy over one shoulder and a splash of deep red lipstick.
The current Bond girls also went all out for the premiere at the Royal Opera House, not to be outdone by their predecessors.
Berenice wore a show-stopping ruffled red Vivienne Westwood gown while Naomie Harris looked stylish in a Marios Schwab dress.
