The 31-year-old British actress, who sported pink hair and a bag with her name emblazoned across it, posed with the former Fast Show comedian while Hollywood actress Hayek browsed through the clothes.

Dame Edna Everage, currently performing as part of her farewell 'Eat Pray Laugh' tour at the London Palladium, was invited to switch on the extravagant Christmas lights adorning the Stella McCartney Bruton Street store in Mayfair.

Ahead of her lighting duties, Everage joked: "Stella was sent to live with me when she was little to learn about life, and she was always stitching little frocks for her dollies. She made some for me too - I'm not going to say they were my favourites..."

In reference to the fur shawl around her neck, she added: "I know Stella is very seriously into conservation. Don't worry, this is not real fur Stell, this is humanely culled acrylic! It's Australian road kill - purple possum."
