Ada Nicodemou is an Aussie silver screen icon, and her presence on our televisions is a comforting familiarity that we can’t imagine going without.

When she isn’t charming fans on Home and Away, Ada looks even more divine as she rocks the most incredible looks when she is off duty and attending family and red carpet events.

Ada is often styled by fashion stylist, Donny Galella and she is known for wearing a mix of ready-to-wear, designer and bespoke pieces.

It is appropriate to dub the actor’s style as elegant, refined, sophisticated and a little sweet.

While she is mostly seen donning simple colours, patterns and mini dresses, she isn’t afraid of some frill and milkmaid sleeves.

Also, it would be a mistake not to mention how superb Ada’s makeup looks are, and for that, we can thank her makeup artist Rosemary Saffioti.

Ada’s creamy, bronzed and smoky-eyed beauty looks complement her olive skin tone so well.

But back to the clothes!

Although some of her pieces are custom-made, there are plenty of dresses out there that work perfectly as dupes, and we have found some incredible replicas of her most glorious outfits.

Keep scrolling for a style and shopping delight.
