She pulled out all the stops to attend the GQ Men Of The Year Awards 2016 at London's Tate Modern on Tuesday night.

But modern day feminist Amy Schumer made the perfect funny speech when she received the Woman Of The Year accolade at the star-studded event.

The 35-year-old took to the stage in her beautiful black one-shoulder dress and joked: "Finally we are celebrating men."

She added: "I thought I was Model Of The Year so my speech doesn't make sense.

"This time I'll just say thank you. Next year won't be so good for me. I'll be outside begging to come in. It's so different here. You say the C-word like it's no big deal, I love it."

Amy looked the picture of elegance in her above the knee number, which was given a fashionable twist thanks to its one-shoulder neckline.

She completed her attire with a simple black clutch bag and a pair of classic black heels.

The American comedienne wore her blonde locks pulled back in a bun and opted for a nude lip and heavy black kohl lining her eyes.

Amy was accompanied by her boyfriend Ben Hanisch at the event, and the pair looked loved-up as they posed together.
