When she turned up to the White House Correspondents’ Dinner in a shimmering form-fitting gown, it was hard to believe Candice Crawford gave birth just three weeks ago.

The beauty queen was making her first red carpet debut at the weekend after giving birth to son Hawkins on April 9.

The former Miss Missouri seems to have immediately pinged back into shape and was happy to show off the results of her incredible figure.

The blonde beauty flaunted her trim form in an ivory gown embellished with silver sequins as well as fringing on the bust.

The 25-year-old posed at the event, which took place on Saturday, with her Dallas Cowboys quarterback husband Tony Romo, 31.

The couple were also seen with Candice’s Gossip Girl star brother Chace Crawford, who reportedly was present at Hawkins’ birth.

And they chatted to and posed with Modern Family star Jesse Tyler Ferguson.

The evening before Candice had shown off just a hint of her post-baby body in a colour block outfit, before making the big reveal in her show-stopping gown.

The happy pair were seen arriving into Reagan airport in Washington DC on Friday, but Candice covered up her curves in a striped maxi dress.

Proud father Tony released the first photo of little Hawkins to the Dallas Morning News the day after the tot’s birth.

A post on the Dallas Cowboys page read: ‘Congratulations to Tony Romo, proud papa of Hawkins Crawford Romo, born yesterday at 5:30pm. 8 lbs 8 oz.’

Tony’s ex-girlfriend Jessica Simpson, also 31, is due to give birth to her first child with fiancé Eric Johnson any day now.
