Olivia also modelled a lace and leather bustier and a single-strapped fishnet dress over a black bra and pants in front of a red curtain.

Fenty captioned the post: “’Fit for a queen. Lace & leather looks just right for an iron throne. Cop that new before it’s gone.”

The actress, who has over 300,000 followers on Instagram, took to the social media platform to share her delight about appearing in the campaign.

In the comments section, “Bridgerton” star Nicola Coughlan dropped a few fire emojis, while Chatty Man host Alan Carr wrote “Phwooar!!!”

Fans of House of the Dragon have admitted they are switching allegiances to “Team Green” after seeing the campaign.

Olivia recently opened up about her mental health and revealed that she suffered a “full mental breakdown” at age 22 in 2016, while filming Thoroughbreds and Ready Player One back to back.

The House of the Dragon star began experiencing increased isolation and depression while working on Bates Motel a few years earlier.

It came at a time when she was living in Vancouver and struggled to socialise with people during her downtime as she was under the legal drinking age.

“It was bad, bad. Awful, actually,” Olivia told Observer Magazine.

“It was a big old lovely cocktail. Being homesick and not knowing it, having not stopped since I was 18, being on my own for large swathes of time.”

She revealed that she was “very good at hiding” her depression, but her condition worsened in 2016 when Donald Trump became president.

Three years later, in 2019, her incessant, persistent and anxious thoughts started to settle down, and she now feels “quite content, for the first time in years.”

Olivia Cooke plays Queen Alicent Hightower in House of the Dragon, which airs Sunday on HBO.
