Daytime talk show darling Tamron Hall stunned at the Angel Ball in New York City on Monday, emceeing the event, which raised money for the Gabrielle's Angel Foundation. 

Tamron stepped out in a draped purple gown with a high neckline, looking like a Grecian goddess. She paired the look with a bejeweled purse and large, eye-catching diamond earrings shaped like a flower. 

The bestselling author was joined by Emily in Paris actor Lucien Laviscount as emcee at the annual event, which was co-founded by songwriter Denise Rich and her daughters, Daniella Rich Kilstock and Ilona Rich Schachter.

Denise did not disappoint on the star-studded night, donning a red Camilla gown with gold designs, cinched at the waist to showcase her toned figure. She wore gold heels to compliment the dress, and her blonde hair was styled to perfection in a blowout. 

Australian brand Camilla also created and designed the stunning décor for the night, with the Cipriani Wall Street venue decked out in bright pink and regal purple. 

The Angel Ball, which is in its 26th year, spotlights individuals who have made significant humanitarian and philanthropic contributions to cancer research.

This year, children's book author Grace Cayre received the honor thanks to her tireless efforts volunteering at cancer centers, raising funds for various cancer charities and organizing creative initiatives to raise awareness around the insidious disease. 

The Ball raised almost three million dollars for the cause, thanks to the slew of stars who turned out to support the event and the live auction. 

The Foundation aims to fund scientists who are focused on finding alternative treatments for patients with leukemia, lymphoma and other blood cancers, as opposed to options like radiotherapy and chemotherapy.

The annual ball aims to raise money for cancer research

It has now raised over $43 million since it began in 1996, becoming one of the largest non-governmental grant sources in blood cancer research. 

Tony Award-winning actress Adrienne Warren performed for the crowd on Monday night, as did legendary rapper Busta Rhymes, who brought the house down with a slew of hits like "All I Do Is Win". 

Auction prizes included an incredible array of vacations, artworks and jewelry; artist Enrique Cabrera's sculpture, "The Golden Apple", sold for a whopping $300,000 on the night.
