Katie Holmes never puts a foot out of place when it comes to style, and didn't disappoint on Tuesday night as she stepped out in a gorgeous flowing black and gold dress alongside her glamorous parents Martin and Kathleen to attend the ABT Spring Gala, held at Cipriani 42nd Street.
The Dawson's Creek alum was among the stars attending the special one-night-only event, featuring a curated selection of dancers who will be part of ABT's upcoming 2024 Spring season, including a preview of Wayne McGregor’s Woolf Works ahead of the New York Premiere.
The Gala also honored Academy Award-winning filmmaker Chai Vasarhelyi for her incomparable commitment to artistic excellence and innovation as a filmmaker, as well as her fervent advocacy of classical ballet.
Katie is a regular at the ballet and her passion for the craft has rubbed off on her daughter Suri, 18, who is also a keen performer.

Katie and Suri have an incredibly close bond, and the doting mom has raised her daughter alone in New York City for over a decade, following her split from Tom Cruise.
While Katie is incredibly protective of her daughter, in 2022, Suri was heard singing the opening credits of her film, Alone Together, when she was just 15. She sang a pitch-perfect rendition of Blue Moon, and her mom was more than proud.

"That's the way I direct in general: It's like, 'This is what I think we all want - go do your thing'."

In 2022, Katie gave another rare snippet into her relationship with Suri, telling InStyle: "I love her so much. My biggest goal has always been to nurture her into her individuality. To make sure she is 100 per cent herself and strong, confident, and able. And to know it."
