Brooke Shields pulled out all the stops with an incredible look as she attended the New York City Ballet's 2024 Fall Gala at the David H. Koch Theatre.

Its top half was entirely bejewelled with pearls and other glittering stones in circular patterns. The pearls and stones also embellished her neckline and sleeve hems.
She paired the statement-making dress with sparkling silver ballet flats and simple pearl drop earrings, keeping her usually voluminous brown locks slicked back behind her ears to let the pearlescent look do the talking. A number of subtle gold bracelets and rings encircled her wrists, adding a luxurious tone to the look. But her barely-there nude make-up showed that her dress was meant to be the center of attention for the evening.

Brooke has made it clear just how much she loves finding vintage dresses a new life, as she's opened up her own wardrobe to her daughters, Grier and Rowan Henchy.
Famously, her eldest daughter borrowed her 1998 Golden Globes dress for her prom, looking stunning in the form-fitting strapless red gown.
