Bar Refaeli was the epitome of elegance in a gold gown as she graced the Nuovo IMAIE Award’s red carpet on the penultimate day of the 81st Venice International Film Festival on Friday.
The Israeli model, 39, boosted her jaw-dropping physique in the long-sleeve number which perfectly hugged her figure and featured draped details on the dress with a slightly cinched waist.
Enhancing her endless legs, the maxi gown presented a semi-sheer skirt, which she teamed with strappy black sandal heels.
The elegant garment was completed with a dazzling set of diamond jewellery including an eye-catching chunky chain with a purple stone pendant.
The TV host also sported elaborated sparkling earrings, while flaunting a very natural make-up showing off her looks.
