Emily Ratajkowski knows how to steal a scene.

She did just that when she showed up to the third annual King’s Trust Global Gala on Thursday night in New York City, where she dressed to the nines in an incredible champagne gown.

The most notable feature of the form-fitting dress was the deep V-neckline slashed down the middle, which plunged so low, it nearly grazed her belly button. A backless silhouette added to the dress’s sultry appeal, and Ratajkowski tied off the look with an attached scarf that wrapped around her neck and billowed behind her.

For accessories, the My Body author kept things simple, opting for a few diamond-encrusted jewelry pieces in the form of chandelier earrings and a large cocktail ring. She leaned into the Old Hollywood aspect of her outfit through her hair, too, styling her signature dark brown locks in voluminous soft waves swept to one side.

The King’s Trust Global Gala supports the work of the global charity King Charles III established in 1976, previously known as the Prince’s Trust. Last night’s gala marked the first event the King’s Trust has held since it was renamed, following the coronation of the British monarch in May 2023.

Though Charles wasn’t in attendance, he did express his gratitude via a letter read aloud at the event: “It gives me enormous pride and pleasure to be able to celebrate this evening, the first ever King’s Trust event. When I started the trust in 1976, I could never have imagined the reach that the organization would have in the U.K. and in more than 20 countries around the world, or the more than a million brilliant young people we have been able to support.”

Besides Ratajkowski, other celebrities attending the gala included model Irina Shayk, singer and actor Teyana Taylor, model and cookbook author Chrissy Teigen, and stylist Law Roach.
