Princess Charlene of Monaco oozed glamour at the 2024 World Rugby Awards ceremony on Sunday evening.
The former Olympian swimmer, 46, looked sensational as she posed up a storm on the red carpet at the Sporting Monte-Carlo complex in Monaco.
She wowed in a long-sleeved, floor-length satin black gown which featured a diamond encrusted bustline.
Adding even more glitz, the beauty donned shimmering diamond earrings and a satin clutch bag.
Adding to her Old Hollywood-esque look, the mother-of-two styled her blonde locks into a chic updo.
Charlene posed for a slew of snaps with Alan Gilpin, CEO of World Rugby and former English rugby union fullback Jonathan Webb.
England and Harlequins full-back Ellie Kildunne won World Rugby’s women’s player of the year award, while South Africa forward Pieter-Steph du Toit claimed the men’s award for a second time at the awards.
It comes after Charlene looked effortlessly elegant in a navy gown as she attended a lavish gala to celebrate National Monaco Day with her husband Prince Albert last week.

She added a touch of glitz to her ensemble with a pair of diamond earrings and highlighted her radiant features with a smattering of glamorous makeup.
Before heading into the gala, Charlene accepted a bouquet of red-and-white roses from a young royal fan and posed for photos with her husband and other members of the Royal Household.
Joining Charlene and Albert, 66, at the annual event was the Prince’s sister, Princess Caroline of Hanover, 67, who attended the occasion alongside her daughter, Princess Alexandra of Hanover, 25.
Looking typically smart, Albert sported a traditional ensemble with a fitted black jacket and navy trousers.
Princess Caroline – Albert’s older sister – commanded attention in a sequined blue gown, while her daughter, Alexandra opted for a sleeveless burgundy dress.
National Monaco Day is also known as The Sovereign Prince’s Day, and the date of the celebration is chosen by the reigning Prince. Traditionally, the Princes chose the day of the saint they are named after.
But when Prince Albert inherited the title, he decided to choose the same day as his father rather than the day of Saint Albert, which would have been November 15.

It is typically celebrated with fireworks over the harbour the evening before, and a mass in Monte Carlo the next morning.
Earlier in the day, Prince Jacques and Princess Gabriella of Monaco sorely tested their parents’ patience as they took to the balcony to mark the country’s National Day.
Princess Charlene had earlier begun Monaco’s important day with a mass in the cathedral.
She later took to the balcony of the Monaco Palace in Monte Carlo with Albert and her mini-me twins, Jacques and Gabriella, nine, for the army parade.
The beaming royals waved to crowds, with Jacques looking smart in uniform and Gabriella looking adorable in a bright blue coat, reflecting her mother’s vibrant look.
But later on, and clearly getting tired of the parade, the twins put on a series of naughty antics that rivalled the UK’s Prince Louis, who can famously get cheeky during public events.
As they watched on from the balcony, both Jacques and Gabriella looked bored at the display, resting their faces on their hands.
In one picture, cheeky Jacques seemed to be shouting down below and making fists, while his twin sister looked fed-up.

Accompanied by Princesses Caroline of Hanover, 67, and Stephanie, 59, Charlene looked radiant for the occasion.
The mother-of-two donned a two-piece lilac suit, believed to be custom-made from Louis Vuitton, adding a stylish fascinator and black pumps.
Jacques and Gabriella meanwhile wore the Order of Grimaldi – an honour they were given at their baptisms.
The mass marked the first in a series of official events, followed by a ceremony awarding medals and a military parade.
Members of the honor guard arrived outside Monaco’s Cathedral to mark the event, with members of the clergy joining in front.
