The 24-year-old kept her look classic, going for bold red lipstick and with her dark hair pulled into an up-do. 

The Melbourne-born stunner mingled with VIPs including Michelle Rodriguez, Sienna Miller, Gigi Hadid, Kendall Jenner, Karlie Kloss, Dita Von Teese, Marion Cotillard and Paris Hilton. 

Shanina cuddled up to the American heiress inside the glamorous event, leaning her head on the blonde as they posed for a photo together.

Look lovely in lace like Shanina

Let's face it. This season skin is in, as Shanina Shaik knows all too well. The Australian beauty posed away on the amfAR gala red carpet in a lace halterneck gown by Philipp Plein.

The sexy sheer panels showed just enough to keep them guessing while the snug silhouette highlighted her enviable figure.

And who can blame the supermodel for choosing to wear a piece by the well known German designer? His Fal 2015 collection included almost all monochrome looks in sexy cutouts and luxe furs. Shop the current line at Luisa Via Roma (click right).
