Be a green queen in a lace dress like Catherine

Catherine Zeta-Jones looked sensational at the New York City Dance Alliance Foundation's Bright Lights Shining Stars Gala wearing a green off-the-shoulder lace dress teamed with black heels and a matching clutch bag, as she took to the red carpet alongside hubby Michael Douglas.

We love this dress of Catherine, the emerald hue compliments her skin tone and raven locks perfectly; meanwhile the universally flattering fit-and-flare shape shows off her hourglass figure.

Catherine’s dress is by Monique Lhuillier, known for her show-stopping red carpet gowns the celeb set love, as well as bridal wear. The bad news is this dress is now sold out, but the good news is we’ve sourced some fab alternatives which are all just a fraction of the would-be cost of Catherine's.

The event is the body's annual fundraiser with dancer-choreographer Debbie Allen, who is the Foundation's 2015 Ambassador For The Arts, feted as the guest of honour.

The 65-year-old wore an eye-catching white blouse with voluminous sleeves over a long black dress, belted at her waist.

She was also a member of President Obama's Committee On The Arts And Humanities and her Debbie Allen Dance Academy is a non-profit organization that offers lessons to students ages four and up.

She was joined by her actress sister Phylicia Rashad, 67, in a dark pink silk coat dress, black trousers and black shoes. 

Empire star Raven-Symoné opted for an all black ensemble with her elaborate blonde updo peeking out from under the hood of her jacket. 

The 29-year-old teamed it with a skirt with an asymmetric hemline that was knee length at the front, showing off her heavy black boots, and skimmed the floor at the back.

Raven and Debbie worked together in 2013 when the Princess Diaries star was a guest performer at the December 9 performance of Debbie's dance-theater piece, The Hot Chocolate Nutcracker, at UCLA's Royce Hall.

The Foundation's star-studded evening of song and dance included the Syncopated Ladies routine from So You Think You Can Dance along with excerpts from Fame, Sweet Charity and West Side Story.
