Sarah Jessica Parker wins best-dressed at NYC GalaGilbert Carrasquillo

Sarah Jessica Parker looked incredible in a black lacy midi dress for the New York City Charity Gala last night (21 October).

The And Just Like That actress is regularly seen on the red carpet in stand-out, colourful ensembles, but this time, Sarah opted for a beautiful monochrome look that felt sexy and demure in the best way.

Featuring a flattering low-cut neckline, which prominently showed off the star's décolleté area, the 59-year-old actress showed us why we should embrace this neckline - whatever our age.

Good Housekeeping's Beauty Editor Fleur Fruzza shares with us why we need to take extra care of that delicate area of our bodies and the must-have product you need to flaunt a low-neckline outfit with confidence from now on.

She says: "Skin on the décolleté is thinner than elsewhere, so it needs to be paid extra attention. This Trinny London formula has been developed with that in mind - packed with peptides and a magical-sounding Japanese plant extract that effectively 'glues' the epidermis and dermis together to reduce slackening of the skin."

The neckline wasn't the only detail we loved, the figure-hugging belt and the matching sheer-lace shawl, made this outfit the perfect example of pared-back drama.

Our Fashion Director Amanda Marcantonio also reveals why sheer sleeves are a great way to embrace that sexy allure, without wearing something too revealing.

She says: "Boudoir black lace and sheer sleeves always look chic and are subtly suggestive without feeling too exposed. Reveal and conceal upper arms in see-through gauzy fabric will add a playful peek-a-boo element to an all-black ensemble. I think it's the modern way do sexy this season.”

Also, seen looking glamorous on the red carpet was her And Just Like That co-stars and former Sex and the City actresses' Kristin Davis and Cynthia Nixon too.
