She’s been seen out and about recently making questionable fashion choices, but Tamara Ecclestone cleaned up her style act as she joined Elton John at this anual Grey Goose Ball.
The socialite made sure all eyes were on her as she stepped out onto the red carpet wearing white column gown that clung to her every curve.
She posed confidently, gazing straight at waiting photographers, who may have found it hard to gaze above her chin-level due to the daring cut of her dress.

Charitable side: Tamara did her best for Elton John, bidding on a piece of jewellery only to donate it back
The 28-year old later showed off her charitable side when she bought an exclusive piece of Karun Kirac jewellery for £100,000 – and then donated it back to the auction so it could be sold again.
Second time around it fetched £22,000, which will go towards the Elton John Aids Foundation.
Meanwhile, Elizabeth Hurley also attended the high-profile charity ball in a jaw-dropping outfit that blended leopard print and sequins.
The bronze gown featured two daring thigh-high splits, which, along with white jeans, is one of Ms. Hurley’s signature looks.

Liz, 47, was escorted to the star-studded event by her partner, cricketer Shane Warne.
The 43-year old Australian looked just as polished as his brunette girlfriend, and wore a smart dinner suit and bow tie.
His hair was neatly styled to the side, which highlighted his piercing green eyes.

They were joined on the blue carpet by
David Furnish, whose husband was throwing the event to fundraise for his
charity, the Elton John AIDS Foundation.
David, 50, looked relaxed and happy in the
company of his old friends, who were no doubt quick to congratulate him
on the news he is to become a father for the second time.
He and Elton are said to be expecting a brother or sister for their son, Zachary, who was born to them by surrogate.

The event was hosted by actor Kevin Spacey, who was seen looking dapper in a dinner suit on the blue carpet.
The actor had the guests in stitches, as he used his time on stage to show off some of his impersonation skills, mimicking the voices of President Clinton and Morgan Freeman.
He quipped: ‘The only problem with Morgan Freeman hosting this event is that it
would roll on for three hours as everything he says is like poetry. He could
read the instructions of a flat pack and make it sound like poetry.’

Winter Belle: Yasmin Le Bon showed off her model looks in a lace icy blue gown
Model figure: Amber Le Bon sizzled in a revealing backless dress that showed off her great physique
Other guests included mother and daughter duo Yasmin and Amber Le Bon, who both put their most fashionable foot forward.
Yasmin looked every inch the Winter Belle of the Ball, keeping to the seasonal theme by wearing an ice blue gown that feature lace embroidery.
She teamed up the eye-catching dress with a stylish pearl necklace as she kept her make-up simple.
Daughter Amber opted for a backless sequined black gown, showing off every inch of her model figure as she seductively gazed into the awaiting photographer’s lens.Â
Israeli fashion TV presenter Hofit Golan looked pretty in a floral A-line dress with an outer layer made of black net by Dolce and Gabbana.
Blue beauties: Charlotte Ritchie and Eliza Doolittle both opted for blue gowns… in very different styles
Happy couple: David Hasslehoff and Hayley Roberts were both at the party, which was thrown to raise money for charity
Flamboyant friends: Graham Norton and his guest both wore jazzy ensembles to charity ball
Fresh Meat actress Charlotte Richie and singer Eliza Doolittle both opted for blue dresses, which matched nicely with the blue carpet that had been laid out especially for the celebrity arrivals.
However, while Charlotte looked demure in her pretty lace dress, Eliza decided on an outfit that was far more daring.
Her gown was made of rings of sheer and opaque fabric, accessorized with tassles.
The twenty-four year old was clearly pleased to be having a night off from working on her new album.
Graham Norton also chose to wear his best finery, and was seen in a beaded suit jacket.
Similarly, his plus one for the evening wore a paisley pocket handkerchief and a clashing floral print bow tie.
David Hasslehoff and his girlfriend Hayley Roberts decided against flaunting formal wear conventions and stuck to a dinner suit and demure black dress respectively.
Designer Giles Deacon, actor Kevin Spacey, 53, and Jamiroquai singer Jay Kay also stuck to tradition and wore neat dinner suits with bow ties.
However, JLS singer Aston Merrygold
decided to go a bit mad and wear red shoes, which were a shocking
contrast compared to his black velvet suit.
