Naomi Watts attended the 2023 Tribeca Ball in New York City on Tuesday, taking a minimalist approach to dressing.
The actress wore a sleeveless black dress with a low V-neckline and an asymmetrical skirt hem from Dries Van Noten. She coordinated the look with black ankle-strap heeled sandals and accessorized her look with diamond flower-shaped earrings by Van Cleef & Arpels.
To create her look for the event, the actress worked with stylist Jeanann Williams, who also works with Monica Barbaro, Bette Middler and Mariana Treviño.
