Gala host: Vivica A. Fox hosted the annual Femmy Gala for the intimate apparel organisation, the Underfashion Club, on Tuesday in New York City
It was a night in which underwear was on everyone's minds.
But
Vivica A. Fox seemed to have misunderstood the memo - arriving to host
the industry's annual gala rather visibly missing her bra.
The
50-year-old Celebrity Apprentice contestant had certainly made a huge
effort, looking fabulous in her clinging sheer gown at the Underfashion
Club on Tuesday.
With or without her undergarments, Vivica was stunning in the mesh and silver-sequin creation at the Femmy Gala, held at Manhattan's Cipriani Restaurant.
The actress' dark hair was piled high on her head in an elegant bun, pulled-back severely from her forehead to highlight dangling and sparkling earrings.
Vivica's makeup was perfect - possibly thanks to some on-the-carpet touch-ups - and highlighted her prominent cheekbones.
Something missing: Despite the underwear theme of the night, the 50-year-old actress seemed to be missing some undergarments
Bra-less: Thanks to a see-through top, Vivica's breasts were quite visible - while her bra was not
As for Vivica's dress, it was impossible to miss, covered from shoulder to floor in silver sequins.
While the fabric seemed solid from the waist down, the sequins broke up into floral patterns over mesh at the bodice.
Red-pink and green jewelled highlights were dotted throughout the silver.
It was thanks to the mesh that Independence Day star Vivica's bra-less state was evident: a clear outline of her unfettered chest was visible.
Glamour: Underwear or not, Vivica's silver-sequined dress was beautiful
Dressy: Vivica was rather formal for the event, held at Cipriani, with her hair in a severe up-do
Any other undergarments were hidden by the gown and therefore remained a mystery.
The cause of the night, the annual Femmy Gala, was a fundraising event meant to fund the Underfashion Club's various charitable endeavours.
Vivica attended as the group's celebrity host.
After Tuesday night's Celebrity Apprentice episode, a little glamour and high society might have been welcome to Vivica.
Touch-up: The beautiful makeup worn by Vivica needed a quick touch-up while she was on the red carpet
A little help: At least one person at the event was prepared to help out
The episode saw her engaging in all-out war against co-competitor Kenya Moore.
Although there had been bad blood between the competitors for some time, the most recent fight inspired Donald Trump to declare their argument 'a new low.'
The standard in-fighting came after a failed challenge - this one to create a photobomb campaign for King's Hawaiian bread - got personal when Kenya charged Vivica with having emotional issues.
'This menopause is killing me. I can't think straight. I'm acting like a damn fool half the time. 50 just isn't sexy,' read a tweet posted to Vivica's account, used as evidence of instability by Kenya.
Nice change: Compared to Tuesday night - when Vivica fought with Kenya Moore on Celebrity Apprentice - the underwear event seemed very sophisticated
'I never tweeted that!' Vivica insisted when the message was read aloud in the boardroom.
Instead, Kenya was accused of stealing Vivica's phone and planting the offending message.
Kenya maintained her innocence but was sent home anyway for being the losing team's project manager.
'I could not care less. Bounce,' Vivica said to Kenya as the latter left.
