Last night, the Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF) transformed The Glasshouse in New York City into a rose-scented wonderland for their annual Hot Pink Party. The venue bloomed with fragrant blossoms at every turn, signature rosy cocktails flowed freely, and one attendee captivated all in a breathtaking Giambattista Valli masterpiece - its train adorned with ethereal silk and tulle rosettes that unquestionably crowned it the evening's most magnificent ensemble. The spectacular gala shattered previous fundraising records, generating an impressive $11 million to fuel the groundbreaking work of BCRF's worldwide network of 260 researchers dedicated to pioneering transformative breast cancer breakthroughs.

Elizabeth Hurley, Global Ambassador of The Estée Lauder Companies' Breast Cancer Campaign, presided over the evening draped in botanical splendor - her exquisite gown entirely embellished with shimmering baby pink floral embroidery. The Austin Powers luminary elevated her ensemble with molten rose-gold stilettos that brilliantly showcased her sculpted legs. Her adornments spoke of refined elegance: a substantial diamond cuff encircled her wrist while cascading silver earrings caught the light with every graceful movement of her head.
