Jennifer Aniston decided to switch things up on the red carpet by choosing a stunning white Burberry gown instead of her usual black attire. The dress, which featured a low-cut design, a thigh-high slit, and an open back, accentuated her figure and showed off plenty of leg and decolletage. The 43-year-old actress wore this eye-catching dress to honor Shirley MacLaine with an AFI Life Achievement Award.

Prior to the event, Aniston visited a spa, and her radiant complexion and perma-tan made her glow even more as she mingled with fellow celebrities such as Meryl Streep and Melanie Griffith. Many famous Hollywood stars attended the black tie gala at Sony Pictures Studios in Culver City, where Meryl Streep presented MacLaine with the prestigious American Film Institute’s 40th Life Achievement Award. The evening included speeches from past award recipients like Morgan Freeman, Warren Beatty, and Julia Roberts, while guests enjoyed salmon and white wine. It is clear that Jennifer stood out amongst the glamorous crowd, winning the prize for the most glamorous gown.

Young Hollywood actresses Dakota Fanning and Mena Suvari graced the red carpet in exquisite full-length gowns, exuding elegance and glamour.

Gathering of kin: Present was Beatty’s brother, Warren Beatty, along with the company of Morgan Freeman, a dear friend.

Director Steven Spielberg was seen standing up as he was introduced at the AFI Life Achievement Award, which was held to honor actress Shirley MacLaine. The event saw many celebrities in attendance, including Elizabeth McGovern from Downton Abbey. McGovern looked stunning in a beautiful white lace dress and white peep toe pumps. On the other hand, Melanie Griffith’s outfit seemed a bit underwhelming, as she opted for a more business-like dress and cropped jacket. However, Katherine Heigl from the movie Knocked Up took the glamour to another level with her daring black gown. The dress had a thigh-high slit, which added a touch of allure. Heigl’s floor-length attire also had intricate gold beading on the sides and straps, which added to its appeal. For those who couldn’t attend the event, don’t worry! It will be broadcast on TV Land on Sunday, June 24.

Famous celebrities like Melanie Griffith and Claire Pfister were present to join in the festivities.
