Shanina Shaik puts on a leggy display in a glamorous little black dress at Couture Council lunch

Shanina Shaik traded in catwalking for award presenting at the Couture Council Luncheon in New York City on Wednesday.

The 30-year-old Australian beauty put on a leggy display in a sequin LBD to bestow the Fashion Institute of Technology’s 2021 Couture Council Award for Artistry of Fashion to Wes Gordon, the creative director for Carolina Herrera.

Herrera was in attendance at the posh daytime event held at Cipriani South alongside other stars like Martha Stewart and Real Housewives of New York’s Ramona Singer.

Shaik opted for perennially chic black and stunned in a mini dress embellished with over-sized sequin clusters, a pointed triangle neckline and a large satin bow nipping in her waist. 

The beauty carried a small black leather clutch and added a fun pop of color with pale pink leather pumps. 

She made a statement with her glam and rocked flawless neutral makeup and an extra long snatched high pony tail smoothed into soft waves.
