Greta Grewig and her partner Noah Baumbach stepped out in style for the Albie Awards in New York City on Thursday evening.

Greta completed the glittering look with a suede gold bag and smiled as she arrived in the evening.
The event, which honors people who have dedicated their lives to justice, is named after Judge Albie Sachs, a lawyer and former judge who was imprisoned for his fight to end apartheid in South Africa.
After posing for photos, the pair – who have been dating since 2011 – were seen socializing with other A-Listers as the festivities began.
