Sharon Stone, 66, stuns in a dramatic monochrome feathered gown as she accepts Lifetime Achievement award at the Taormina Film Festival

Sharon Stone put on another stunning show on Friday night as she accepted the prestigious Gold Cariddi Lifetime Achievement Award at the Taormina Film Festival.

The 66-year-old actress wore an extravagant dress with a monochrome print and feathered fringe along the neckline and hem.

The long dress was an homage to her famous scene from Basic Instinct, in which the then 32-year-old wore a white minidress against a dark background.

The timeless beauty kept her accessories minimal, wearing no jewelry and her blonde locks were combed back.

Sharon beamed as she received the award from Elvira Amata, Sicily’s Councillor for Tourism.

Speaking to Variety , Sharon explained that the film business has changed dramatically due to the increasing demand for money. But now the world is changing again, moving away from huge blockbusters and towards “smaller, more relevant films.”

She also spoke about the increased involvement of women in the filmmaking process: ‘I have to say now that women are writing, producing and increasingly involved in filmmaking. Films are less and less about men writing about their fantasies of what women are like, and actors are asked to act out the male fantasy. And critics are less and less asked to live out the male fantasy.

Earlier that day, Sharon looked stunning as she hit the festival’s red carpet wearing a sheer, sparkly dress layered with a mini skirt.

She exuded elegance in the glittering dress and flaunted her youthful look as she posed at the event.

Sharon showed off her gorgeous smile and added a touch of pink lip gloss to complete her look.

The icon paired her glamorous outfit with statement gold earrings and added silver high heels to elevate her figure.

The actress appeared to be in high spirits as she posed for photos and blew kisses to the crowd at the exclusive event.

This comes after Sharon recreated her iconic interrogation scene from the erotic classic Basic Instinct in a sexy lingerie shoot.

The actress shared a stunning photo on Instagram of herself wearing red lace lingerie, 32 years after she played the sexy assassin Catherine Tramell.

The famous interrogation scene in Basic Instinct showed Sharon’s character Catherine being questioned by the police, including Michael Douglas.

As Catherine peppers them with questions, she distracts them by spreading her legs and crossing them again, confusing the men as she was not wearing any underwear at the time.

The scene was highly controversial at the time, but is now considered one of the most infamous in film history.

And the actress proudly showed off her incredible figure in the sexy Bloomers Intimate lingerie, posing with her legs crossed in an ode to the legendary scene.

Despite the moment making Sharon an overnight sensation, the Academy Award nominee has maintained in the past that she was “tricked” into exposing herself for the cameras.

In her memoir The Beauty of Living Twice, Sharon described angrily slapping her director Paul Verhoeven and walking out of a preview of the erotic thriller after discovering that his assurances that the film would not make it to screens had been a lie and that audiences could watch — as she put it — “all the way to Nebraska.”

Verhoeven has strongly denied her claims that she was surprised by the crossed-legged scene.

He said, ‘Every actress knows what she’s going to see if you ask her to take off her underwear and point the camera at it.’

But the Hollywood veteran is also adamant that she has no regrets about making the film.

“Regrets are like farts, you can’t get them back. Once they’re out, they stink and they’re gone,” she joked earlier.

Sharon recently claimed in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter that the $18 million she earned in more than two decades in the film industry went up in smoke during the years she was unable to work due to brain damage from the stroke.

The actress, who controversially claimed that Kevin Spacey’s banishment from Hollywood was partly motivated by homophobia, attributed her loss of millions to those around her mismanaging her money as she struggled to regain basic functions, such as the ability to read, which she lost for “a few years.”

Stone said it took her a total of seven years to recover from the effects of the life-threatening stroke. Doctors estimate her chance of survival is only one in 100.

People have taken advantage of me because of that [recovery] “I had saved $18 million from all my success, but when I got back into my bank account, it was all gone.”

She described the surreal feeling she had once she became competent enough to manage her finances.

“My refrigerator, my phone, everything was registered to other people,” she revealed.

She then clarified, “I had zero money.”
