Sharon Stone looked nothing short of sensational Friday night as she attended the National Women’s History Museum’s signature Women Making History Awards Gala.
The 65-year-old actress sparkled in a striking cream and gold dress as she graced the red carpet at the glitzy event at The Schuyler at Washington’s Hamilton Hotel.
Sharon, who was an honoree at the awards, looked cheerful as she posed for some snaps.
Her fitted cream dress had long sleeves and a touch of gold diamond detailing around the midriff that gave the illusion of a cinched waist.
The Basic Instinct star paired her dress with a gold and patterned statement clutch.

Her blonde locks were pinned up into an elegant evening updo as she emphasized her features with a radiant makeup palette.
At one point, Sharon smiled dazzlingly as she posed next to comedian Zarna Garg.
Sharon’s appearance comes days after she revealed she made $13.5 million less than Michael Douglas in her breakthrough film, 1992’s Basic Instinct.
Michael Douglas made $14 million. Now I was new. I was new and he was a very big star,” she revealed at the New York Women In Film & Television’s 43rd annual Muse Awards luncheon.
Stone – who claims she lost half her money in a banking scandal – only made $500,000 from the film.
“We should be thinking a lot more about what women can do,” Stone told the packed ballroom.
Speaking of her early career, she said, “If I went on set, there would be 300 men, and my hair and makeup and dressers were men, when I did sex scenes.” It was all men and me. And sometimes I could ask the cloakroom manager, who might be a woman, if she wouldn’t mind staying on set while I did that.’
“Well, things have changed, and there are women in the movie now, and I’m really grateful,” she added.

At the same event, the Sliver star opened up about the tragic death of her brother Patrick, 57, just two years after the death of her little cousin River.
She spoke to DailyMail about it at the event, saying, “It’s a lot, the impact is just devastating.”
Speaking about her grieving process, the actress admitted that she still struggles to come to terms with the heartbreaking losses, saying, “I just try to take each day as it comes. I just have to try to understand.’
The actress noted that she has “worked a lot with death” in her role as an AIDS ambassador, but confided that the impact the losses of her brother and cousin have had on her is still unbearable.
“Because I’ve worked with AIDS for so long, I’ve worked with death a lot, but the impact is just devastating,” she shared. “I just try to take each day as it comes.”
