She was being honoured for her charity work and blonde Heidi Klum certainly made the effort for the amfAR gala in a backless plunging gown.

All eyes were on the 39-year-old at the New York event as the model arrived wearing a breathtaking black gown which highlighted her flawless figure and deep tan.

The Germany’s Next Top Model host was being honoured along with Janet Jackson at the American Foundation for AIDS Research (amfAR) event for her extensive charity work.

Seal’s ex was being honoured for her exceptional contribution to the fight against AIDS and dazzled at the event in her outfit.

At 5ft10in the mother-of-four stood tall on the red carpet in the shimmering gown which perfectly complemented her figure.

Her hair was ironed and fell with razor precision down her shoulders, adding to the drama of her charcoal eye make-up and a drop necklace.

Heidi who is dating her bodyguard Martin Kristen following her split from Seal, left her relatively new beau at home for the evening.

Martin, has been dating the media personality since last September and she certainly seems happy enough in her new relationship to leave her hunky man at home.
