Brooke Shields cut a stylish figure on Thursday as she promoted her new book at the Women On The Move Live event in New York City.
The American actress, 59, who released her memoir in bookstores earlier this week, looked incredible as she donned an off-white turtleneck dress which boasted a cut-out panel at the waist and an asymmetric hem.
She wrapped up warm in a chic cream coat which featured a structured collar and a belt to cinch in her waist.
Flashing a glimpse of her taut midriff, Brooke added inches to her frame with a pair of nude Dior slingback heels which retail for £850.
She opted for further accessorising her look with a stack of silver earrings and a matching bracelet as she posed up a storm at the event.
To complete her glamorous look, the model styled her brunette tresses in a voluminous blowout and wore a flawless palette of makeup.
She was also joined on stage by SiriusXM host Jessica Shaw to discuss her new memoir.
Jessica looked effortlessly chic in a black dress which featured a high neckline, short sleeves, and a flared skirt.
The host added inches to her frame with a pair of black boots and appeared in high spirits as she got several snaps with Brooke.
Brooke Shields Is Not Allowed to Get Old: Thoughts on Aging as a Woman, hit shelves on Tuesday.
But ahead of its release, the Blue Lagoon star revealed the cover of the book on Instagram in conjunction with People.
‘I am beyond ecstatic to share that my brand new book will be out on January 14th! I hope that this book can help start a conversation about how midlife can be the prime of life… full of possibilities and excitement,’ her caption began.
‘It’s honest and it’s hilarious and you can pre-order your copy RIGHT NOW!’ she added while thanking her ghostwriter and publisher.’
Brooke has been famous since she was a child and has found with age, she’s gained a new perspective.
In her new book, the Mother of the Bride star dives into the idea that women in midlife are in control of their own lives and stories.
The former Calvin Klein Jeans model used research and reporting as well as proven age-related bias and in the end, gives readers an optimistic outlook on their midlife journey.
‘I hope this book can help start a conversation that benefits us collectively,’ Brooke previously said in a statement to People.
‘Midlife can be the prime of life – it’s filled with so many more possibilities than we’ve been led to believe. I have loved the process of writing this book, and I can’t wait to share it with readers.’
Brooke was married to tennis star Andre Agassi, 54, for two years, from 1997 to 1999, but their relationship ultimately ended in divorce.
The memoir also touches on their relationship and she has already dropped some bombshells, including conversations between the two of them.
‘I was very specifically told I was not runway-worthy, because I wasn’t skinny enough,’ she wrote in her new book, per People.
‘Being told you are ‘the face,’ you begin to believe that’s all you are — a face. From the neck up, I was Brooke Shields, but it was like my body existed in a different reality,’ she penned.
She recalled telling Andre about these inner thoughts and insecurities.
‘When I would profess my insecurities to my first husband, he would always say, “I wish you could see yourself the way I see you,”‘ Brooke wrote.
‘However when I said, “Will you still love me if I’m big and fat?’ (I meant once I got pregnant — an unfair question for anybody to ask another person I know!) I could never have expected his response,’ she continued.
Brooke claimed that Andre had told her, ‘I love you too much to let you get big and fat!’
The Pretty Baby star admitted in the book that it was a response that she didn’t expect.
She wrote: ‘I definitely did not see that coming and must admit I started to spin a bit,’ Brooke wrote, per the outlet.
Before adding: ‘But we all know how that relationship turned out.’
After Brooke’s divorce from Andre, she found love with film director Chris Henchy, who she married in 2001.
The couple share two children together, daughters Rowan, 21, and Grier, 18.
