Jesinta Franklin looked absolutely stunning at the opening of the Yayoi Kusama exhibition in Victoria on Saturday night.
The AFL WAG bucked the trend at the NGV Gala 2024 at the National Gallery of Victoria with a simple white gown.
While many A-listers commanded attention on the night in artistic and eccentric ensembles, Jesinta kept things classic and chic.
The Australia model chose a white gown with a dramatic split at the thigh that showed off her trim pins.
It clung close to her famous figure and included a one-shoulder design and a halter neck detail as well as bell sleeves.
Jesinta added a pair of pointed white heels and dainty gold earrings, as well as a cuff in the same tone.

Jesinta chose a warm makeup look with a pink nude lipstick and wore her bob in a neat flip.
It comes after Jesinta revealed she and her AFL star husband Lance 'Buddy' Franklin plan to relist their lavish Gold Coast mansion after it failed to sell at auction.
The power couple took the sprawling 'Mediterranean' style seven-bedroom home off the market last month after it passed in at auction for $11million.
With the auction price not meeting their reserve, Jesinta, 33, told Daily Mail Australia they plan to put their luxury property back on the market in the New Year.
She said they will be looking for any buyers to snap up their family home for upwards of $11million.
'We'll relist in the New Year, it passed in at auction,' the model explained.
'It passed in for $11million, so if there's anyone over $11million out there that wants a beautiful house on the Gold Coast, you know who to call!'
Jesinta and Buddy, 37, famously smashed price records when they bought the Reedy Creek spread for $8.75million in 2022.

However, they are now selling up to try out the farm life with their kids - daughter Tullulah, three, and son Rocky, two.
The 2010 Miss Universe Australia winner admitted she and Buddy have not yet found their dream farmhouse, but are spending every weekend searching for the right plot.
'We are looking at so many properties, we spend our weekends out in the country, driving and looking for land,' she shared.
'We haven't found the perfect spot yet, but I feel like we're getting close.
'It's really important to get the right piece of land for what we want to do and it's really exciting.'
When they purchase their dream plot, the couple plan to build a luxury farmhouse on site with the help of Tidal Constructions, who constructed their Gold Coast home.
'Tidal Constructions, who built the current home that we're in, we've become such good friends with Ben and Dom, who run the company, and they've said that they'll build the next place,' she explained.
'We'd like a luxury farmhouse, barn-style with lots of veggie gardens.'

Jesinta also told how her family life has changed since Buddy retired from the AFL in July 2023 following a calf injury.
'It's been so good [having Bud at home],' she said.
'It's just been amazing, it really flows now and we can both really support each other with our work commitments and all of that, so it's been fantastic, he's such a good dad.'
Jesinta said they have been able to fit in more time to take their kids on fun trips and activities as she told how important it is for them to enjoy this time together.
'I'm just loving being a mum, I really took a step back this year from work to spend time with the kids because Bud took a year off, obviously his first year being retired, and Lulu starts school next year,' she shared.
'It's a privilege we are able to get this time with the kids. It's a lot of caravanning, camping, time at the beach, time at the creeks and the waterfalls and just really cherishing this time with them before school starts!'
The family are looking to embrace more of the countryside life when they offload their Gold Coast property and move into a rural farmhouse.
Jesinta and Buddy previously sold their luxury pad in Sydney's eastern suburbs for $5million to complete their move to the Gold Coast.
