One hot mama!
Making one of her first major red carpet appearances since splitting with her husband of 10 years, Ben Affleck, this past June, Jennifer Garner hit the red carpet at the 3rd Annual Save the Children Illumination Gala in NYC on Tuesday, Nov. 17.

Garner, 43, put her flawless figure front and center in a body-conscious Michael Kors Collection dress with sheer panels on the bodice — one of which revealed a peek at her cleavage. She teamed the design with an array of David Webb jewels, including a stunning pair of gold and platinum statement earrings studded with brilliant-cut diamonds.
The dress was an unexpected choice for the Miracles From Heaven actress, who tends to gravitate towards a more demure silhouette. Nevertheless, Garner wore her frock with confidence, and added even more va-va-voom with bouncy curls and a shimmering nude lip.

The mom of three — to Violet, 9, Seraphina, 6, and Samuel, 3 — was on hand at the event to champion the night's cause: to help children in need. "Just by being here during this season of benefits, you all are showing that you have a deep, caring concern for the well-being of children in America and the world, and we thank you for that," Garner told the crowd from the stage.
Naturally, she wasn't the only famous face at the gala event. Garner was joined by fellow mom Olivia Wilde, who also looked lovely in a Michael Kors Collection ensemble.
