Her ensemble was cinched in at the waist with a thin metallic belt, and she matched her rosy blusher to her vibrant outfit.
Damian, 45, also smartened up for the occasion, lacing an arm around his wife's waist as the pair posed with event host, broadcaster Martha.
The pair have been married since 2007 and raise daughter Manon, 11, and son Gulliver, nine, together.

Their outing comes after Damian opened up about the impact being sent off to boarding school aged just eight has had on him.
The Homeland actor attended the revered prep school Ashdown House School and later Eton College, where previous alumni include the likes of Eddie Redmayne and Tom Hiddleston - and Damian admits the experience shaped him as a person.
He explained to the Evening Standard newspaper: 'I do have a temper. There is a latent anger in a lot of people that went to boarding school at an early age.'

'I was eight and I loved it over the five years. But I think the adjustments for eight-year-olds are a lot. And I think it informs who you are for a long, long time.'
The star has previously been adamant that his own children won't be sent away to school.
'You go through something which, at that age, defines you and your ability to cope,' he told the Sunday Times Magazine last year.
'There's a sudden lack of intimacy with a parent, and your ability to get through that defines you emotionally for the rest of your life.'
