AnnaLynne McCord was gorgeous in black last night at the annual Somaly Mam Foundation Gala and Awards held at Espace in NYC.

STORY: AnnaLynne McCord Is A Greek Goddess!

24-year-old AnnaLynne was joined by Russell Simmons, who was recognized by the Foundation for his anti-slavery efforts , Susan Sarandon and Petra Nemcova at the event, which raises awareness and funds to fight human trafficking and sexual slavery around the world. 

For the occasion, the 902010 star chose a floor length, velvet black dress with a pear shaped cut exposing her bare back.

The actress and philanthropist, who is currently dating 41-year-old Australian actor Dominic Purcell, wore her hair long and looked relaxed on the red carpet.

Although she’s a big Hollywood actress, AnnaLynne spoke to GlobalGrind about her work advocating against sex trafficking and made it clear she’s over the Tinseltown scene.

I think that at this point we’ve seen it all, we’ve heard it all. We’re getting bored, like c’mon! Let’s do something, I want to start a trend, that giving back is hot, sexy and cool! Let’s do it.
