Stars sparkle on ASTRA red carpet

Former Miss Universe Jennifer Hawkins and other Aussie stars dazzled on the red carpet at the 12th annual ASTRA Awards last night.

Wearing a black floor-length Roberto Cavalli gown, Jennifer Hawkins looked sensational on the ASTRA Awards red carpet last night.

The annual ceremony recognises the wealth of talent that drives the Australian paid TV industry and highlights the creativity, commitment and investment in production and broadcasting.

“I feel like having a good night,” said Hawkins told the hoard of photographers and journalists waiting to snap pictures of the Australia’s Next Top Model host.

While everyone from Nicole Trunfio to Kerri Anne Kennerley turned up to the event with similar merry intentions, everyone knew that the night would include one sombre yet special moment.

An honorary award was presented to Robin Barclay and Vicky Dawson, the sisters of TV personality Charlotte Dawson for her “exceptional contribution” to the Australian TV industry. Dawson took her own life earlier this year after a long and painful battle with depression.

Lisa Wilkinson also paid a posthumous tribute to fashion designer L’Wren Scott while wearing a dress from the designer to the event.

Black was clearly in vogue on the night with many stars wearing the hue.
