All eyes were on Gwyneth Paltrow last night as she vamped up her usually prim look at a charity event New York.

The actress stepped out in vertiginous black heels that featured a S&M spin on this season's gladiator style complete with black nail lacquer on her toes.

Gwyneth, who attended the event without her husband Chris Martin, softened the look with a loose-fitting print dress and gently curled tresses.

Gwyneth lent her support to the hunger-relief program Food Bank, saying last night: "I grew up in this city, and I worked in soup kitchens throughout high school, so being back here is like a full circle. I'm just thrilled to be here and to help in any way I can. As celebrities, we are given so much and we are very blessed.
