They were surrounded by some of the world's most beautiful diamond jewels.

But Blake Lively and Dita Von Teese still managed to outshine them as they attended the unveiling of Van Cleef & Arpels redesigned New York 5th Avenue Flagship Maison on Tuesday evening.

The two women were simply stunning in their black tie attire, wearing items from the luxurious French jewelery line.

While Dita has always been known for her love of dressing in a Forties theme, Blake also opted for a retro edge.

The 26-year-old wife of hunky actor Ryan Reynolds looked both stylish and sexy in a lingerie-inspired silk and lace black gown from Marchesa's Spring Summer 14 line.

The delicate attire featured pale pastel floral threadwork embroidery, Chantilly lace cutouts and tulle flounce skirt and was perfectly slinky over the star's slender figure.

The Savages star wore a vintage-style fur jacket as she made her grand entrance down the set of stairs to the store, and she boosted her already statuesque five foot ten height in a pair of black embellished heels.

But it was Blake's stunning diamond earrings, matching bracelet and ring that really completed the ensemble, with the accessories lighting up like a Christmas tree under the flashbulbs.

However, the jewels had some stiff competition from Blake's Lorianne Schwartz engagement ring, given to her by her hubby Ryan.

The actress continued the Old Hollywood theme in her hair and makeup, styling her blonde tresses in loose curls and applying some crimson lipstick to her pout.

Jaws dropped: Meanwhile, as always, Dita easily stole the show on the night, with the burlesque beauty wowing the well-heeled crowd in a plunging off-white silk gown that revealed some considerable cleavage

Meanwhile, as always, Dita easily stole the show on the night.

The burlesque beauty wowed the well-heeled crowd in a plunging off-white silk gown featuring a tiny navy blue pattern that also revealed some considerable cleavage.

The low-cut attire was the perfect ensemble for the 41-year-old to showcase her dazzling Van Cleefs & Arpels diamond choker.

The raven-haired siren also slipped on a matching ring and like Blake, had her hair styled in soft curls.

As Blake and Dita mingled with guests, they also posed with International CEO of Van Cleef & Arpels Nicolas Bos and CEO of Americas at Van Cleef & Arpels Alain Bernard.

Blake was taking a break from throwing herself into being a homemaker at the residence she shares with Ryan in Bedford, New York.

Recently The Gossip Girl star revealed plans to launch her own lifestyle website.

Socialising: Dita posed up with socialite and jet-setter Genevieve Jones

She told UK Vogue: ‘It's something that will be launching in a few months and that I'm really, really thrilled about.

'The main element of it is that it's about storytelling and it's about living a very one-of-a-kind, curated life, and how to achieve that.

'There's nothing like it out there - it's without a genre.’

Asked if she follows a strict exercise regime, she said: 'I do nothing! I'm lucky to have a very active lifestyle.

'I'm always running around everywhere, so I don't need to hire a coach or watch what I eat.

Blake, who is in fantastic shape, added that she doesn’t deprive herself of things she loves, and eats chocolate every day.

'I can't start my day off without a mug of hot chocolate or finishing off the day with a few squares of dark chocolate. It keeps me feeling happy,' she added.

Happy snap: And Dita did the same

Guests of honour: The two women posed with the men separately
