Angelina Jolie was supported by daughter Zahara while attending the 36th Annual Palm Springs International Film Festival on Friday.
The Maria star, 49, looked in good spirits, after finalizing her bitter divorce from Brad Pitt, 61, as she smiled for the cameras at the Palm Springs Convention Center.
The actress — who was recently seen for the first time since her and Pitt’s eight-year divorce battle concluded — made a striking entrance in a floor-length black halter-neck gown.
She accessorized with Fred Leighton jewels, including gold hoop and bezel set diamond drop earrings, and an oval diamond and ebony ring by Antonia Miletto.
The beauty — who is set to walk away $80 million richer after the divorce — completed her look with pointed-toe black heels, and wore her long tresses in a straight style.
Meanwhile Zahara, 19, who seemingly dropped her famous father’s last name last year, looked chic in a sleeveless white lace gown.

Earlier on Friday, the Maleficent actress — who recently stated that she hates ‘liars’ — flashed a cheerful smile as she made a grand arrival to the event for a screening of her critically acclaimed movie, Maria.
Her appearance came just days after it was revealed both she and Brad finalized their ‘horrendous’ divorce — although the former couple’s battle of their French vineyard is still ongoing.
During the festivities, Angelina — who ‘hopes Brad will stop attacking her’ — was also honored with the Desert Palm Achievement for Best Actress.
The biographical drama, Maria — which was directed by Pablo Larrain — officially dropped on Netflix last month in December.
Jolie has since garnered praise for her performance as the late opera singer, Maria Callas – and received a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actress in a Motion Picture, Drama.
Not present on Friday were Angelina’s other five children.
Jolie and Pitt, best known as ‘Brangelina’, share three biological children – Shiloh, 18, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 16 – as well as their adopted children Maddox, 23, Pax, 21, and Zahara.
Since their parents’ bitter split, Zahara, Shiloh and Vivienne have all dropped Pitt from their last name. It has been reported that Maddox and Pax do not talk to their father – while it is believed that Knox and Vivienne still speak with the Fight Club star, though they have not been pictured with him in several years.
