Vanessa Hudgens lead the way at the grand opening of the Hard Rock Hotel in New York City on Thursday night. The “High School Musical” alum arrived at the star-studded celebration in a long-sleeve black silk dress. The slick number had a plunging cutout across the chest and a pleated skirt.

The singer completed her look with a wide buckled belt, dainty gold earrings and a medium Fendace Medusa handbag from the new Versace x Fendi collection. To amp up glam factor, Hudgens kept her hair sleek and straight and added a smokey eye and a neutral matte lip.

The “Bad Boys for Life” star continued to make a statement with Fendace FF Tulle tights. The sheer stockings feature a wide waistband and the FF monogram motif with a jacquard Versace logo. When it came down to footwear, Hudgens took things up a notch with leather slingback pumps. The high heels featured an elongated pointed-toe, a black emblem at the center and a thick pyramid heel.
