Debbie Harry looked incredible as she celebrated her new Gucci campaign at an intimate dinner at Manuela in Manhattan on Tuesday evening.
The American singer, 79, was dressed to impress in a black sheer mesh blouse which she teamed with a strappy top beneath.
She paired the number with a pair of straight legged trousers and added inches to her frame in a pair of towering burgundy boots.
Styling her long blonde tresses loose, the One Way Or Another singer toted her belongings around in a Gucci handbag and wore a glamorous palette of makeup.
Debbie was joined by singer Kelsey Lu, 33, who looked chic in a grey blazer, a matching long skirt and a pair of black brogues.
It comes after former wild child rocker Debbie recently revealed her hell-raising days are behind her and she has taken up knitting.
The former heroin addict, has previously spoken about how she ‘tried everything’ during her band Blondie’s heyday.
She told The Big Issue: ‘I’m curious about how I will respond to being back out on the road, since I haven’t done it for a couple of years.’
‘I’ve had to change my behaviour over the years, and behaviour is very hard to change.
‘On tour these days I do what the women on the front during the French Revolution would do.
‘I sit there knitting and rocking back and forth.’
‘That’s what I do. I will be bringing my knitting needles with me.’
Earlier this year, Debbie wowed the crowds in Australia when she performed at the Pandemonium Rocks festival in Melbourne.
Despite facing criticism for the decision not to offer full refunds to fans after a significant lineup change, a crowd of 6000 turned out for the opening night of the music festival in April.
‘It’s a beautiful night to bring our songs out of the dark,’ she told the crowd. ‘I hope you’re keeping each other warm out there.’
Debbie also performed at the Metro Theatre on ANZAC Day.
The lead vocalist of American rock band Blondie, who hadn’t played a concert in Australia since 2017, was spotted shopping for souvenirs in the city.
