Gemma ensured she caught the eye of onlookers in a bejeweled sheer black two piece which left her midriff on show.
She wore a hood up over her bob hairstyle, with silver sequins and rhinestones dazzling as she moved.
Her see-through skirt left her black underwear on display while she wore a pair of over-knee boots beneath the garment.

The cast also includes MCU's first deaf superhero (Lauren Ridloff as Makkari) and its first openly gay superhero (Brian Tyree Henry as Phastos) who shares the franchise's first onscreen same-sex kiss with Haaz Sleiman, who plays his husband.
In ELLE's 2021 Women In Hollywood issue, Angelina - who is an advocate for refugees - discusses her upcoming movie and praises The Eternals' director, Oscar-winner Chloé Zhao for her choice of casting.
'A lot of times as an actress, you're that individual strong woman, or you have one sister; you don't often have this family where you really get to know women and see all the different strengths,' she explained.

Praising her co-stars, she continued: 'Gemma's grace and elegance and the way she walks through the world. Salma's motherhood and power, and Lauren's connection and intelligence. Everybody came as themselves.
'Maybe there's something to that, that the characters weren't as far off [from ourselves]. I think there's a secret that we don't know that our director knows, because if you look at her films, she casts a lot of real people as their roles and it shapes her films.'
She reveals in the issue that when she was first contacted about the movie, she thought it was going to play a 'grandmother' type role.

'I never thought I was going to be one of the Eternals. It doesn't happen. It's never happened to me like that before without a fight and like, 'I can do this, please hire me!' When she told me I was one of them, I was like, ''Me, Mexican, Middle Eastern? Me, in my fifties? I'm going to be a superhero in a Marvel movie?'' Sometimes as a woman, as a woman of colour and with the age, you feel so overlooked,' she said.
Commending Zao for 'having balls', she championed the director for 'acknowledging' her within the industry.
Ridloff, whose character Makkari is deaf like her and the first deaf superhero within the Marvel universe, reveals she jumped at the chance to 'show representation' on screen in a 'refreshing' way, while Chan praises Marvel for showing diversity on a global scale with its movies.
Oh dear: Ahead of its release Eternals was branded 'disappointing' and 'ultimately unmemorable' by critics in first reviews of the hotly anticipated MCU blockbuster (above Angelina Jolie as Thena in the film)
Ahead of its release, Eternals has already been branded 'disappointing' and 'ultimately unmemorable' by critics in its first reviews.
The superhero flick was lambasted by critics over its 'miserably undernourished' script, deluge of underdeveloped characters and 'overloaded' storyline.
Critics were torn as the 'refreshingly diverse' cast of characters resulted in a group of 'navel-gazing superheroes' that signalled 'two steps forwards for representation but three steps backwards for dramatic ingenuity.'
The Times critic Kevin Maher gave the film two stars and took aim at the 157-minute flick's script and its 'strange self-sabotaging energy.'
