Her brunette locks were swept back in an elegant bun and completed her look with a slick of red lipstick.
And while at the event Gaia revealed to Richard Eden that she’s prepared to follow her mother’s example and disrobe on screen.
Dame Emma recently bared all in her latest film — Good Luck To You, Leo Grande.
Gaia said: ‘If it’s professionally prepared, and you‘ve got the right kind of protection around you, then that’s absolutely fine.'

It comes after Gaia detailed her three-year battle with anorexia - and credited her parents for saving her life by staging an emergency intervention.
The aspiring actress developed anorexia aged 16 which left her so thin she was unable to even sit on a chair without it being painful. She was later admitted to rehab in 2017.
She spoke out about her illness for the first time with The Sun on Sunday, saying 'Anorexia makes you really good at gaslighting people, making it sound like they're insane. My parents would say, 'Gaia, we heard you working out at 3am.' And I'd say, 'No you didn't, it was just the house moving. I was asleep.''
Gaia spoke of how Greg, 56, Emma, 63, her family, including brother Tindy, 36, and best friend gathered together for an intervention, with Gaia agreeing to a three-month rehab stint after Greg said: 'I don't know where my child is any more.'

Adding that it was a 'kick in the teeth' she added: 'I had to listen to the people I loved most in the world who, at the time, I'd really forgotten about, tell me what I was doing.'
She said: 'That's when I said I'd go to rehab. I went on December 29, 2017, and stayed for three months. Since then I've had a lot of therapy — and I'll always be grateful for that, because it saved my life.'
Anorexia is a serious mental illness where a person restricts their food intake, which often causes them to be severely underweight. Many also exercise excessively.
Some sufferers may experience periods of bingeing, followed by purging. Sufferers often have a distorted view of themselves and think they are larger than they really are.

Gaia believes the anorexia was brought on when her aunt Clare, Greg's sister, was diagnosed with breast cancer and then later moved in with their family.
She said: 'I wanted to not be a problem, to be in control as everything else was falling apart. I was so focused on being thin I didn't have time to think of anything else. It drowned out everything I couldn't deal with.'
Greg cared for Clare before she died in 2016, aged 51.
