Bindi Irwin dazzles in a chic black and brown skirt as she receives top honour ... trends now

Bindi Irwin was honoured with a major award as she attended the 12th Annual Blossom Ball in New York on Friday.

Joined alongside her family - brother Robert Irwin and mum Terri Irwin - the wildlife warrior, 25, was the recipient of the 2024 Endometriosis Foundation of America's Blossom Award at the black-tie charity event held at Gotham Hall in Manhattan.

The honour was for her advocacy work around endometriosis, after coming forward about battling the disease.

Speaking at the event, Bindi told Access: 'If you had asked me a couple years ago if I would be standing here, I wouldn’t have believed you in a million years.'

'Endometriosis was taking over my life and every day felt like just getting one foot in front of the other and now to be on the other side of surgery, the gratitude that I feel in my heart is overwhelming,' she added.

Bindi and her brother were all smiles as they posed for photos with their mother on the red carpet ahead of the event.

The wildlife conservationist, who shares daughter Grace with husband Chandler Powell, wore an elegant black and brown-patterned skirt paired with a simple black top.

She accessorised with a gold heart-shaped pendant necklace that read 'Better than yesterday', while her brunette hair was loosely curled just past her shoulders.

Robert, 20, wowed onlookers in a dashing black outfit, which featured a slim-hipped jacket with tux lapels and matching slacks.

Going tieless for the event, which raised money for the The Endometriosis Foundation of America (EndoFound), Robert matched his suit with a sleek pair of black dress shoes.

Wearing thick blond hair in his trademark comb over, the I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here host flashed a smile.

Terri, 59, showed off her legs in a short black dress that she paired with a set of matching shoes.

The veteran zoo keeper went for a minimal make up look and let her familiar bangs fall over her shoulders.

She completed her look with a heart on a chain she wore around her neck.

Last year, Bindi addressed her 10-year battle with endometriosis.

Bindi, who shares daughter Grace Warrior, one, with her husband Chandler Powell, revealed there were moments the pain was so unbearable that she thought she was going through a pregnancy loss. 

'Along my pregnancy journey. I would often have times where I thought I was miscarrying because I would have severe unexplained pain,' she told Good Morning America in October.

'I would think that I was losing our beautiful daughter.'

In March, the daughter of the late Steve 'the Crocodile Hunter' Irwin spoke for the first time about her battle with the disease in a lengthy Instagram post.

The Crikey! It's the Irwins star said she had spent ten years 'torn apart [by] the pain' and knew she had to have surgery because she 'couldn't live like I was'.

She explained how the surgeon from the Seckin Endometriosis Center in New York City had removed a total of thirty-seven lesions and a 'chocolate cyst' - a term for a cyst filled with menstrual blood.

Endometriosis is an often painful condition in which the tissue that lines the uterus also grows outside the uterus.

There are a wide variety of symptoms: pain can affect areas ranging from the abdomen and lower back to the pelvis and vagina.

Other symptoms include painful sexual intercourse, abnormal menstruation, nausea, bloating, and pain with bowel movements.
