She paired the sparkling gown with red peep toe stilettos, diamond jewellery and a ruby coloured clutch.
Cindy, along with her husband of thirteen years, Rande Gerber, stepped out to support their friend George Clooney,whose movie The Ides Of March was premiering as part of the Venice Film Festivals opening ceremony.
The pair have been staying with George in the run up to the festival at his Lake Como villa.
The Ides of March, a political drama, is among 23 films - five from Hollywood - vying for the coveted Golden Lion, which will be awarded September 10.
The jury will be headed by American director Darren Aronofsky, a two-time Golden Lion winner whose "Black Swan" was launched to huge Oscar success after opening in Venice last year.
The film tells the story of an ambitious campaign press secretary, played by Ryan Gosling, who gets swept up in a political scandal in the last frantic days of a heavily contested primary race.
It also stars Philip Seymour Hoffman and Paul Giamatti as rival campaign managers, is adapted from the play "Farragut North" by Beau Willimon.
Clooney said the movie was ready to begin filming when Barack Obama was elected U.S. president in 2008.

In all, 66 films will make their world premiere at the 68th edition of the world's oldest festival. It is the first time since World War II that all feature films in the festival's three official events - in competition, out of competition and the "Horizons" avant-garde section - are world premieres.
Nearly half of the festival's lineup is high-powered English-language films, a sign of its growing prestige in the eight years that it has been directed by Marco Mueller.
