“MC ready!” she captioned the pictures.
“To raise a lot of money (hopefully) for an incredible event — the Gold Dinner, for the @schf.kids (Sydney Children’s Hospitals Foundation).
“A moment for the hair and makeup: Kellie at @thesalonstanmore182 and the styling @natshehata.”
Natalie also tagged the Australian designers she was wearing — a gown by Zhivago with earrings from Fairfax and Roberts.
In one photo the Sunrise co-host was seen getting her hair done, while in another she posed for a lift selfie.
A close-up photo showed the incredible detail in the glittering gold and silver one-sleeved dress she was wearing.
Natalie’s followers — including fellow Seven celebrities — dropped into the comments section to enthuse about the finished look.
“LOVE”, wrote The Morning Show co-host Kylie Gillies, while Australian Idol co-host and singer Ricki-Lee Coulter dropped five “fire” emojis.
Others called the look “spectacular”, “smokin’ hot” and “stunning”.
“A golden mermaid,” one follower wrote.
“You bring out the best in everything you wear!!
“Gorgeous.”
“Woo hoo!! BEAUTIFUL,” added a third.
“She has ARRIVED,” wrote another.
Fashion following
Natalie regularly posts pictures of her Sunrise outfits on Instagram and has built up quite the fashion following.
Her outfits are primarily based around Australian brands.
On April 18, Natalie modelled a shirt from Witchery’s White Shirt Campaign to raise funds for ovarian cancer treatment and research.
On April 9, she showed off a pale lilac suit by Aussie-designed and made brand Furlong & Gale, while on March 26 she wore a beige pencil skirt from Scanlan Theodore.
But Natalie is also an in-demand host and guest at charity events and galas, so her followers also get the occasional glimpse at her evening wear looks, too.
On March 24, Natalie attended the 19th Dance for Daniel in Brisbane wearing a stunning red Carla Zampatti gown.
“21 years after Daniel Morcombe was taken, his beautiful parents and brother are still working to save kids from abuse through the @danielmorcombefoundation,” she wrote at the time.
“Last night these great Queenslanders gathered at Brisbane City Hall for the 19th #dancefordaniel to raise money to keep education programs going and help for families affected by this terrible scourge.
“Some have come every single year.
“You’re all amazing and Bruce and Denise are truly inspirational.”
One follower said Natalie looked “exquisite” in the Zampatti gown.
Former Sunrise entertainment reporter Nelson Aspen agreed: “You look lovely, Nat!”
Added a third: “Stunning as always Nat and supporting such a great charity.”
