Marion, meanwhile, also opted for some sparkle in a strapless blue-gray dress with cinched waist and a pleated skirt. Her sister, Tabitha, kept it classic in a black dress.
Sarah Jessica has largely kept her children out of the spotlight and previously opened up about how she keeps them grounded, despite their parents being in the public eye.
Appearing on Australia's KIIS FM, the star said that she tells her children: "I will do my best to make sure you always have what you need, but I want you pining towards something. I want you to work for something, to dream of it, to will it to happen."
