Tyra Banks made a stylish return to the fashion scene by attending the inaugural Le Grand Diner du Louvre, an exclusive exhibition held at the iconic Louvre Museum to kick off the Paris Fashion Week.

Banks stunned in a black structured bustier paired with a floor-length, embellished black blazer adorned with tassels, per Radar Online.

She flashed her signature "smize" while posing with her hands on her hips. Sharing the moment on Instagram, Tyra posted a carousel of seven pictures, with the caption: "Last night, I officially stepped back into the Paris fashion world at Le Grand Diner du Louvre—and for the first time ever, I was inside the Louvre."

The 'America's Next Top Model' host continued, "Back in the '90s, when I was strutting Paris Fashion Week twice a year, the runway shows were outside the museum. So stepping inside—surrounded by centuries of art and history, with designer pieces woven into the exhibits—was absolutely spellbinding. I was in awe. I was shook. I was like… is this even real?"

Banks stated, "I felt beautiful in wet, sculpted hair—the vision of @elimizrahi, designer of @monotofficial who designed my dress, or should I say stunning coat? Eli, you shared your inspo, I was your muse, and together, we made it happen!! (And I’ll be sharing more from last night - the glams, the car ride, the BTS, oui oui!)"

"I felt grateful to be in the city that believed in me from the start. Merci, Paris, for helping me put the word “super” in front of “model," Banks continued.

She ended with, "This is just the beginning. A new beginning. And I am so excited to take all of YOU on this journey with me. Because you're never too old to DREAM and never too young to SMiZE. So keep dreaming. No matter your age. Paris, je t’aime!"
