Lakshmi, 53, posed with Bailey at the event in her costume, which was also inspired by animals. Former A top chef the host took the fairy-tale aspect of the gala’s theme — “Once Upon a Hulaween: Tales of Horror and Death” — seriously, dressing up in what looked like a wolf from Little Red Riding Hood.

Mulvaney wore a blue velvet corset top, a yellow tutu and lots of red bows. The social media star also swapped her usual blonde locks for a jet-black bob and accessorized with a matching red scarf, clutch and heels.

Midler, 77, spoke to PEOPLE about her longtime involvement with the annual event in October 2020.
“One of the main things we wanted to do was raise awareness of the organization and inspire others across the country to do something similar to the model we’ve established,” she said at the time.
According to the New York Restoration Project’s website, this year’s gala contributed to the organization’s “work to ensure equal access to green spaces for all New Yorkers.”
