The former Fox news anchor, 56, had to be helped up to the podium to address guests in a sheer, lacy black gown that left little to the imagination.
Donald Trump Jr’s ex-fiancée divided social media with her sultry look, with many feeling it was ‘something a Kardashian would wear’, rather than a politician.
‘In my humble opinion that outfit is inappropriate for a woman in the position she holds,’ one Instagram comment read. ‘I’m surprised she would dress like that.’
‘An ambassador wearing a see-through dress?’ another remarked in shock – while a third offered: ‘The dress is as amazing as her body… but in a different space.’
A poster also questioned: ‘Is she at a night club?’
The event, which was held by the American-Hellenic Chamber of Commerce and the International Propeller Club of the United States, Port of Piraeus, saw a number of high-ranking officials in attendance at the luxurious, five-star Hotel Grande Bretagne.
It comes after Kimblery admitted that she’s ‘husband hunting’ after the breakdown of her engagement to Don Jr, which followed two failed marriages to California’s governor Gavin Newsom and businessman Eric Villency.
Guests enjoyed a cocktail reception before tucking into a festive, four-course meal, which was then followed by remarks from VIPs, including Kimberly herself.
It’s not the first time that she has made waves with her sexy diplomatic looks, kicking off the new role earlier this month with yet another bold outfit.
Once seated at her front-row table, the ambassador was personally welcomed by pop sensation Konstantinos Argyros, who serenaded the crowd with his biggest hits.
Sharing her table was billionaire Eric Vassilatos, whose private jet had whisked her to Greece earlier in the week, along with a few more people among her inner circle.
At one point, a fellow guest invited Kimberly onto the dance floor – she obliged briefly before returning to her seat, later joining in enthusiastically on the traditional Greek Syrtaki and Kalamatiano dances, linking arms with guests in a circle to dance.
The glitzy evening followed a much larger event at the Grand Hyatt, which drew more than 300 guests.
By contrast, an earlier celebration at the Athens Center was an intimate affair of around 150, attended by several leading figures from Greece’s business and political circles, including Tourism Minister Olga Kefalogianni.
Taking to the stage, Kimberly kept her message simple: ‘I will not disappoint you.’
Elsewhere this month, the ambassador shared candid details about her personal life in her first interview on Greek television, but failed to mention her relationship with Donald Trump Jr.
She had praised her ex-husbands California Governor Gavin Newsom and Eric Villency during the sit down with ANT1.
Kimberly remarked that she has a ‘very good relationship’ with both exes, adding: ‘What people need to understand about me is that I don’t give up. I will stay with you, I will be loyal. I will always be here – you can count on me. And I am proud of that.’
The praise came just days after she joked about having a ‘fabulous honeymoon’ in Greece with Gavin during a meeting with Greek President Konstantinos Tasoula.
But she seemingly avoided talking about her ex-fiancé Don Jr, whom she dated for six years.
She did, however, talk about her ex’s father and her new boss, President Donald Trump, and their plans to grow US-Greek relations.
Kimberly also shared how that the best advice she has ever received actually came from her father following the death of her mother.
‘When I lost my mother at the age of 10, my father told me: “Kimberly, you must be strong. You have talent, abilities, and nothing worse can happen to you in life than losing your mother. Be strong, endure”,’ she recalled.
‘He always said: “Whatever boys can do, you can do better.” I believed him. He was my father.’
She urged all women to follow that same advice, encouraging them to ‘fight for what they believe in’, ‘blaze new trails’ and ‘don’t be afraid to take risks.’
Kimberly appointment was confirmed by the Senate in September and she is now living in Greece.
She also told ANT1 that the two nations have already ‘achieved so much in just a few days’ and claimed the US looks forward to furthering that relationship.
She said President Trump chose her to be the Greek Ambassador because they both want Greece to become an ‘energy hub.’
‘We want to demonstrate that Greece can become the energy hub that will help us counter Russian and Chinese interests,’ she said.
‘What we are seeking is energy independence, which will strengthen national defense and national security.’
