The event was held in honor of French president Emmanuel Macron and his wife, Brigitte Macron, and happened to coincide with Violet's 17th birthday.

Other guests included singer John Legend and his wife, model and television personality Chrissy Teigen, Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, and actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus and her son, Charlie Hall.

Garner wore a black Ralph Lauren gown with sequin accents, while Violet sported a black Carolina Herrera dress covered in hearts.

Violet is Garner's elder daughter with Affleck. The pair also have daughter Seraphina, 13, and son Samuel, 10.

Garner said in an interview with Today in 2016 that she gives parenting "all I can."
