Selma Blair made her first public appearance Sunday night since she revealed she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.
The 46-year-old actress got emotional as she walked the carpet at the Vanity Fair Oscars after-party in a pink, mint green, sky blue and black gown with a matching cape. She used a cane for support.
Blair explained in an Instagram post that she had a custom cane made for the party.

“This is love. @tombachik customizing my cane with my monogram and a real pink #diamond. How did I get so lucky? I wanted a special cane for #vanityfair dinner. So... @lyon_hearted went out and found patent leather and @bic_owen and he stitched it on,” she wrote in a post along with a photo of the cane being made.
