The 10 Best-Dressed Celebs of the Week

High-profile dinners and exclusive parties provided the backdrop for some of this week's best looks. From Kerry Washington to Lupita Nyong'o, see how your favorite celebs stepped out in style.

By Dominique Hobdy · November 13, 2015October 27, 2020
01
Kerry Washington

Kerry Washington was almost too chic for words in this elegant number. The satin shoulder detail gives it a refined look that goes the extra mile. Oh, and those lace shoes? Nice touch.

Tessa Thompson

Tessa Thompson is killing this leather dress! We love the fun purse and minimal jewelry.

03
Viola Davis

Viola Davis gives pretty in pink a new meaning in this dress. Her bow sandals are a great addition, giving us a sophisticated and fun look.

04
Uzo Aduba

Proving that sometimes simplicity is the way to go, Uzo Aduba slays this sleek number. We love the pop of green in her subtle jewelry.

Lupita Nyong’o

Lupita Nyong’o is a style maven in her own right so we’d expect nothing less than this emerald green stunner. We love the texture, detail and her gorgeous goddess braid that tops it all off.

06
Jennifer Hudson

She’s a dream girl indeed. Jennifer Hudson’s lovely beaded gown is everything and more. Love!

07
Zendaya

Yet again, it’s impossible to leave Zendaya out of the style conversation. This slate grey suit is the perfect “borrowed from the boys” look.

08
June Ambrose

June Ambrose shows us all how to work a blazer dress in this stunning look. Loving the gold accents, June!

Misty Copeland

Misty Copeland makes a strong case for turtle necks in this simply gorgeous gown. She looks sleek and elegant in this look.

Janelle Monae

Janelle Monae continues to own her black and white signature look in this super cute flared mini skirt, thigh-high boots, and bold accessories.
