Jennifer Hudson

A magnificent purple gown for the opening of ‘The Color Purple’ on Broadway! We love the train of thought here. This radiant gown fits Jennifer like a glove and the layered detail at the bottom of the dress is gorgeous.

Uzo Aduba

Uzo nailed this look on the head. In a frock that could have easily skewed young, she brings fierce grown woman vibes to it. The silver accessories are perfect and the color of the dress looks absolutely gorgeous on her skin.

Chanel Iman didn’t even have to stand up to land on the best dressed list of the week. Her printed frock is great and then we have those shoes. Thigh-high, PVC boots with stand-out heels. Slay!!

When you’re a Victoria’s Secret model and you’re going to watch the show you just slayed, you must look the part. Enter Jasmine Tookes’ sleek camel coat, leg baring leather skirt and simple black tank. Gorg!
