Our Essence Fest headliner, Megan Thee Stallion, continued her fashionable return to the red carpet, wearing a custom blue cutout gown by an emerging brand Defaïence. The rapper’s look is brought to us by the image architect and the since-retired celebrity stylist Law Roach. Meg wore this gown for the 2023 Country Music Awards (CMT), which may be a bit unexpected, but then again, she is a born and raised Texan. The Houstonian rapper was there to present country music legend Shania Twain with a special award.

As soon as the “Sweetest Pie” rapper stepped on the red carpet, there was no doubt that Law Roach was responsible. Her appearance come-back has been divine to witness, full of luxurious looks that fit her personality so well. This custom blue gown was form-fitting in all the right places and featured a cut-out with a white buckle.

The look was inspired by a white cutout gown Toni Braxton wore in the 90s. The white buckle detail on the dress was paired with matching jumbo hoop white earrings and long white nails. Roach loves quality details, and the undersides of her nails were blue to coordinate with the gown. The overall look Megan is giving off is very 70s, which has been her go-to aesthetic lately. The rapper’s naturally curly hair accompanying the look seals the deal of a 70s-inspired vibe.

The way that Megan Thee Stallion’s outings and appearances have been looking makes us excited for her next appearance, and hopefully, we get to see her at The MET.
