This past week he had a number of daring looks with sleek ensembles that wore frames like gloves, braved the weather and went heavy on individualism. The stars went hard on their wardrobe and glamour, setting the stage on fire with soft tones and hard textures. From the red carpet to the streets and everywhere in between, black women focused on serving fashion with a rejection of the ordinary.
Plus, it was a quiet week in terms of star-studded events, but the off-duty ensembles held their end. Take the example of a regular celebrity on our best-dressed list, Garcelle Beauvais who experimented with sparkles, starkly alternating with luxurious velvet. If working hard on decorations is your thing, then so be it Chloe Bailey would be your girl, as she gave an unmissable nod to dazzling sparkles.
The looks
During the day Missy Elliotts ‘Out Of This World’ tour in Atlanta, talented artists Ciara And Monica Denise connected in what seemed to be a fashion reunion of soul sisters outside of music. We don’t know if this was a pre-conceived fashion theme, but all black led the evening. Both showed off in tight leather outfits, accessorized with thigh-high boots and topped off with sleek long hair, albeit in different shades. The fashion energy was fierce, as was all things black. The nostalgic tie-in only fits the legend of Missy Elliot.
However, Christmas may be four months away, but… Mary Carey thawed early. Announcing her Christmas tour, Carey posed in a red, glittering Valdrini Sahiti dress and her signature wavy hair. The plunging neckline number revealed a dazzling diamond necklace, adding shine to the already alluring aesthetic. There’s one thing Carey will always do, maybe two: secure the Santa bag and start the countdown in style.
Meanwhile, South African star girl Bonang Matheba made a chic bag for leather—one that a fashion girl would want to wear even on a hot summer day. To publicize her reality show ‘B*dazzled by Bonang’, she wrapped herself in coordinating layers of leather. The white leather set consisted of oversized trousers and a short zip-up jacket, characterized by fine tailoring and an expensive texture. Plus, she paired this with a brown coat for a dignified contrast, then underlined the look with a large tote bag. No lessons can be given. From the play of colors to the silhouette, big things only catch the eye at Bonang.
