Fashion Deets: The Birth of a Nation Hollywood Premiere with Gabrielle Union in Rodarte, Aja Naomi King in Huishan Zhang, Garcelle Beauvais, and More!

The Birth of a Nation Hollywood Premiere went down last night with our favorite stylish stars in attendance. Though i am absolutely still on the fence about seeing the film, a powerful assemblage of black stars such as these is a rare and beautiful thing.
So let’s stick to the fashion for now, shall we?


Gabrielle Union was a vision in a white lace Rodarte gown with a thigh-high slit. Hot!

Aja Naomi King looked ethereal in a white, feather-detailed Huishang Zhang stunner. This was fab.

Garcelle Beauvais went bold in a strapless cobalt jumpsuit. Gorgeous!

A short-sleeve, sequin embellished mini dress and cutout booties were on the agenda for Annie Ilonzeh. Nice seeing her back on the red carpet: she’s always hair goals.

Mr. Black Panther himself Chadwick Boseman kept it simple in black and navy. He’s so handsome!

Gloria Govan gave some flair to a simple, gray heathered maxi dress with a statement-making necklace. Simple and chic!

Nas was dapper in a striped suit.

A pared-down duo was on the menu for Jesse Williams—accented by a dot print shirt and suede shoes. He looks good in just about anything!

Colman Domingo was one of my best dressed of both the night and the week in a forest green Ports 1961 star-patterned suit.

Last, but certainly not least was Angel Parker in a curve-hugging, black and navy frock. Hot!
Who had your favorite look of the night? Are you planning on seeing The Birth of a Nation?
