The red carpet at the 8th Annual Critics’ Choice Celebration of Black Cinema & Television gave us a run for our money. Every star showcased Black excellence through a spectrum of glamour.
Teyana Taylor, for starters, turned the night into a fashion performance with a sculptural, high-impact gown only she could command. Tessa Thompson embodied soft romance in a statuesque silhouette that blended ethereal beauty with modern precision. Ryan Destiny stunned in a chic, body-hugging red dress, while Jurnee Smollett brought polished drama in a simple but classy strapless dress.
Chase Infiniti wore a bold, youthful power suit that fused personality with fashion-forward edge. Janelle James looked confident and lit up the carpet in a sleek Black dress. Wunmi Mosaku exuded refined sophistication in a clean, structured purple silhouette that showcased her effortless grace.
The handsome men on the red carpet were our eye candy. Michael B. Jordan set the tone in a perfectly tailored suit. Damson Idris followed with a sleek, structured look. Lastly, Eren Legend stepped out in a sharply executed fit that proved menswear can be both classic and commanding.
