If there’s one word that perfectly sums up the past week’s celebrity fashion offerings, it has to be “satisfying.” Although the streets were quiet, apart from events like the Los Angeles premiere of the film ‘Blink Twice’, the stars managed to satisfy our style cravings with outfits that spoke volumes. From unusual cuts to seductive fits, black celebrities went bold with colors, cuts and silhouettes that were as pleasing as they were breathtaking.

The looks

As ubiquitous as cut-out dresses have become, they still haven’t lost their flair. For example, Jordyn Bos got a white Azazie corset dress with a high slit while Zoe Kravitz tried out in a black Saint Laurent number for the “Blink Twice” premiere. The dresses are different but united on the altar of bold expressions. A chic dress with cutouts can be worn on or off duty.

Despite the heat all over the world, the weather in South Africa opted for snow. But this was no obstacle for Pastor Sarah Jakes Roberts couldn’t cross. She was ready for cold weather and wore leather pants from David Tlale, finished off with thick boots. In the meantime, Ciara was in full force in a sexy leather ensemble, giving another nod to rocking leather this season. Whether it’s an intricately sewn pants-and-jacket combination or a sultry leather outfit, leather works every time.

Host with the most, Bonang Matheba was on a killing mission at the Miss South Africa 2024. She wore sculptural and artistic designs from Nigerian designers like Veekee James and Somo. From halo hair accessories paired with gold-fringed outfits to silver feathers swirled to perfection, ethereal swirls woven into metallic embellishments and quilts full of statement rosette details, everything flashy made its way into the group chat and nothing was left undiscovered.
