Here is a roundup from the red carpet at the TIME 100 Gala which took place on Wednesday (June 8) in New York City, where they joined Ariana DeBose and Zendaya.
I have one question.
What in the lord’s name is this?
Mary J. Blige has a very unique style, much like a Mariah Carey or a Christina Aguilera.
We can forgive some red carpet looks as they are dressing for their diva-like personas which are larger than life, but this custom Gaurav Gupta dress is the most baffling look I have seen in some time.
My first thought when I saw this was that this would’ve been a great dress for a Kylie Jenner or Beyonce pregnancy Instagram post reveal.
I kinda like the waterfall effect of the ruffles from the shoulders, but everything in the centre is a mess, and that is including the heart-pendant choker.
What a shocker.
Amanda Seyfriend wasn’t so bold (thankfully) in selecting this Carolina Herrera black dramatic fan pleated high low gown from the Pre-Fall 2022 collection.
An ALMASIKA choker completed her look.
Quinta Brunson was one of my favourites on this red carpet wearing a custom Dolce & Gabbana purple dress crafted from that liquid fabric which I find so hypnotic.
Olympian Eileen Gu kept things simple wearing a stunning red column dress styled with Tiffany & Co. jewels which proved that you don’t have to make a lot of noise to make an impact.
Two-time Olympian Aly Raisman looks beautiful wearing a Pamella Roland strapless black and white printed gown.
