Gabrielle Union's red carpet style has lately leaned into all things sparkly, from her two-piece disco set at the Oscars to the chain-embellished naked dress she wore to the Vanity Fair party afterward. But at the 2024 NAACP Image Awards, the actress swerved in a minimal direction.
On Thursday night, Union attended the 55th annual award ceremony in Los Angeles. For the event, she wore a black halter gown from Burberry, dressed by her stylist Thomas Christos Kikis. The dress featured a floor-sweeping skirt with a dramatic leg-baring slit on the side, adorned with rosette embellishments at the neckline and at the hip. It almost looked like a red carpet twist on the sweatshirt dress, crafted from a soft, jersey-like material and set with two stringy ties at the top (like the ties on a hoodie).
