Following the Golden Globes, Black Hollywood dishes more details on their red carpet looks.
When Colman Domingo walked the Golden Globes red carpet, he used his style to honor the late civil rights activist Bayard Rustin — whom he recently portrayed to critical acclaim in Netflix’s “Rustin.”
The Golden Globe nominee told
Actress Sheryl Lee Ralph, once again styled by her daughter Ivy Coco Maurice, told WWD that her daughter pushes her to elevate her style through the right accessories. For the Golden Globes, Ralph wore a black velvet Safiyaa gown featuring a sweeping yellow train crowned by a bow, paired with a glitzy necklace by Daniel Williams Diamonds and a Fernando Jorge ring.
She told the publication, “My daughter always says to me, ‘Mom, if you’re going to be smashing the red carpets, your diamonds must be real!’”
One of the evening’s big winners, Ayo Edebiri, who won the Golden Globe for Actress in a Television Series, gave WWD the rundown on what went into her monochromatic look in one of the season’s signature colors. Edebiri, who wore a red satin strapless column dress with a red voile train by Prada, said her team was insistent that her shoes, also by Prada, were a perfect match.
When asked what it was like to be in full glam, she said, “It’s great! I definitely am a little more toned down on [“The Bear”], and I think in most of the roles that I do, so it’s fun getting to put something on a little [glamorous].”
Singer, actress, and “The Color Purple” star Fantasia Barrino — who wore a black and lavender corseted gown by Dolce & Gabbana with matching black opera gloves — also dished on her fashion from the Globes’ red carpet.
She told WWD, “I feel like fashion is almost like singing to me and doing movies. You submit yourself over to the artist to wear it and express yourself. And that depends on how you feel on that day.”
Barrino added how she felt able to fully represent herself with her look. She said, ”For me, I like to embody a lot of things. I’m a little girl from the country that they never thought would be here. So I can put on a little bit of anything and embody it.”
