Aja Naomi King In Michael Costello – Essence Black Women In Hollywood Awards

Aja Naomi King was one among many stars that attended the Essence 10th Annual Black Women in Hollywood Awards Gala on Thursday (February 23), in Beverly Hills, California.

Donning a whimsical Michael Costello Collection 17 Part 2 gown, the actress certainly made a statement walking down the red carpet.

With so many bold elements in one dress, there is a lot to take in here.

As radiant as Aja looks, this gown is just too busy to work in her favour. Perhaps without the sheer balloon sleeves or deep cut-out, this look would have fared a lot better.

I’m glad she kept the styling simple with a neutral makeup palette and accessories.

How do you feel about this look?
