10.02.19 Runway To Red Carpet
Viola Davis showed one should never mistake simplicity for boring at the 2019 BAFTAs on Sunday (February 10).
She is nominated for Best Actress for her work in ‘Widows’ and she came dressed for the big moment in Armani Prive Fall 2018.
The changes from the runway version allowed the focus to remain on her rather than her outfit.
The mix of the deep velvet with the sweeping white satin bow creates the most beautiful shape for the décolletage.

31.01.19 Runway To TV Show
Viola Davis made a guest appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Tuesday (January 29) to promote the new season of ‘How To Get Away With Murder.’
The actress, who spent most of the time talking to Jimmy about the menopause, looked radiant wearing an Alice + Olivia Resort 2019 look featuring ‘Farrel’ paper bag waist trousers.
I have never been able to successfully make these style of trousers work on me, so I love how stylish they look on the actress.

Viola Davis was one of the guest presenters at the 2019 Critics’ Choice Awards on Sunday (January 13) in Santa Monica, California.
The actress added a dose of shimmering decadence to the red carpet wearing a Michael Kors Collection custom gown.
I love how this piece sculpts a statuesque silhouette and illuminates thanks to the scores of bronzed sequins.
It’s an instant classic.

Lupita Nyong’o was joined on the red carpet for The Hollywood Reporter’s Power 100 Women In Entertainment event on Wednesday (December 5) in Los Angeles, California, by a host of lovely ladies.
Amandla Stenberg: The young actress continues to have fun with fashion. This time she wore a Sies Marjan Fall 2018 striped suit which was oversized, but not outsized. The pretty pink hue ensured a feminine vibe.
Danai Gurira: The actress is back to wearing bold colour, and I couldn’t be happier. While I love the draping of this Poiret Spring 2019 dress, I prefer how this dress was presented on the runway.
Awkwafina: I surprised that even with this cheery bug-print MSGM top and skirt that the actress still can’t raise a smile.
13.11.18 Screening
Fashionable ladies joined Cynthia Erivo at the ‘Widows’ New York special screening on Sunday (November 11) followed by the BUILD Series on Monday (November 12).
Michelle Rodriguez: The actress brought sultry sophistication in Jill Stuart to the screening. The deep pink heels increase the feminine romance of the off-the-shoulder style considerably.
Viola Davis: Deviating slightly from the night’s black theme, she added some sumptuousness to the sensual sheer black outfit with the blue blazer. It’s a shame the tailoring brings it down because the top half seems a tad tight and the trousers too long.
Elizabeth Debicki: She looked like a tall drink of water in Giorgio Armani with Malone Souliers ‘Penelope’ pumps. It might not be the most memorable, but it oozed restrained elegance.
29.10.18 Runway To Red Carpet
Viola Davis joined Cate Blanchett for the 2018 British Academy Britannia Awards in LA on Friday (October 26), where she presented Steve McQueen with the John Schlesinger Britannia Award for Excellence in Directing.
After a rare misstep, the actress was back on top form in Bibhu Mohapatra.
Presented in a structured body-sculpting silhouette, this Fall 2017 gown makes for a punchy piece of formalwear thanks to the contrasting embroidered design and single sleeve for an extra dose of drama.
Kallati diamond earrings and a Tyler Ellis clutch completed her look.

11.10.18 Premiere
The BFI London Film Festival had its opening night on Wednesday (October 10), with Viola Davis’ latest film, ‘Widows’ premiering at the event.
This might be controversial, but I’m not crazy about Viola in this Akris red dress.
I adore the colour on her, but the dress itself feels pretty basic, and doesn’t live up to her stature.
I also don’t like random asymmetric line going across her chest.
A matching Tyler Ellis ‘Aimee’ clutch and black pumps completed her look.

01.10.18 Runway To TV Show
Viola Davis made a guest appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Monday (September 24), where she talked about ‘How to Get Away with Murder,’ and her new children’s book ‘Corduroy Takes a Bow.’
The person who should really be taking a bow right now is her stylist, because this Cinq à Sept Pre-Fall 2018 suit is good. So, so good.
I adore the rich, warm maroon hue, the tailored fit, the feminine floral embroidery, and the sexy, partly sheer top she wore with the suit.
This is easily one of my favourite looks from Viola.

An ‘A’ list cast for ‘Widows’ took to the red carpet for the premiere during 2018 Toronto International Film Festival on Saturday (September 8) in Canada.
Elizabeth Debicki: If Cate Blanchett is the queen of all things Armani Privé, then Elizabeth is the princess. The Australian actress was oozing old Hollywood glamour in this black silk velvet Fall 2018 gown with a gold bodice embroidered with champagne-coloured crystals which was a perfect testament to her graceful style. Birks jewels – a favourite of the Duchess of Sussex – completed her look.
Colin Farrell: Formerly known as devotee to Dolce & Gabbana, it appears the Irish actor now has a penchant for the fine tailoring of Dior Men. With guys like Chadwick Boseman taking risks, and Timothée Chalamet making a bold return to the red carpet this weekend, you might not feel too connected to this look, but you should never frown upon classic style.
Viola Davis: In calling Viola’s black Elizabeth Kennedy dress basic, I do so with all due respect. It was the perfect canvas for her to be creative and with her House of Yimama tribal choker. Not only does it bring so much colour, culture and vibrancy to her look, it also shows her flare for style.
13.04.18
Variety’s Power Of Women: New York event on Friday (April 13) had many influential women in attendance.
Padma Lakshmi: A beauty in red, the ‘Top Chef’ host put on a coordinated display from head to toe. Everything in her look was perfectly cohesive from the three-piece slim Styland suit to the sandals to her red lipstick. No statement jewellery was necessary as the fiery hue had such impact.
Alicia Keys: The singer experimented with silhouettes by teaming a Calvin Klein Spring 2018 dress with cropped pants and heeled mules. Had the trousers been full length, they would have had more of an elongating effect. I’m sure there will be others who will take issue with the statement tie belt.
Viola Davis: The actress wowed in pink at the 2018 Oscars, and she took the shade for a spin once again in a Pamella Roland dress. The pewter accessories and Toni & Chloe Goutal necklace bring a cool modernity to the feminine style.
05.03.18
Viola Davis brought a big smile to my face upon stepping onto the red carpet at the 2018 Oscars on Sunday (March 4) in Hollywood.
I was craving a major colour moment, and the actress delivered in this vibrant Barbie-pink Michaal Kors Collection gown.
I love that she wasn’t afraid to have fun with this shimmering hue—not to mention her wave of curls—with Roger Vivier handbag perfection achieved in the embellished, matching clutch.
I have to wonder if her heels were also pretty in pink.

Viola Davis is known for always looking perfect on the red carpet and it’s no different this year.
Kicking off award season in a velvet Brandon Maxwell gown with a Harry Winston statement necklace, Davis exuded sophistication at the 2018 Golden Globes. The sweetheart neckline accentuated her curves in the most subtle sultry way possible.
The ‘How to Get Away with Murder’ actress added more texture to her look with a satin Tyler Ellis clutch.
She stayed true to herself with natural hair and a dark brown-toned nude lip that worked perfectly with the simplicity of her red carpet look.
Can’t wait to see what else Viola wears this season.
