A bandeau top and a maxi skirt—simple, right? But leave it to Kerry Washington to turn it into a standout fashion moment at the 56th NAACP Awards. If you’re looking for fresh style inspiration, here it is!
Who knew purple and brown could pair so beautifully? Kerry stepped onto the red carpet in a striking two-piece Prada ensemble that blended elegance with modern flair. The strapless purple bandeau top featured intricate 3D rosette floral appliqués, adding a delicate yet bold touch. The fitted design accentuated her silhouette, making the look even more eye-catching.
Then came the skirt—dramatic, flowing, and adorned with the same floral appliqués. The rich brown fabric cascaded into a sweeping train, creating a show-stopping effect. This unexpected color combination, paired with the detailed floral accents, brought a fresh and sophisticated energy to the red carpet, reinforcing Kerry’s reputation for making daring yet refined fashion choices.
Beyond the style statement, the night was a memorable one for Kerry. She won the award for Outstanding Actress in a Motion Picture for her compelling role in ‘Six Triple Eight,’ a Tyler Perry-produced film spotlighting the untold story of the all-Black, all-female WWII battalion.
Take a closer look at her stunning ensemble below—and don’t miss the moment she gives the outfit a twirl!
