Tracee Ellis Ross was in Catholic Cardinal pink I guess, in Michael Kors. That’s about the only tie-in I can think of to the theme, other than the robe element. I love Tracee and her 50s styling is fab, but I feel like we’ve seen her in formfitting sequin dresses with belts so many times before. That ruffled cape is so cool and look at how much fun she’s having.
Donald Glover said during his E! red carpet interview that he was looking forward to seeing Tracee and that he always had a good time with her. It shows! He’s trying to keep a straight face here.

Issa Rae was also in Michael Kors, in a mermaid black and gold brocade gown with a deep v-neck. I really like the folded rosettes at the shoulders, I’ve never seen that done before. Her styling is so pretty.
Yara Shahidi was in Chanel and I didn’t see much of theme in her princessy beige dress. It’s so weird to see a gown with a split tiered ruffled skirt like that. That element doesn’t make sense to me at all. Her headpiece is cool though.
