Gabrielle Union wore one of Gianni Versace's most famous designs to the NAACP Image Awards.
Over 25 years after his death, Gianni Versace’s legacy continues to thrive. In fact, hardly a red carpet goes by without an attendee arriving in a look from Gianni’s era. It was no surprise, then, when both of the major red carpets over the weekend each featured a Gianni-designed Versace moment, and both were quickly placed in the best dressed of their respective event.
, following the show, a Saudi Princess bought a custom version of the dress for $300,000, and the resulting piece weighs over 15 pounds.But back to the Circus dress, because it really is a work of art, featuring depictions of stars, horses, lettering, and much more in bright blue, yellow, red, orange, green, and black beading. She paired the gown with sleek, straight hair, a Bulgari necklace, and black, pointed-toe Jimmy Choo heels featuring an ankle strap encrusted with crystals.
Union then stepped in, putting out a call to action and asking, “Will we fight for some, or will we fight for all of our people?” She continued by naming “a couple hard truths,” saying, “the intersection of black rights and the rights of the LGBTQIA, trans, and gender nonconforming people continues to be rough...Even as we demand equality at the top of our lungs, we consistently fail to extend our advocacy to protect some of our most vulnerable among us.
“Black trans people are being targeted, terrorized, and hunted in this country every day, everywhere, and there’s rarely whisper about it,” she said. “We honestly don’t approach this work as activists or leaders as much as we do this as parents. Parents who love our children and will do whatever the hell we can to keep them seen and secure and safe...So we are humble and hopeful for the future. We are hopeful that we may witness a real shift in the fight for justice.
