Metallic. Pleats. Shoulder flourish. Slit. For ordinary humans this dress would be way too much. Fortunately, Solange is extraordinary.

Emma Stone in Chanel at the BAFTA Awards

Our new favorite “suit.”

Gal Gadot in Altuzarra at the Premiere of "Justice League"

A golden goddess gown is only fitting for the queen of the Amazons, don’t you think?

Issa Rae in Christian Siriano at the Golden Globes

Yes, a million bucks is exactly what you should look like at your first major red carpet.

Nicole Kidman in Gucci at the SAG Awards

If wearing parrots on your shoulders is wrong, we don’t want to be right.

As fashion newcomer of the year, every little detail is scrutinized, down to your light blue ACLU ribbon. Luckily, all were on point.

When we were 21, we wore dresses that inspired our parents to ask what they did wrong. When Zendaya was 21, she wore dresses that inspired a nation to reconsider chartreuse.

Sarah Paulson in Prada at the Met Gala

One of our all-time favorite ladies, making a strong case for dressing like a rich doyenne in her fancy pajamas.

Tracee Ellis Ross in Jenny Packham at the amfAR Gala

Yes, this is a reference to her mom’s unforgettable style, and no, we couldn’t love it any more.

Celine Dion in Stephane Rolland Haute Couture at the Billboard Music Awards

Thandie Newton in Monse at the Golden Globes

You know the fire emoji? This is that in dress form. 

Zoe Saldana in Gucci at the LACMA Art + Film Gala

Saldana earned a spot on this very list last year wearing Gucci to the same event. Good to see she isn’t resting on her laurels.

Chrissy Teigen in Marchesa at the Golden Globes

She looks like the most ornate candlestick we’ve ever seen, and we say that with nothing but pure jealousy.
