A pretty stunning start for this gallery, no? Gugu was coming off Beyond the Lights and moving into Concussion promo, with Free State of Jones looming.

Hmm. This is suffering from some of the usual Prada problems -- darts, weird seams here and there -- but she gives it everything it could possibly want.

I watched Concussion on a plane. She doesn't have much to do, but boy, does she light up the joint when she's present.

This would be so much better without the bland stripes of nothingness.
At the Governors Awards (2015)
I want her to pop into the ladies' room and readjust her chest in the top, because the sparkles are otherwise so pretty.
In Burberry (2015)
She and Burberry might be my favorite relationship right now.
In Philosophy (2015)
This was in Jessica's "great wallpaper file," and it's a compliment.
In Narciso Rodriguez
Great color here. She's selling the cutouts, also.
In Coach
This is one of the few instances where I've bought into Coach's attempts to make clothes.

I want to clip the netting out of this; it doesn't need to be there, and is otherwise perfect.

I just love this. Color me surprised that it's by Rodarte; this is one of my favorites of the year, which means you'll probably be seeing it again.
In Brock Collection
So gorgeous. Is her face maybe the most scientifically perfect face since Halle Berry?
In Burberry
This dress is not as pretty as she is, but she amplifies it into something really striking.
In Narciso Rodriguez
After this whole slidshow, I'm mostly mad at the person who tried to slick down her hair. Those curls are perfect the way they are.
In Erdem
Not a success story. Which is why I'm breaking chronology so that we don't end on a low note. Get ready. You know what's coming.
