## Ashanti in Christian Siriano

We have had a real up and down ride with Ashanti, have we not? This dress is not going to change the world -- it's not the innovation we have all waited for -- but it's doing what it needs to do EXTREMELY well. It's pretty and swirly and flattering, and glamorous, and there are no weird slits or cutouts or [vagina slings](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/fugshanti-2-02-2012/). It's just solidly good. HOORAY.

I can't tell if she's hugging herself with glee, or trying to sneak in a hoik.

This looks like it was torn from a spread on how to take your swimwear from day to night.

## Paula Patton in Moschino

Miraculously, these three different ideas all seem to work together as one masterplan.

I really like this and wish one of the photogs had directed him to swivel a little so that the white piping lined up. They're already yelling stuff; might as well make it helpful.

Oh, did I not warn you about the sheers? Oops. Well, there are sheers.

## La Tina Webb

Like, REALLY SHEER sheers. This is honestly just underpants. I hope she got an endorsement deal from whomever made that set.

## Parker McKenna Posey

That jumpsuit looks like everything is being VERY carefully taped in, but I'm barely looking because I'm having A Moment about her hair. It's so good. I want to know all about her curl products.

## Crystal Hayslett

This outfit is trying a lot of things, but none of them with its whole heart.

## Tisha Campbell-Martin

I think this might have been more effective with less? Minidress and sleeves OR long skirt and simpler top?

## Tichina Arnold

This is better, but I likewise think maybe just the jacket or just the pants? I could be talked out of that, though. The pattern is just a little visually trippy in places, which is why I was wondering about less of it.

## 21 Savage in Balmain

This is SO monochrome that I almost didn't notice that he's wearing a crossbody bag. FINALLY, men admit that sometimes they have shit to carry that's more than just a pocketful. Although his looks suspiciously flat. Unless he's carrying a lot of important legal documents that have to be guarded with his life, I suspect he has nothing in there.

## El De Barge

He's just happy to be there, and glad he'd bought that new coat at The Gap. (Sincerely, the beans have almost this exact one from there.)

I am easily wooed by a gold suit.

AND by a patterned suit.

He looks warm. I am actually fascinated by his shoes, which seem to have a strap over the laces for some reason, as if they need to be locked down.

## Leon Bridges

I, too, wish for peace.

This is a 2019 LaQuan Smith dress featuring vintage mug shots of women. At the time he said he was inspired by women who commit crimes, and what they might wear while she is gallivanting around doing it, but honestly, it hits as a more serious statement than that.

## Jazmine Sullivan in Herve Leger

This dress is swallowing up her neck.

I wish he'd fully committed to the green coat. Oscar the Grouch is a hero, after all.

I'm into this -- it's like a formal way to wear his favorite cardigan.

## Connie Orlando

If this is not the Gucci recreation of the Tom Ford suit, then it's a knockoff thereof; either way, I think we're going to see a LOT of this exact style in the next couple months.

## Ari Lennox

I am running out of ways to say, "I hope she tipped her waxer/taped down her slit/did not walk past any rogue air vents."
