Who can resist a cape?

This is FANTASTIC on her; good for you, Dior. I'm so PROUD. (The shoes are also to die for.)

## Amara La Negra

I don't have a credit for this gown -- it's not on her Instagram, nor that of her stylist -- but this look is dramatic and great on her.

## Andra Day in Giorgio Armani

Speaking of dramatic and great.

She is so pretty and likeable, and great on *Insecure*, but this is a bit...bridesmaidal?

## Danielle Brooks in custom Michael Costello

Danielle Brooks was recently on Project Runway: All Stars as a guest judge, and she looked FANTASTIC. But this, to me, feels like she and PR alum Michael Costello got together and decided to knock off a Marchesa look, and it just doesn't hang together, nor do her justice.

I like this, but -- hear me out -- would it work slightly better if someone came along and took the straps (and ergo everything else) up, like, one inch?

## Susan Kelechi Watson

This is SO glam that I almost don't mind the Hint of Hotpants right there. (I said "almost.")

## Miles Brown

But come on. BEST DRESSED.
