The December 6 world premiere event culminates a few weeks-long media tour where Oprah, Fantasia, Taraji P. Henson, Danielle Brooks, and several other starring cast members slayed at every stop. The cast’s showing at the premiere was just as trendsetting and posh.
Fantasia stunned again in a black and white tailored polka-dot suit dress from Sergio Hudson. Taraji chose the same color palette in a dramatic, artsy, sculpted gown with a dramatic train.
Queen Oprah showed off her sleek, trim figure in a poppin’ purple dress. And Danielle Brooks also rocked the color as well with a mix-moda draped satin and sequin corset dress. Halle Bailey broke from other castmates, rocking a voluminous red gown with a criss-crossed halter-style top.
Other celebrity favorites, like Ciara and H.E.R, also graced the premiere’s carpet-looking fly. A-listers spotted include Alicia Keys, Tyler Perry, Lupita Nyong’o, Deon Cole, Chloe Bailey, and David Oyewo.
Ciara rocked an oversized white two-piece outfit. Her blouse flowed openly, boldly sharing her growing belly glowing with gold specs, glitter, and flakes.
