The Item: Yara Shahidi AMAs 2017 chic Prada ensembles. The Black-ish starlet showcased her fierce style while in attendance for the 2017 American Music Awards. This year’s ceremony was broadcast from Los Angeles, California.

You Asked: Yara is too beautiful for words. Her spirit, her natural beauty and her fearlessness with her clothes is all something I admire. Last night, I noticed that her outfits looked the same but different. Wasn’t sure if she had changed or not, but she look cute. Was her looks by the same people or something?

Ask and Tell: Yara Shahidi AMAs 2017 Prada Looks of the Night

The Verdict: Thank you for the fashionable question and Yara is a total knockout! We are so proud of all of her success and can’t wait for her new spinoff show! Nevertheless, we digress (wink, wink).

Miss Shahidi last night did have an outfit change, so then you are very correct in your style observation. Furthermore, the reason her two fun looks favored is because they were by the same fashion label, Prada.

For the red carpet, Yara wore a straight off the runway look from the Prada Spring 2016 RTW (ready to wear) collection. Moreover, as the night progressed celebrity stylist Jason Bolden switched up Shahidi’s AMAs couture game with a stunning custom Prada ensemble.

Ask and Tell: Ciara AMAs 2017 Alexandre Vauthier Couture Look

Arianne Suggs November 19, 2017November 19, 2017Leave a Comment

The Item: Ciara AMAs 2017 Alexandre Vauthier Couture Look. CiCi set the red carpet ablaze in her hot noire designer garb while attending the 2017 American Music Awards ceremony held in Los Angeles, California.

You Asked: Yasss Ciara! She snatched my whole wig then through it back at me! Please tell me she is wearing. I honestly think since becoming a mom she has come into her own especially with her clothes. She looks amazing and I hope that she gives us an album soon.

Ask and Tell: Ciara AMAs 2017 Alexandre Vauthier Couture Look

The Verdict: Thank you for the awesome question and we concur… we want a new Ciara album and she also definitely looked like one hot mama tonight! Mrs. Wilson rocked a sexy LBD (little black dress) by the exquisite Alexandre Vauthier. The couture design hails from the fashion label’s Fall 2017 collection.

Ciara kept her stylish ensemble pretty close to the original runway look which included a very chic pair of knee high noire boots. So then, what was the difference? Ciara’s “wet” hairstyle which we thought added even more sultry allure to her red carpet OOTD! Therefore, major shout out to her stylists Rob Zangardi and Mariel Haenn.

You Asked: Just sent the picture as asked. Hope you can let me know about the dress. Tracee had so many outfit changes that it made my head spin! But I loved everything that she wore tonight. There was just something about that sparkling autumn looking one though.

I normally would not like such a busy dress, but this one really caught my eye. So details please!

Ask and Tell: Tracee Ellis Ross AMAs 2017 Ronald van der Kemp Gown

The Verdict: Yes, Tracee Ellis Ross certainly brought it for this year’s American Music Awards! Her stylist Karla Welch put her in a plethora of luxurious high-end designs. The one you are referring to in particular is by Ronald van der Kemp.

Furthermore, it is interesting that you mentioned that the gown had an “autumn” feel because it is from the Ronald van der Kemp Fall 2017 collection. Therefore, it is very fitting that the gown incorporates such a rich, warm hue reminiscent of the season.
