Erykah Badu, honored with the Fashion Icon Award, arrived in a custom Thom Browne ensemble that merged sharp tailoring with slouchy cool. Her look, crowned with a shimmering gemstone headpiece, embodied the night’s message: fashion should provoke, surprise, and inspire. As always, Badu’s style stood apart. Cynthia Erivo made an impression in a black velvet gown by Zac Posen, created with Gap. The hooded design and sharp shoulders gave the look a bold structure, offering a modern spin on classic elegance. Keeping accessories minimal, Erivo let the outfit’s silhouette speak for itself.
Kylie Jenner took her turn in the spotlight wearing Haider Ackermann’s couture design for Jean Paul Gaultier—a dramatic spiked-skirt gown pulled from the Spring 2023 runway. Known for her affinity for archival fashion, Jenner’s choice echoed one of the most talked-about collections of recent years. Similarly, Addison Rae played with nostalgia, arriving in a playful Thom Browne look, cheekily holding a conch shell to her ear—a reference to her song “Aquamarine.” Rae’s whimsical energy reminded onlookers that fashion can be fun while making an impact.
