Queen Latifah Sparkles at the 2019 Oscars!

Queen Latifah sparkled as she presented one of the Best Motion Picture nominees for the 2019 Oscar presentation. The Oscar red carpet featured unique silhouettes in metallics on Jennifer Lopez, Amy Adams and Emma Stone.

I collaborated with designer Michael Costello to create a classic silhouette using black organza and shimmering pave tone on tone revealing just the right amount of skin.

Guess who I had the pleasure of partying with this evening? The beautiful Jazmine Sullivan who performed at the Bally’s Flagship store opening in Beverly Hills. The gala was a fundraiser for the DKMS foundation (deletebloodcancer.org).

The event brought out entertainment, fashion and music tastemakers hosted by Grammy Award winning producer Randy Jackson, Katharine Harf Co-founder of DKMS and Claudio Cividino, Bally Americas CEO.

The night was filled with great music, food and champagne with a percentage of Bally purchases going to DKMS.  Nice to have some shopping time for me!
