Yesterday, beautiful black celebrity women stepped out for the second annual Essence Black Women In Hollywood Luncheon. While some celebs like Halle glammed it out proper and some like Laila Ali opted to dress down in jeans, others chose the middle ground by wearing little tea dresses like the one you see on Sanaa Lathan, above.

I’m feeling some kind of way about this dress. Maybe it’s the bow? Or maybe I just don’t think it flatters her figure too well. I can’t decide. What do you think?

For 2024’s iteration of MadameNoire and HelloBeautiful’s annual series Women to Know, we knew we wanted to celebrate the people who help make the joys of film and television possible. To create art is to create magic. This year, we spotlight Hollywood Executive’s changing the face of cinema.
