Taraji P. Henson Exudes Confidence in Donna Karen At the TIME Gala

Styled by Wayman + Micah, the ornate dress wrapped around Henson’s neck and featured a floral embellishment on the neckline and an intricate sequin design that added pizazz to the look. Feathers adorned the bottom of the floor-length dress and covered Henson’s Alexandre Birman heels. The Hidden Figures alum accessorized her look with JACOB & CO. drop earrings, a glamorous diamond ring, and an elegant updo. Her natural glam makeup completed her luxurious getup and emitted a fresh glow.
