MUST READ: 7 Fashion Frontrunners We’re Watching This Award Season
Da’Vine Joy Randolph wins ‘Best Supporting Actress’ and HB’s ‘Best Dressed’
Da’Vine Joy Randolph, who won the award for Best Supporting Actress wearing a black velvet Jovana Louis gown, was one of the night’s biggest winners. The Holdovers star has been racking up awards over the past few weeks, further cementing her front-runner status in the industry race toward the Oscars. Da’Vine’s look screamed “award-winning” from head to toe. The actress complimented her velvet dress with a surprising blonde wig hair transformation and a makeup look that her artist, Sheika Daley, described as “soft Hollywood glamour.” Giving the new blonde bombshell a “soft contour and a beautiful peachy glow,” Sheika used Lancome products for Da’Vine’s look. The Bear’s Ayo Edebiri was another of the night’s top winners, giving a look on the red carpet. The “Best Actress in a Comedy Series” awardee wore a vintage menswear cream suit from The Row.Red Carpet Rundown: Looks We Love From The 29th Critics Choice Awards
When it comes to trends, black, cream, and white were the colors of choice for the evening.

Danielle Brooks and her stylist, Jennifer Austin, went all the way off with their whimsy, dramatic red carpet moment. While Oprah reminded us that it is still “The Color Purple” season.
