Cardi B stuns at Hollywood impact awards in chic black ensemble

The artist got Hollywood Unlocked’s 2024 Inspiration Award at the June 21 awards.

Cardi B made a dramatic entrance at the Hollywood Impact Awards on Friday, June 21, showcasing her flair for fashion with an all-black ensemble that epitomized understated glamour.

A Statement Look:

The 31-year-old rapper arrived at the event in an oversized black blazer that grazed her thighs, layered over what appeared to be a black dress featuring a fitted top and a floor-length sheer skirt.

To complete her chic look, Cardi accessorized with sheer black gloves, strappy black heels, a dazzling diamond necklace, and several diamond-encrusted rings.

Known for her ever-evolving style, Cardi opted for long, straight hair with elegant side-swept bangs for the evening.

Her makeup was simple yet impactful, featuring deep red lipstick and a subtle smokey eye, perfectly complementing her sophisticated outfit. “The makeup makes the outfit!” Cardi told PEOPLE in May, celebrating NYX Professional Makeup’s 25th anniversary.

Award and Honors:

At the Beverly Hilton-hosted event, Cardi B was honored with the Inspiration Award, presented by Tiffany Haddish. Other notable honorees included actor Jonathan Majors, designer Christian Louboutin, and rapper Fat Joe.

The Hollywood Impact Awards recognize individuals for their contributions across various industries, including music, film, media, politics, social activism, and the creative arts.

Memorable Red Carpet Moments:

This isn’t the first time Cardi B has made waves on the red carpet. At the Met Gala on May 6, she was styled by Kollin Carter in a stunning Sensen Lii gown.

Despite facing some backlash for momentarily forgetting the Chinese designer’s name, she quickly clarified the situation on social media. Cardi also wowed at her Met Gala afterparty, changing into a custom red Revolve Atelier corset dress inspired by “runway corsetry and draping.”

Cardi B continues to captivate audiences not only with her music but also with her impeccable sense of style and glamour, making every red carpet appearance a moment to remember.
