Marsai Martin Delivers Old Hollywood Glamour in Dramatic Dress & Heels at NAACP Awards Red Carpet 2023
Marsai Martin made a striking arrival at the 54th annual NAACP Image Awards red carpet tonight.
Channeling old Hollywood glamour, Martin wore a dramatic black floor-length dress by Christian Siriano with a semi-long train, a long turtleneck and a triangular cutout over the chest. The dress also features two large, navy-blue puffs of silky taffeta fabric on each shoulder and wrapped asymmetrically over the actress’s hips.
The producer wore her hair tied up in a chic chignon with an elegant side bang. For accessories, Martin went with a pair of diamond statement earrings and a large, spiked diamond ring.
Martin’s heels were hidden by the long hem of the gown, but when it comes to the red carpet and similar media appearances, the “Mixed-ish” actress is never afraid to wear towering heels. The actress regularly dons strappy stilettos and high-platform boots from brands like Dolce & Gabbana, Gucci, Christian Louboutin and Jimmy Choo.

Martin has previously won six NAACP awards for her work in “Little” or “Black-ish”.
