The Best and Worst Dressed on the Soul Train Music Awards Red Carpet
The fashion at the Soul Train Music Awards was colorful, creative, and sometimes a little out there. Here are our picks for the best and worst dressed on the red carpet.
The Best
The best dressed at the 2017 Soul Train Music Awards were dripping in designer labels and shimmering in sequins. From head to toe, these celebrities brought their A-game to the red carpet. Let’s take a look at the best dressed of the night.
Ledisi
We’re so here for Ledisi’s style! The singer rocked a yellow and white print floor-length dress with billowing sleeves. She wore her hair in an updo with tendrils framing her face. Ledisi topped off her look with hoop earrings and bangles. We love how she brought some drama to the red carpet!
H.E.R.
The R&B singer slayed the red carpet in a snakeskin-print jumpsuit with a plunging neckline by Christopher Kane. She completed her look with sexily tousled hair and statement earrings.
Yara Shahidi
Yara Shahidi was one of the best dressed on the Soul Train Awards red carpet. The actress wore a beautiful black and white gown with a train that flowed behind her as she walked. She also wore her hair in a sleek updo and kept her makeup simple, allowing her natural beauty to shine through.
The Worst
While there were some great fashion choices on the red carpet at this year’s Soul Train Music Awards, there were also a few missteps. Let’s take a look at the worst dressed celebrities of the night.
Toni Braxton
Toni Braxton was one of the female music legends who performed at the Soul Train Music Awards, but her red carpet look was not on par with her musical talent. The 52-year-old singer wore a nude illusion dress that was missing a large chunk of fabric in the middle, revealing her stomach and ample cleavage. The lace detailing on the frock also did her no favors as it made her look even more naked than she already was.
Tamar Braxton
Tamar Braxton is one of the most popular faces on reality television, but that doesn’t mean she always gets it right when it comes to her red carpet style. The “Braxton Family Values” star hit the red carpet at the Soul Train Music Awards in Las Vegas on Sunday night, and she definitely missed the mark with her outfit choice.
Braxton wore a black-and-white floral print dress that would have been fine if it had stopped there. But she decided to add a pair of black tights with white polka dots, which ruined the look. She also carried a black-and-white polka dot clutch and wore her hair in a half-up, half-down style with curls.
Lil Kim
Lil Kim took the term “naked dress” to a whole new level when she hit the red carpet at the Soul Train Music Awards. The 39-year-old rapper wore a completely see-through dress that left little to the imagination — and unfortunately, her choice of underwear left a lot to be desired.
