All eyes were on Zendaya at the 54th NAACP Image Awards on Saturday night.
The Euphoria actress dazzled in a black and neon green vintage Versace gown from the 2002 spring couture collection. Styled by designer Law Roach, she wore her hair in classic golden-era Hollywood loose waves and with glittering Bulgari jewellery. Later in the evening, she changed into a white Prada two-piece look, with a bralette top and full-length skirt.
Also wearing vintage Versace was Gabrielle Union. The actress, who attended the event with her sportsman husband, Dwyane Wade, wore a circus-print gown from 1989. Wade was also wearing a Versace look.
The event, which honours entertainers, athletes and writers of colour, was hosted by Queen Latifah in Pasadena, California. Angela Bassett won entertainer of the year and attended wearing a white jumpsuit with statement sleeves by Laura Basci.
Other stars who stood out sartorially include Kerry Washington in Fendi, Yara Shahidi in Giambattista Valli, Serena Williams in Brandon Blackwood and Janelle Monae in Cong Tri. Actress Sujata Day wore a lehenga by Indian fashion designer Tarun Tahiliani.
American actress Sheryl Lee Ralph wore a bright orange gown by Pistis Ghana. She was styled for the event by her daughter, Ivy-Victoria Maurice, who also attended, wearing a metallic gown by Lebanese-Italian fashion designer Tony Ward.

What is a robo-adviser?
Robo-advisers use an online sign-up process to gauge an investor’s risk tolerance by feeding information such as their age, income, saving goals and investment history into an algorithm, which then assigns them an investment portfolio, ranging from more conservative to higher risk ones.
These portfolios are made up of exchange traded funds (ETFs) with exposure to indices such as US and global equities, fixed-income products like bonds, though exposure to real estate, commodity ETFs or gold is also possible.
Investing in ETFs allows robo-advisers to offer fees far lower than traditional investments, such as actively managed mutual funds bought through a bank or broker. Investors can buy ETFs directly via a brokerage, but with robo-advisers they benefit from investment portfolios matched to their risk tolerance as well as being user friendly.
Many robo-advisers charge what are called wrap fees, meaning there are no additional fees such as subscription or withdrawal fees, success fees or fees for rebalancing.

Tearful appearance
Chancellor Rachel Reeves set markets on edge as she appeared visibly distraught in parliament on Wednesday.
Legislative setbacks for the government have blown a new hole in the budgetary calculations at a time when the deficit is stubbornly large and the economy is struggling to grow.
She appeared with Keir Starmer on Thursday and the pair embraced, but he had failed to give her his backing as she cried a day earlier.
A spokesman said her upset demeanour was due to a personal matter.
