Red Carpet Report • VH1 Divas Celebrates Soul Event

On December 18th, the VH1 Divas Celebrates Soul event was held at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City. A lot of divas were present so... Lets see!

Singer Florence Welch donned an Antonio Berardi rise and fall dress from the 2012 Spring collection. The nude chiffon had leather details and shiny embroideries and was teamed with nude ankle-straps pumps. Florence's hair was down in a straigh style and she added a pop of colour with a red pout.

Mary J. Blige opted for an embroidered Michael Kors 2011 Fall gown. The nude gown featured a draped detail and was paired with glittery nude peep-toes. Mary J.'s hair was in her known asymmetrical bob and she wore a glossy pink lippie.

Jennifer Hudson donned a Francesco Scognamiglio Fall 2011 ensemble. Although this look is pretty diva, I hate it. The shiny material of the knit dress looks cheap and I don't like the collar. And then we have the embellished over-the-knee boots and they make JHud's legs look strange. Jennifer also debuted a new, shorter do and over-accessorized.

Jessie J also walked the red carpet. Jessie donned a embroidered and embellished gown by Falguni & Shane Spring 2012. Jessie J's gown is different from the runway version, it's extended and a flounced hemline was added. The singer's hair was in her usual black bob, which looked gorgeous with the gown. She kept her make-up very natural. Jessie wore matching shiny nail polish.

Queen Latifah presented at the VH1 event. The actress wore an one-shouldered Edition by Georges Chakra Fall 2011 gown. Queen teamed her embellished mermaid-gown with silver embellished sandals, which were revealed as her thigh-high split opened up. Her hair was in a tight knot and her make-up was kept very simple.
