Dua Lipa
Dua Lipa elevated the Little Black Dress as she donned a sleeveless black column dress with a thigh-high slit and statement buckle at the neckline from Tom Ford. Lipa worked with stylist Lorenzo Posocco to create her look for the evening. Lipa, along with Camila Cabello, Billie Lourd and Lily Gladstone, awarded more than $1 million in university scholarships to students participating in THR’s Women in Entertainment Mentorship Program, now in its 14th year.
Ariana DeBose
With her current Disney film “Wish” in theaters, in which DeBose voices the lead character, she looked to Disney’s Cinderella blue for her outfit inspiration. Rather than a full-on gown, the actress opted for a satin shirt and form-fitting skirt combination from Rowen Rose. Stylist duo Zadrian and Sarah created DeBose’s look for the event.
Helen Mirren
Veteran actress Helen Mirren took a minimalist approach to style with a twist, as she wore a black Gucci dress with a fishnet neckline and sleeves and a white statement collar and cuffs. She accessorized the ensemble with a classic black Tod’s handbag. Stylist Lee Harris worked with Mirren to select her ensemble.
Kathy Hilton
Kathy Hilton, who has made reality TV waves in recent years as a cast member of “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,” wore a red minidress with bows on the skirt from Valentino to attend The Hollywood Reporter Women in Entertainment Gala. She completed her look with red pointy-toe heels and a red shoulder bag.
Adele
Adele took home the Sherry Lansing Leadership Award, presented by Mirren. For the honor, the singer went for power dressing, wearing a black and white pin-striped suit with asymmetric lapel detail from Schiaparelli. Jamie Mizrah styled Adele for her honor.
Lucy Hale
Actress Lucy Hale took a power dressing cue from Adele. The actress and singer wore a Dior cruise 2024 gray wool plaid waistcoat and pants, a white cotton shirt and a black cotton tie. She accessorized with a Dior Lady D-joy black bag.
