A little rain didn’t stopViola Davis' style parade.
The train of Davis' gown on theGolden Globes 2023red carpet might have gotten soaked from the L.A. rain, but the actress was still all smiles while posing for photographers. Davis wore a custom, draped royal blue Jason Wu gown and paired the look with a silver clutch and amazing Chopard jewels. The L’Oréal Paris ambassador kept her glam monochromatic with blue eyeliner to play up the dress.
“Viola is wearing a royal blue gown and her hair is done in a big Afro, so I wanted to keep her makeup radiant but clean and simple,” makeup artist Sergio López-Rivera shared in a press release about the glam moment. “The final look is breezy and easygoing but sophisticated, perfect for theGolden Globes.”

López-Rivera used L’Oréal Paris Infallible Grip Eyeliner in “Intense Black” and “Turquoise” for her gorgeous eye. To finish the look, he used L’Oréal Paris Colour Riche Intense Volume Matte Lipstick in the shade “Le Wood Nonchalant.”

After a few years of virtual and different-than-normalGolden Globesceremonies, Davis has her moment to strut the red carpet yet again this year in a stylishly memorable look. For the 2021 ceremony, which Davis called into from home, shewore a beautiful and impactful gown.
The multi-hyphenate star wanted a dress that “spoke to her specifically as a Black woman,” according to her stylistElizabeth Stewart, so Davis and Stewart collaborated with Black designer Claude Kameni, the founder of Los Angeles-based brandLavie By CK. The dress featured a silk cotton African print from a fabric that is made in Kameni’s home country of Cameroon, where the designer’s love of fashion began.
“It’s all about rethinking glamour and couture on the red carpet in the age of diversity and inclusivity,” Stewart told PEOPLE in 2021. “It’s still an arena that needs cultural specificity.”
“Viola is royalty to me,” Stewart added.
