On Sunday night, Ciara didn’t just host—she owned the room. The “Level Up” singer led the Black Women in Excellence Dinner at London’s Isabel Mayfair. She arrived in a silky gold outfit that nailed the vibe: sleek, powerful, and seriously cool.
Silky Vest, Mini Skirt, and Platforms

Underneath, she layered a deep black plunge tank, adding contrast and balance to the shine. Together, the pieces made the outfit feel polished and bold.
She finished it with black platform boots (hello, height!) and a long diamond chain necklace that she wrapped around her neck like a glitzy scarf, complete with a dangling cross. We love that cool-girl energy.
Who Would Wear It?

Think fashion week energy with a splash of Y2K glam—very much in line with today’s TikTok style stars and the celeb-approved rise of the “it’s a set, but make it fashion” trend.
The gold-on-gold moment also taps into that early-2000s R&B nostalgia. Fans of icons like Destiny’s Child, Toni Braxton, and Ashanti will get the reference—but it’s also updated for 2025 with clean lines and statement jewelry.
Ciara proves once again she understands the assignment—hosting a room full of excellence in a look that was equal parts power and play.
