On the Scene: The Black Women of Bond Tribute at the California African American Museum in Los Angeles

Halle Berry and Naomie Harris are recent black Bond beauties, but there are other African-American women who paved the way for them in the iconic film series. Last night, they gathered for the Black Women of Bond Tribute at the California African American Museum in Los Angeles.

Let’s get into the evening’s stylish ensembles!

Current Bond babe Naomie Harris was the lady in red in a long-sleeve embroidered Burberry mini dress in the fiery hue, anchored with $795 Casadei Sheer Sandals. She literally can do no wrong in the style department this Fall.

Former Playboy model and Live and Let Die star Gloria Hendry showed just how amazing 66 can look in a belted number with a front slit. Take notes kids!

Patron saint of the LWD, Lisa Raye wore…you guessed it! A white frock. I’m not a fan of the lace cardigan here: there are few things more chic than a white turtleneck dress after all.

Thoughts on the tribute and the looks at the momentous event?
