Gabrielle Union was a vision, as always, stepping onto the red carpet for the 2025 Vanity Fair Oscar Party in a dress that needs no introduction.

One glance at those golden flower embellishments wrapping around this sleek black column dress, and you instantly know this is a Carolina Herrera Fall 2025 dress. The collection is barely a month old, yet we’ve already seen it shine on Amy Adams and Amanda Seyfried, making this the third outing of these designs.

But Gabrielle’s interpretation? By far the most glamorous yet. The golden floral appliqués pop even more against her radiant skin, and the styling is sheer perfection. A Jean Schlumberger by Tiffany & Co. necklace, rings, and a Tiffany Forever band add just the right amount of sparkle without overpowering the dress’s statement design.

With looks 20, 23, and 26 already claimed, the only question left is—who’s going to bring us look 21?
