American Music Awards 2018: Tracee Ellis Ross rocks Cameroonian design Lavie By CK

Tracee Ellis Ross brought the fashion house down as host of this year’s American Music Awards (AMA) in Los Angeles, California, October 10 wearing 10 outfits made by black designers, including Cameroonian, LAVIE by CK.

Tracee Ross is known for her edgy and editorial style and she killed every single look on stage at the AMAs.

Getting help from famous stylist Karla Welch, the Black-ish star walked into Tuesday night’s award show with not one, not two, not even nine like last year, but a mouth dropping 10 costume changes. As the two-time host proclaimed before the start of the show, the looks weren’t pulled solely for their style, either.

“I’ve featured black designers in all of my @AMAs press looks, and will do the same for all my show looks tonight!” she confirmed on Twitter ahead of her headline-sparking opening medley dance number.

“For the American Music Awards, from press to stage, I featured Black designers in my looks. Not every piece of what I wore was by a Black designer, but I wore a Black designer in every look and Pat McGrath on my face,” the star later explained on social media.

“It was the story I wanted to tell and Karla Welch made it happen. I was inspired by Issa Rae and Jason Rembert, who did it first at CFDA Awards back in June. I strongly believe in using my platform to shine light in directions I believe in, and I believe in, love, and celebrate my people.”
