Quinta Brunson's Most Stunning Red Carpet Looks

Quinta Brunson has blazed her own trail on the red carpet in a series of stunning looks that left our jaws on the floor. The "Abbott Elementary" and "A Black Lady Sketch Show" actor has been open about the struggles of finding event outfits that flatter her enviable figure, telling InStyle, "Not only am I 4-foot-11, [but] I'm 4-foot-11 with breasts and a butt. And that's just the cardinal sin: to be short and have the nerve to have any type of curve." But she's proven there's room for everyone to have fun with fashion.

"It's another extension of me showing who I am without talking. More and more, I start to hate talking as I go further in my journey. Things like fashion can help you say something without saying anything," she continued of the thought she puts into her outfit choices. She added that she was more than an actress, producer, writer, or showrunner. She wants what she wears to represent who she is as a person. And Brunson has certainly done that because her red carpet looks have been on fire.

Quinta Brunson clearly understood the assignment at the WACO Wearable Art Gala in 2022. The event is all about expressing yourself and pushing the boundaries of fashion, and Brunson did that in a feathered, green mini dress (that made her legs look super long) with a beaded decolletage and bejewelled headdress.

The theme was Harlem Nights, with a focus on the '20s through the '50s. The star's outfit gave an important nod to the Harlem Renaissance via her vintage, flapper, jazz-esque vibe.

For the 2024 Environmental Media Association Awards Gala, Quinta Brunson had us doing a double take in her stunning champagne embellished strapless gown. The fashion diva gave a nod to the sheer clothing trend that had been huge since 2023 and served a masterclass in pulling off a floor-length gown under five feet.

Her bare decolletage and short hair, coupled with the dress sitting lower, showed a little skin on her top half, so the garment didn't overwhelm her small frame. Simultaneously, the strategically placed sequins complemented her shape, giving her a sense of timeless elegance and beauty.

Quinta Brunson proved again that she always knows how to dress for the event she's attending. At the 2023 Billboard Women In Music event, she wore an embellished, bold, animal print, halterneck maxi dress with a train.

The golden shades looked stunning against her warm skin tone, and the figure-hugging silhouette highlighted her curves elegantly. We also love how Brunson pulled her hair into a high, glam ponytail, which gave her aesthetic an extra dose of fierce glam while letting us see the dress's thin straps, allowing her to shine from head to toe (literally).

Though Quinta Brunson has proven herself to be the queen of red carpet dresses, she knows how to make a co-ord work, too. On the BAFTA TV Tea Party red carpet, she once again embraced the sheer trend with a fabulously risqué see-through, black button down under a classic, white, square print blazer and mini skirt.

Paired with her open-toed black heels, the look perfectly demonstrated the sandwich method of styling. Smartly opting for a super short skirt highlighted her legs and made her appear taller.

Quinta Brunson showed us how to rock the sheer trend yet again at the 2024 Vanity Fair Oscars Party when she turned up the glamour in an asymmetric neckline, silver dress. Metallics had been trending since summer 2023, so the actor was on-trend in two ways.

This garment made Brunson the poster child for good tailoring, as it perfectly hugged her curves and showcased her hourglass figure, while the thigh-high slit added the perfect hint of flirty and sexy to her elegant aesthetic. Queen of sheer? That's Quinta Brunson.
