Last night marked a first for fashion giant, Versace, as the brand held its very first Pre-Fall runway show at the American Stock Exchange in New York City. The front row was packed with black royalty, dressed to the nines and giving the models on the catwalk a serious run for their money. Stars in attendance included Ciara, Lupita Nyong’o, Tracee Ellis Ross, Kanye West, 2 Chainz, Young Thug, Lala, and more, and they did not come to play.

CIARA

Ciara came through with long and luxe, bone-straight tresses styled by her longtime hairstylist, Cesar Ramirez. The sleek installation was parted in the middle and cascaded down past her hips for the perfect amount of over the top slayage. According to details shared on Ramirez’s Instagram, Ciara’s locks were styled with the Balmain Hair Couture Leave-In Conditioning Spray ($41.00, store.balmainhair.com), Thermal Protection Spray ($40.00, store.balmainhair.com), and Argan Moisturizing Elixir ($47, store.balmainhair.com). If you’re balling on a non-Balmain budget, we love the Creme Of Nature Coconut Milk Detangling Leave-In Conditioner ($3.79, target.com) for moisture. Shea Moisture’s Jamaican Black Castor Oil Strengthen & Restore Thermal Protectant ($11.99, sheamoisture.com) is a great option to shield your hair from the heat of the blow dryer or flat iron, and the Moroccanoil Glimmer Shine ($28.00, moroccanoil.com) gives a nice finishing sheen to your look.

LUPITA NYONG’O

Lupita Nyong’o rocked a bold makeup look with a lovely plum-colored blush and lip combination. Try Black Up Cosmetics Blush in Shade 03 ($26.50, blackupcosmetics.com) and CoverGirl Queen Collection Soft Matte Lipstick in the shade Plum Palace ($9.55, walmart.com). Like a true Queen, Lupita wore gold jewels all over her hair, which appeared to be in mini twists or braids. For a similar adorned crown, check out these hair cuffs for locs, braids and twists ($3.79, amazon.com).

TRACEE ELLIS ROSS

Tracee is always a style and beauty favorite, and she did not disappoint. The actress’ signature curly locks were pulled back into a sleek low bun that let her makeup be the star of the show. Makeup artist Matin chose a tangerine palette for the actress’ lips and eyes, taking the color into the inner tear duct for an unexpected pop of color that contrasted beautifully with her yellow tassel earrings. Try the Clinique Chubby Stick Moisturizing Lip Colour Balm in Oversized Orange ($18.50, clinique.com) for a similar look.

TRACEE ELLIS ROSS

Ross wore a navy ruched velvet dress by, you guessed it, Versace. Ruched detailing is very flattering on a range of body types, and looks great on fuller-figured women to accentuate curves. If you’re a plus-size beauty, try this vintage style navy ruched number from Unique Vintage ($108, unique-vintage.com).

LALA

Lala‘s Versace over the knee boots were definitely made for walking (and stunting). She paired them with this Versace Faux Wrap Dress ($1,199.98, nordstrom.com) and purple locks styled by Netty Jordan.  Her long-sleeved, keyhole front dress is a great option when you want to keep it more reserved, but still show some cleavage. Try this keyhole bodycon dress from Asos ($35.00, asos.com) for an affordable option. If you’re down for the splurge, jazz it up with this Veronica Beard Linette Vanchetta Double-Buckle Leather Belt ($395, neimanmarcus.com). For an affordable option, go with this Michael Kors Lock Chain Belt ($33.75, nordstrom.com).

2 CHAINZ & KESHA WARD

Newlyweds Kesha Ward and 2 Chainz came through looking like #couplegoals in their Versace fits. Prints, prints, prints, everywhere, but somehow, the two pull it off. The rapper wore Versace Black Medusa Biggie Sunglasses ($295.00, versace.com).

KANYE WEST, YOUNG THUG & 2 CHAINZ

Also in attendance were Kanye West and Young Thug who posed for this flick with 2 Chainz. The three rappers were all smiles in Versace. Kanye was definitely the most toned-down of the trio in a simple but oversized navy blazer jacket. Young Thug stood out in the crowd, rocking a highlighter shade of green.

MARY J BLIGE

The “No More Drama” singer focused on her shoe game, choosing the Versace Pillow Talk Wild Baroque Boots ($1,075, versace.com) to pair with her mock croc print mini dress. If you’re into the faux crocodile print, try this Joy Metallic Croc Dress by Rachel Zoe ($425, shoprachelzoe.com).

MARY J BLIGE

Celebrity makeup artist D’Andre Michael kept MJB’s makeup soft and neutral, with a gorgeous pinky-nude lip that complimented her golden hair beautifully. For a similar lip shade, try Velvet Teddy Matte Lipstick by MAC ($18.50, maccosmetics.com). Apply a bit of clear gloss over top for a hint of shine like Mary’s.

TEYANA TAYLOR

Teyana Taylor showed up turning heads in this Versace SS19 ensemble of a crystal embroidered tulle floral blouse and leggings under a leather mini skirt. Talk about a look! I’m not sure if I could pull off the floral leggings in real life, but a leather skirt is always a yes. Try this faux patent leather mini ($22.90, Forever21.com), or this sister option if you’re fuller on the bottom half ($32, forever21.com).

TEYANA TAYLOR

I’m loving Teyana’s soft-glam beat created by makeup artist, Renee Garnes. It’s giving me major 90’s vibes with the ombre, brown-lined lips. To recreate her pout, use a brown liner a few shades deeper than your complexion to line the perimeter of your lips and feather the color inwards, leaving the center bare. Try MAC Chestnut Lip liner ($18, maccosmetics.com). Once your liner is applied, apply a nude lipstick or even just a clear gloss over the center of the lips.
