On Sunday, the 2024 EE British Academy Film Arts Awards gathered a handful of this year’s illustrious nominees for a night of celebration across the pond. The event saw a handful of fly fits both on the carpet and at the afterparty. Because we love to see us put it on at any time whether domestically or abroad, here’s a look at a handful of special sightings.
These Black Celebs Looked Absolutely Beautiful at the 2024 BAFTA Awards
Stars like Colman Domingo, Kingsley Ben-Adir, Idris Elba and more graced the carpets with their Sunday best, so let's take a glance!
Colman Domingo
This “Rustin” star dresses so well, we had to include him twice — first for his red carpet look and again for the afterparty ensemble.
Fantasia
Forget “The Color Purple” — star Fantasia stunned as the lady in red for the special event.
Ayo Edebiri
Pantone’s color of the year for 2024 and white feathers? YES CHEF and yes, Ayo!
Da’Vine Joy Randolph
What a divine sight it is to see Da’Vine Joy Randolph also sporting Pantone’s Color of the Year for 2024.
Kingsley Ben-Adir
If there’s one thing you don’t have to worry about when it comes to “Bob Marley: One Love” star Kingsley Ben-Adir, it’s him showing up less than dapper to any event.
Lashana Lynch
I don’t know about you but Lashana Lynch will be my forever “Woman King” and this look just screams REGAL.
Idris Elba
The name’s Elba, Idris Elba, and what a sight he is in white. Per usual.
Sabrina Elba
You can never go wrong with a “little black dress,” but this number from Sabrina Elba turned that simple concept into a high-fashion one and we’re here for it!
Naomi Campbell
Naomi Campbell could wear a paper sack and still make it look good at this point. While we’ve definitrly seen her in better looks, she’s still slaying better than most people on their best days.
Rege-Jean Page
Rege-Jean Page, we know you’ve evolved into a “Gray Man” who occasionally fights in dungeons with dragons but we’d be lying if we said you wouldn’t be our forever #BridgertonBae. Look at how nicely you clean up...we always love to see it, your Grace.
Cord Jefferson
You know what compliments Cord Jefferson’s simple yet stylish tux? Some gold (a.k.a. a BAFTA) to match. Looking good, Cord!
Taylor Russell
If there’s one young star that always seems to understand the assignment at the same level as Zendaya, it’s Taylor Russell. She just GETS IT.
Sheila Atim
All Dirt Roads May Taste of Salt for star Sheila Atim, but its clear those roads still lead to the Renaissance given all this beautiful silver.
Sophie Wilde
What’s black, blue and gorgeous all over? Sophie Wilde’s look at the 2024 BAFTAs.
Adjoa Andoh
That’s our Lady Danbury right there! Still looking like the queen of all queens!
June Givanni
How fitting that June Givanni would wear gold to this event! Was it a foreshadowing, a manifestation or just a good look in general? Our vote is all three.
Barbie Kyagulanyi
Barbie quite literally is the perfect name for Kyagulanyi because between her face card and this dress—we couldn’t think of a more picture perfect person.
