While the rest of the fashionistas are twiddling their thumbs, Ms. Washington is setting the fashion trail ablaze with her unique trendsetting style. With a style that has evolved throughout her film career (remember Save the Last Dance?), her aura of timeless elegance and class shines through her wardrobe selections.
From fresh faced newbie…
…to dazzling diva!
Ms. Washington has evolved from the girl next door to the diva in the big city. She effortlessly carries off the frocks of Jason Wu, Oscar de la Renta, Stella McCartney, Proenza Schouler, Lanvin, Yves Saint Laurent, and Prada, to name a few. She has subtly emerged as a fashion icon and has substance underneath the beauty. A GW alum like myself, she is a vocal and passionate advocate of various social causes such as the Creative Coalition, the Rape Foundation, and the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund. It’s nice to know that she can look great and complete complex sentences simultaneously…
