Best dressed lady of the night HANDS-DOWN!

An Oscar is not the only thing he won! M.A. won the red carpet for the fellas in this black-on-black-on black tailored perfection!

Dapper was his middle name! You can never go wrong with black-and-white contrast.

We were patiently waiting for that knockout naturalista moment and then AVA saved the day!
