The red carpet for Warner Bros' upcoming film, The Color Purple, did not disappoint, with incredible looks from the entire cast and additional guests. We saw plenty of on-brand purple dresses and suits, as well as other bright shades.

The Color Purple is a musical adaptation of Alice Walker's novel of the same name, which was previously made into a film in 1985. It follows the life-long struggles of an African-American woman living in the South in the early 1900s, and is a beloved classic.

This adaptation of The Color Purple stars Halle Bailey, Danielle Brooks, and Fantasia Barrino. Among the producers of this star-studded film are some big names, including Steven Spielberg, Oprah Winfrey, and Quincy Jones. So, as you can expect, the red carpet was filled to the brim with celebrities last night!

But the true star of the night was Ciara, who saw her almost-due pregnancy bump as a chance to create a bold look. The singer wore a white suit with a cape, that opened around her stomach—à la Rihanna. Her exposed stomach was covered in gold dustings; a true masterpiece!
