We love the style of Oscar-nominated screen actress and producer Viola Davis.
Ms Davis, 51, has been nominated as Best Supporting Actress for Fences. The August Wilson play, which was seen on the London stage with Lenny Henry, has been adapted for the screen and stars Denzel Washington.
British audiences may be familiar with Ms Davis from her role in the Oscar-nominated film, The Help, released in 2011. Ms Davis also received an Oscar-nomination and a BAFTA nomination for that role and won a clutch of Best Actress awards from myriad film organisations, including the prestigious African-American Film Critics and BET.
Much more slender and younger than the roles she plays (but then making actresses play older than their real age, and making actors play younger than they are, is a long-standing and sexist practise which is rife in Hollywood and has spread to British film and TV #AgeistCasting). As we were saying, slimmer and younger than the roles she plays, Viola Davis looks her best in softly structured clothes, which suit her frame. She has slim, firm arms, which she clearly enjoys putting on show. TBH, Viola, if we had arms like yours, we’d never wear sleeves!
A beautiful woman with dramatic colouring, she can get away with wearing most colours, but her skin glow and her eyes shine when she wears jewel tones or icy pastels.
Viola loves a statement cuff and we like the dangly earrings that bring a sparkle to her eyes – which is what jewellery should do for, ahem, a mature woman.
Steal her style by wearing the right colours for you, the colours that put you into focus, and by choosing dresses that showcase your assets. And add lippy and blusher in your best colour.
Which of Viola’s dresses is your favourite? We love them all!
