If there’s anyone who knows how to throw a fashionable party, it’s GQ. This year’s GQ Man of the Year Party brought out some of the best-dressed Black stars in entertainment. From Anderson .Paak to Don Cheadle, the carpet was packed with style moments that ranged from classic tailoring to unexpected pops of color.
The celebration showcased what happens when serious style meets a room full of A-listers who actually know how to dress. Whether it was fly suits, standout dresses, or those little details that make an outfit sing, attendees came ready. Check out some of the night’s coolest looks, and catch up on what GQ Man of the Year Party style moments caught everyone’s attention.
Shaboozey
Shaboozey stayed true to his country roots with an all-black fit punctuated by turquoise jewelry. The cowboy hat was the perfect finishing touch—a reminder that he’s not checking a box, he’s living it.
Tyler James Williams
Tyler James Williams understands red carpet assignments in a way most people don’t. His black suit worked because of the fabric’s texture and the way he carried himself. That’s how you elevate basics.
Anderson .Paak
Anderson .Paak brought major Silk Sonic energy with a white pinstriped suit and red silky shirt. The whole package shines—he’s clearly having fun with fashion.
Don Cheadle
Don Cheadle kept things relaxed for the evening. When you’ve had the career he has, you earn the right to skip the fuss. His presence was enough.
Alton Mason
Model Alton Mason’s suit looks expensive because it probably is, but more importantly, it’s cut right. The silhouette does the work. That’s restraint done well.
Chris Rock
Chris Rock was honored at the event as a cover star and co-host for the 31st annual celebration. His film “Misty Green” is now streaming on Netflix.
Miguel
Singer Miguel arrived in all black, but the real story is that coat. He kept us guessing about what’s underneath, and honestly, that’s smart dressing.
Lamorne Morris
“Spider-Noir” star Lamorne Morris kept it simple with his black fit, and like Miguel, that coat deserves its own compliment.
Kendrick Sampson
“Michael” star Kendrick Sampson brought some much-needed color with his purple look. After a sea of black, this one stood out.
Amin Joseph
“The Greatest” and “Snowfall” star Amin Joseph’s tan suit gave off understated confidence. It’s a solid move if you’re trying to stand apart from the usual black-tie crowd.
Angel Reese
Olympic star Angel Reese showed that even though the title says “Man of the Year,” the women who attend know how to dress. Her look was absolutely fabulous.
Tracee Ellis Ross
Tracee Ellis Ross brought a colorful ensemble with standout shoes that felt distinctly hers. The messy hair and coordinated look showed she wasn’t trying too hard. She was just being herself, and that’s always the best fashion.
Jordan Chiles
Jordan Chiles wore a suit better than most of the men on this carpet. That’s all we’re saying.
Ayo Edebiri
Ayo Edebiri also chose a suit but went in a more playful direction with color and tone. The approach felt fresher somehow.
Halle Bailey
Halle Bailey brought the sparkle in black with emeralds and diamonds. The jewelry did the heavy lifting, and she let it.
Tinashe
Singer Tinashe kept things sparkly in a brown dress that works equally well for fall and the holidays. The timing is perfect.
Taylor Rooks
Taylor Rooks looks stunning. That’s not new, but it’s always worth noting.
Rosalind Eleazar
“Misty Green” star Rosalind Eleazar’s messy updo was the perfect complement to her fit. She got every detail right on this one.
