The Dictator rules: What’s your act and when’s the show? Anyway, which sequinned jumpsuit are you asking about? American actress, model and television host Tracee Ellis Ross has worn more than a few in her time in the public eye. I assume you’re referring to the one she wore to the American Music Awards that took place on October 9.

Tracee Ellis Ross wore 12 incredible outfits to the American Music Awards, each one featuring something made by a black designer. Picture: Instagram / @traceeellisross

Among the 12 incredible outfits she donned as host of the evening, there was a gorgeous black sequin jumpsuit by Nicolas Jebran topped with a custom Dapper Dan x Gucci cape. Although it was stunning, your takeaway should have been that every outfit included something made by black designers. Also, how impressive was her dancing! Other designers showcased on the night included Selam Ghirmay Fessahaye, Pyer Moss, Shanel Campbell, CD Greene, Sergio Hudson, Lavie by CK (Claude Kameni), Olivier Rousteing (Balmain), Deshon and Cushnie.

So, where to buy yours without having to commission a designer to the stars? We’ve found a lovely one by Parosh in navy sequins (HK$3,358; farfetch.com). Temperley London has the ladylike Olina white-and-silver sequinned tulle, cropped jumpsuit (HK$9,660; Net-a-Porter). Dsquared2 makes one that leaves nothing to the imagination and yet is covered from its turtleneck down to the ankles (HK$19,359; luisaviaroma.com). If you must go cheap, check out the black sequin shirt jumpsuit at missguided.com (HK$705).
