2016 Berlin International Film Festival: "Chi-Raq" Premiere Red Carpet Wish List

The social justice film Chi-Raq will be one of the films getting a gala premiere out of competition at the 2016 Berlin International Film Festival, which kicks off next week. I do not know if Academy Award winner Jennifer Hudson will be in attendance at the films big premiere since she is currently performing every night on Broadway in The Color Purple. If she does make the journey to Berlin I would love to see Jennifer wearing this ivory Marchesa Pre-Fall 2016 which is rendered in stretch crepe and features a sheath silhouette with a jewel neckline, gold beaded appliques along the bodice with illusion cutouts. I think that this gown would look absolutely amazing on this red carpet as Jennifer as been working a lot of edgy glam looks on the red carpet in the past year. I would finish this look with an Emm Kuo 'Nam Hai' peach and gold clutch which is made up of mother of pearl, brass, and oyster shell, a pair of gold Giuseppe Zanotti sandals, and a red lip to ensure that Jennifer has an absolutely amazing red carpet moment at the Berlin Film Festival.

Teyonah Parris has earned her star from playing the first major African-American character on the hit television series Mad Men. Since the conclusion of the show Teyonah has been working on a lot of social justice themed film with Chi-Raq being the latest. I am imagining that Teyonah will be the fashion plate at the films premiere at the Berlin International Film Festival as she has been getting quite a bit love from the fashion community. For this red carpet I would love to see Teyonah wearing this icy lilac Zuhair Murad Spring 2016 Couture strapless corseted ball gown. Teyonah is not afraid to wear big gowns but has not yet worn couture on the red carpet, and what better platform than a major film festival to don her first couture gown? Finish this look with a chic updo, a pair of dazzling diamond drop earrings, a silver clutch, and a pair of silver sandals and this look will be sexy and enchanting for Teyonah on the Berlin Film Festival red carpet.

Meryl Streep has been growing in her red carpet style over the past year but I am not so sure that Meryl will make many appearances on the red carpet during the Berlin International Film Festival. Meryl is the president of this years International jury and I am quite intrigued to see what she will be wearing when she does actually step out on the red carpet. I would love to see Meryl wearing this white sari inspired Elie Saab Spring 2016 Couture ensemble which featured and embroidered long sleeve button up blouse and ball skirt. I think that this would look beautiful on Meryl, even if she decided not to wear this scarf draped over her shoulder. I am hoping Meryl delivers on the Berlin International Film Festival red carpet and this would be a perfect look for her to wear.
