Broadway was giving life this past weekend as Othello opened Sunday, March 23, at the Barrymore Theater in New York City. And honey, trust—everybody who’s anybody pulled up.
The red carpet was serving serious looks!
Stars from everywhere came through, from former president Joe Biden and J.Lo to our faves Nicole Ari Parker, Danielle Brooks, and Nia Long. They weren’t just there for the legendary Denzel Washington holding down the lead role, but also for Atlanta’s very own Kandi Burruss, who produced the show.
A-listers didn’t just show up to see the play – they did so in style. The red carpet shined with trend and fashion, just like the glitz and glam of award shows.
We were gagging at all of the style moments.
Kandi Burrus Slays In Style Wearing Christian Siriano
Producer Kandi slayed like the woman of the night. She wore an over-the-top, sheer black wrapped Christian Siriano gown. The gown featured a halter-style top, strapless design, and a dramatic oval-shaped skirt.
Danielle Brooks stunned in a curve-hugging number featuring an abstract black chain-link print on a creamy base. Her glam was flawless, with big, voluminous curls giving goddess vibes and makeup that popped just right.

Nia Long kept it chic and effortlessly fly in an all-black moment. She rocked an oversized mini dress with statement sleeves and paired it with sheer tights and stilettos that said, “Yes, legs!” The black clutch and subtle jewelry elevated the look, reminding us why she’s forever style goals.
