Tracee Ellis Ross arrived to the 2020 E! People’s Choice Awards to rightfully claim the Fashion Icon Award on Sunday night in Los Angeles.

Ahead of the ceremony, Ross wowed on the red carpet in an elegant chocolate suit by Schiaparelli that featured gold accents. The wide-legged ensemble covered her camel-colored pumps from Christian Louboutin; the pair retails for $695 at Net-a-Porter.

The “Black-ish” star accessorized the look with dangling earrings and warm glam. She opted for a deep red lip and styled her hair in retro-like finger waves and sleek braid.
