Misty Copeland attended the 2021 Glamour Women of the Year Awards in New York last night in style.

The dancer wore matching satin pants that cut at the ankle, where it revealed coordinating ribbon ties from her silver rhinestone, ankle-strap sandals by Kah Li Haslam.

Copeland, who was one of Glamour’s Women of the Year honorees in 2015, is known for her classic sense of style. Her wardrobe boasts vibrant earth tones and symmetric silhouettes.

The star performer has been the face of luxury brands like Stuart Weitzman. Copeland shot a holiday campaign with the label’s Nudist heels in 2019 that reflected her personal style of bold reds and glitter. She has also completed a global brand campaign with Theory in September and is currently promoting her new book “Black Ballerinas: My Journey to our Legacy.” The former Under Armour ambassador is the first female African American principle dancer for the American Ballet Theatre.
