So the world premiere of the highly anticipated Black Panther movie was held last night (January 29th) in Los Angeles and we just can’t keep calm because the red carpet was all sorts of…(inserts fire emoji)! Talk about a suave and elegant display of African culture and fashion.

Among those in attendance were the cast and crew of the movie as well as invited celebrities. Whilst we impatiently wait for the movie to hit the theatres next month, let’s feast our eyes on what our favourite celebrities wore to the star-studded premiere.
