Our expectations are always high when Laverne Cox is gracing the red carpet with her beauty, and as usual, her presence at the 2016 Billboard Music Awards left no room for disappointment.

The 31-year-old actress and LGBT advocate took the stage Sunday night with Lindsey Vonn to present Rihanna for her evening performance. She was an absolute vision in an elegant black Michael Costello gown.

The gown hugged Laverne’s curves in a fishtail silhouette with an A-line waist before spilling out in a flair and train at her feet. The X design drew attention to Laverne’s enviable figure and ensured all eyes were on her as she took the stage.

Laverne was glamorous and glittery on the pink carpet, accessorizing with a classy Nathalie Trad clutch and sparkling golden jewelry by Lorraine Schwartz and Ofira Jewels. She styled her sleek blonde locks straight and added smoky eye makeup to accentuate her gown’s bold and dark design.

Laverne exceeded our expectations with this unforgettable display. Unfortunately, this exact Michael Costello gown isn’t available for purchase.
