Nothing is more empowering than self-confidence, and by Jove, she’s got it! Jennifer Hudson arrived at Variety’s 5th Annual Power of Women event in Beverly Hills looking every bit like an empowered woman in a sleek white peplum dress.
You can easily see how comfortable the singer is in her own skin (and dress) by the radiant smile on her face. W-E-R-Q it, girl. We’re cheering you on!

Jennifer Hudson donned a modern peplum dress by Yigal Azrouel. The dress’s sleek design featured no gathering or pleating around the waist flap.

The flap’s curved hem gives it the illusion of volume, but in reality, it stays pretty flat to create that clean, structured finish.

Jennifer teamed the dress up with black pointed-toe heels from Saint Laurent and some old rose lips.

We love a girl who knows how to have fun on the red carpet; a chunk of this ability depends on her outfit choice. This Yigal Azrouel pick combines the perfect mix of sassy and class – very apt for a semi-formal event that honors strong women.
Plus, did we mention that it’s totally wardrobe malfunction-proof? No holds are barred on that red carpet, giving her the confidence to shine.
