Sonequa Martin-Green and Danai Gurira may be on the same team in their hit horror-drama TV series “The Walking Dead,” but they were decidedly in different fashion camps at the 2018 NAACP Image Awards. Sonequa, who plays Sasha, went way overboard with her shoe pick, while Danai — aka Michonne — went too simple with hers.
Sonequa Martin-Green’s Bold Take on Red Carpet Glamour

Sonequa Martin-Green hit the red carpet in a Christian Dior Resort 2018 horse-print dress with a rodeo-inspired solid vibe. She glammed up the burlap-sack-like dress with a formal Roger Vivier black satin clutch and Neil Lane diamonds dripping from her ears, neck, and wrists.
Her play of contrasts would’ve been perfect, but her addition of the Paula Cademartori “Iris” black satin pumps with huge fan crystal embellishments threw the balance off.

Sonequa Martin-Green’s choice of Paula Cademartori’s “Iris” black satin pumps at the 2018 NAACP Image Awards reflects the designer’s appeal among fashion-forward celebrities.
January Jones, for instance, stepped out in Paula Cademartori pearl-and-glitter sandals at a FOX All-Star Party, showcasing the brand’s unique and eye-catching designs.
Similarly, AnnaSophia Robb showcased the “Tatiana” shoulder bag at a fashion gathering, highlighting the versatility of Cademartori’s designs. Alice Eve also carried a Paula Cademartori ‘Anna’ clutch, accentuating her sophisticated style.
While Sonequa’s bold heels added drama, Danai opted for understated elegance with her minimalistic sandals.
Danai Gurira’s Minimalist Approach with Elegant Details

Danai Gurira was resplendent in a white Rodarte Spring 2018 off-shoulder dress with ruffles at the neckline and the asymmetrical hem.
She matched her dress’s punky pearl-and-gold barbel piercings with a mismatched safety pin and diamond stud earrings on her lobes.
The Zimbabwean-American actress and playwright completed her look with minimalistic Jimmy Choo “Hesper” sandals, which may have been too boring a shoe choice considering the elaborate details on the rest of her outfit.
