Starring opposite Keith Powers, who’s 20 years her junior, Gabrielle, 50, also serves as one of the movie’s producers.
Ahead of the rom-com’s release on June 23 on Netflix, Union embarked on a press tour for The Perfect Find, and her outfits are nothing short of impeccable.
1. Gabrielle Union Stuns in a Caramel-Colored Prada Mini Dress at Tribeca Premiere
For the world premiere of The Perfect Find at Tribeca Festival Wednesday, Gabrielle Union showcased her radiant skin in a caramel-colored gabardine mini dress, selected by stylist Thomas Christos from Prada.
She paraded her toned pins in the eye-catching short dress, which had a simple silhouette, an asymmetrical neck and hem, and sexy side and back cutouts. An array of embellishments featuring beads, purple stones, and geometric crystals gave the otherwise simple dress an elaborate touch.

The former judge of America’s Got Talent perfectly complemented her ensemble with exquisite Tiffany & Co. jewelry, adding an extra touch of brilliance. Elegant silver stud earrings with a unique bean-shaped design adorned her ears.
Around her neck shimmered a captivating silver claw necklace adorned with striking black jade, valued at $3,650. Completing the ensemble, she adorned her fingers with a selection of tasteful rings, adding to the overall allure of her appearance.
Her glam team, composed of hair artist Larry Sims and makeup artist Vincent Oquendo, gave her a sultry beauty look.
Her raven tresses were pulled back into a sleek, tight ponytail with long extensions, while her eyes were accentuated with multi-winged eyeliner and fake lashes by House of Lashes. She also had her eyebrows brushed up, and her lips painted metallic nude.

2. Gabrielle Union Keeps it Cool in Breezy White Separates for The View Appearance
Before attending the Tribeca premiere of her new rom-com, Gabrielle Union dropped by The View to promote her latest project.
For her guest appearance on the show, the 10 Things I Hate About You actress opted for monochromatic white separates, including a breezy white shirt and matching white drawstring cargo pants.
She appeared braless underneath and nearly suffered a wardrobe malfunction, as her long-sleeved shirt only had one button fastened.

Keeping the look summery, Gabrielle paired her airy ensemble with cream-colored thong sandals, hoop earrings, and a small Prada Galleria Saffiano Special Edition bag.
The desert beige Saffiano leather bag retails for $7,500 and features vibrant geometric prints on the front and back. It also has leather handles, side snap closures, and Prada’s enameled metal triangle logo on the front.
Gabrielle sported her new summer cut, which was parted to the side and showcased her small hoop earrings. She added gleaming rings on each finger and rounded out her look with smokey eyes, fluttery eyelashes, and nude pink lipstick.

Gabrielle caught everyone’s attention Tuesday as she left the Good Morning America studios wearing a vibrant pink outfit from Versace’s Fall/Winter 2023 collection.
The Bring It On star embraced the Barbiecore trend in her vibrant pink boucle coat dress, which perfectly highlighted her hourglass curves. The dress featured triple buttons down the center front, and the bottom part was split open to reveal a matching mini skirt in hot pink satin.

She added sparkles to the striking outfit by wearing a chunky $75,000 Tiffany HardWear Graduated Link necklace in yellow gold with pave diamonds and her expensive 8.5-carat cushion-cut diamond engagement ring.
Gabrielle wore side-parted tresses and smokey eyes and rounded out her chic spring look with the Italian label’s orange satin slingback pumps with pointed toes and thin high heels.

4. Gabrielle Union Rocks a Monochromatic Gray Michael Kors Ensemble at GMA
On her way to the GMA studios earlier, Gabrielle opted for a monochromatic gray look, starkly contrasting her bright pink outfit when she departed the building.
Putting a modern spin on business dressing, the Cheaper by the Dozen star wore a Michael Kors Fall/Winter 2023 ensemble that consisted of a cleavage-baring low-cut cashmere sweater with ribbed accents and a coordinating thigh-skimming micro skirt.

Adding warmth to her leggy appearance, Gabrielle layered a floor-length gray coat over her revealing outfit.
She then wore the same beauty look but traded her Tiffany & Co. chain necklace for a silver choker necklace with a statement agate plate pendant. The actress added a stone ring to her accessories and slipped her big feet into a pair of pointy brown pumps.
