Teyana Taylor made a bold fashion statement while hosting the 2025 CFDA Fashion Awards in New York City, arriving in a jaw-dropping head-to-toe Thom Browne ensemble.

The 34-year-old actress and singer told PEOPLE exclusively that she collaborated with the designer to craft her striking look. “We came together to put this lovely look together, so I’m very, very excited,” Taylor said on the red carpet at the American Museum of Natural History, the venue for this year’s event.

Head-to-Toe Thom Browne

For the ceremony, Taylor wore a white structured jacket with oversized sleeves, a cinched waist, and a high collar, leaving only a few buttons undone. She paired it with a form-fitting black skirt that skimmed the ground, adorned with silver, chain-like embellishments cascading from the hip past her knees to echo the detailing on her jacket. Her look was completed with an asymmetric black hat featuring feathery details.

The CFDA Awards bring together leading American and international designers, brands, and fashion industry figures, celebrating excellence in style and design. This year, Taylor hosted alongside a star-studded lineup including Addison Rae, Anna Wintour, Julianne Moore, Leslie Bibb, Naomi Campbell, and Thom Browne.
