This past Saturday, September 25Th, was the 32nd Annual Edition of United Negro College Fund's/UNCF Evening of Stars at the Pasadena Convention Center. Stevie Wonder led an all-star tribute to the one and only, Miss Chaka Khan, where she was presented with the prestigious UNCF's Award of Excellence in recognition of her distinguished career and support of the UNCF. The GORGEOUS actress Nicole Ari Parker, best known for Showtime's drama series "Soul Food", was a presenter and she wore one of our NIKOLAKI Gowns!!!

Her Stylist Chaz E. Foley brought several of our gowns from our Atelier to her, and I'm so excited she chose one of them for this fabulous Red Carpet Gala--which also will be televised on January 2011.

In case "inquiring minds" want to know: The gown is a black silk Duchesse strapless fitted gown featuring an "Obi"-like waist and back gold lurex-linen detail. I think she looked AMAZING! Love the stylish pixie haircut as well!
