Niecy Nash attended the 54th NAACP Image Awards tonight in Pasadena, Calif., with her wife Jessica Betts. Nash won the award for Outstanding Actress in a Television Movie, Limited-Series or Dramatic Special for her role in Netflix’s “Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story.”
Nash was clad in a blue floor-length gown comprised of a fitted flared skirt and a billowing bodice. The top half of the garment was slightly gauzy and see-through, consisting of bell sleeves that gave way to a sweetheart neckline. The fabric of Nash’s skirt was opaque and much thicker in contrast to the top.

The “Reno 911” actress accessorized with silver rings, a sizable blue gemstone on one and a diamond on the other. Although they were hidden, Nash wore heels to elevate her outfit.
Betts donned a floral embossed suit for the occasion. The singer sported a dapper silky button-down and finished off her ensemble with shiny black dress shoes.

Nash’s style expands beyond her talents on screen, the television host is known for stepping out in bold styles. Whether she’s onstage or attending a red carpet event, the “Reno 911” alum will always make a statement. Nash tends to gravitate towards sparkling silhouettes, thigh-high slit dresses and glamorous gowns with eye-catching elements. For footwear, she will likely step out in pointed-toe pumps, height-defying platform heels or strappy sandals.
