What Jennifer Hudson Wore for Her Big Wedding Surprise
Fashion October 03, 2023
Jennifer Hudson surprised a bride and groom and their guests when she crashed their wedding reception with a jaw-dropping performance — complete with a jaw-dropping look.
For her surprise performance, which included a cover of Whitney Houston’s “I Wanna Dance with Somebody,” Chaka Khan's "I'm Every Woman," and JHud's own "Giving Myself," the host donned a stunning off-the-shoulder column gown by Marchesa featuring molded 3D satin flower appliqués, a draped bodice, and draped skirt with a slit.
We're told that Jennifer, styled here by Maeve Reilly, loved the striking fuchsia color of this gown mixed with the delicate details of the silk flowers. Her favorite body part to show off is her décolletage, so this off-the-shoulder look was perfection.
JHud wore her hair in locs pulled to the side in a dramatic ’do. She accessorized with pink drop earrings with oversized diamonds and a blinged-out manicure.
For the dress rehearsal, Jennifer went cool and casual in a loose-fitting white mesh crop top, cream wide-legged pants, and gold gladiator sandals.
