Let me know if you’d like a more formal, playful, or editorial tone!
The Black Excellence Brunch, hosted by Trell Thomas in Los Angeles, centered around the theme “To Be Celebrated.” While celebrities often receive praise for their accomplishments, the event shifted the spotlight to the people who’ve supported them along the way. Thomas created a space where stars could honor those who’ve helped shape their journeys.
Actress and TV host Niecey Nash showed up in a custom nude off-the-shoulder dress and took a moment to recognize her wife, Jessica Betts, who wore a look by Richfresh. Nash shared how much Betts has inspired and uplifted her since they met.
Kyla Pratt also attended, dressed in a burnt orange wrap dress by Steve Madden, to celebrate her mother, who’s been her biggest cheerleader throughout her career in Hollywood.
Claire Sulmers, CEO of Fashion Bomb, flew in from Paris Fashion Week just for the occasion. She arrived in a nude sequined dress from ZCRAVE, paired with a snakeskin leather trench coat and matching thigh-high boots.
During the event, Sulmers interviewed several guests, including bestselling author Tabitha Brown, who wore an all-white ensemble featuring a rhinestone-detailed Je T’aime shirt and blazer, along with chic sunglasses. She also spoke with Niecey Nash, TV personality Kendall Kyndall, celebrity hairstylist Bernon Francois, and Joey Harris.
The brunch was a heartfelt celebration of love, support, and the people who make success possible behind the scenes.
