When it comes to dressing up for your next big event, get inspired by the leading ladies gracing the red carpet and silver screen. Sparkle like Jessica Chastain and Michelle Yeoh in shimmering silhouettes or take a cue from Viola Davis and Angela Bassett and make a colorful splash. If you want to give your gown an edgy update, channel Cate Blanchett. For all the risk-takers out there, Zendaya always makes for a magnificent muse.
