Gabrielle Union brought a dazzling dose of glamour to Paris Fashion Week on January 27, 2025, as she made a striking appearance at Schiaparelli’s haute couture spring/summer 2025 runway show. The 52-year-old actress has long been known for her impeccable fashion sense and this outing was no exception.
Union turned heads on the stone steps of the venue, showcasing a chic black gown that featured sheer panels and an elegant off-the-shoulder neckline. The form-fitting silhouette perfectly accentuated her figure, serving a mix of sophistication and modern flair. On occasion, she draped a long black blazer-style jacket over her shoulders, adding an understated yet stylish layer to her look.
Keeping her accessories to a minimum, Union opted for a pair of classic black pumps and subtle jewelry, allowing her outfit to take center stage. Yet, it was her glam that truly elevated the entire ensemble to high-fashion heights.

This haircut was not just bold; it effortlessly embodied the essence of contemporary chic. The actress’ makeup was equally captivating, thanks to her talented makeup artist, Ngozi Edeme.
A close-up shared on social media revealed sparkling bronze eyeshadow, flushed peach cheeks, and a neutral lip that together created a vibrant yet balanced look.

Union herself echoed the sentiment in her Instagram Stories, playfully stating, “Yall got me TOGETHER!” showcasing her excitement and appreciation for the glam team behind her look.
In addition to her stunning appearance, Union’s comments about her youthful look sparked interest, especially regarding rumors of plastic surgery. The “Bring It On” star has often been the subject of discussions about aging gracefully and has confidently addressed such speculations. “A high pony for a lady of a certain age is like a facelift,” she remarked in a recent conversation with PEOPLE.

A high snatched pony is all you need — [and it] don’t cost you a thing,” she added.
