Celebrities showed up virtually and shined in stunning looks for the 52nd annual NAACP Image Awards.

Every year, the event is held to honor outstanding performances in film, television, music and literature specifically by people of color.

This year's winners included notables such as Issa Rae for outstanding actress in a comedy series as well the late Chadwick Boseman for outstanding supporting actor in a motion picture.

Actress Tracee Ellis Ross showed off a stylish look from Schiaparelli's Ready-to-Wear Fall/Winter 2021 collection designed by the brand's creative director Daniel Roseberry.

Ross' look included a fitted jacket and voluminous trousers in double twill wool, paired with white leather platform boots with golden toes and a golden dove hat. She also wore Ana Khouri jewelry.

While this year's event looked quite different from past occasions, several celebrities still brought out their best fashion ensembles.
