The Keep Memory Alive Foundation’s “Power of Love Gala” celebrating Muhammad Ali’s 70th birthday went down this weekend, and Kelly Rowland was on hand to honor the boxer with a performance of several songs, including Whitney Houston’s “The Greatest Love Of All.”

It was a big fashion night for Kelly, as the songstress had not one, not two, but three wardrobe changes throughout the event.

Kelly arrived to the gala wearing a strapless floor length gown that showcased her fabulous figure. Her fuchsia silk dress had a crisscross detailing across the waist, and its bright hue was a great complement to Kelly’s glowing skin.

Short dresses, sequined blazers, floral jumpsuits, sleek hair, flowing locks, tightly pulled back buns — Angela rocked it all, and then some. Though she was constantly on the fashion switch up, she definitely deserves props for maintaining such a consistently stylish look.

Black and Gold

One immediately spotted trend of the night was basic black getting kicked up a notch with bold, metallic gold accents. Gwyneth Paltrow, Rihanna, and Alicia Keys were all at the forefront of this look, with Rihanna and Alicia even wearing the same pair of Christian Louboutin heels.

BFF of Beyoncé and Jay-Z, Gwyneth took to the Grammy stage wearing a black gown from Stella McCartney. The dress was accessorized with a wide gold belt.

Rihanna had all heads turning on the red carpet in a custom Giorgio Armani dress that she collaborated on with Armani himself, saying the designer was beginning to trust her design skills. She also said the inspiration for her look came from Michelle Pfeiffer’s character in the movie Scarface. She matched her new gold hair, with a gold clutch, and gold wrist cuff.

Alicia Keys also wore black and gold, accessorizing her black Alexandre Vauthier knee length dress with an oversized gold statement necklace. A stylish pompadour hairstyle and Christian Louboutin ‘Bis Un Bout’ clear PVC ankle-strap pumps completed her look.
