Gabrielle Union Rocks Asymmetrical Plaid & Pinstripe Suit with a Very ’70s Touch

At this point, Gabrielle Union's Instagram account looks like a fashion magazine spread.

The Bring It On actress wears runway-ready outfits almost every day, and we can never get enough. Just a few days ago, Union walked the streets of London in a monochromatic red ensemble that included a giant feathery red coat. And earlier this month, the actress attended the Gucci Love Parade in Hollywood with her family, where she donned a peach-colored Gucci gown with a thigh-high slit.

And now, Union is giving us another stellar fashion moment. The 49-year-old actress wasn't going to leave the U.K. without rocking a few more iconic looks, including one that she shared to her Instagram account, saying, “Suit Game Undefeated [check mark emoji]. @christopherjohnrogers.”

In the series of photos, Union is seen wearing a suit from the Christopher John Rogers Collection 008. The “half'n'half” Italian black and navy wool suit includes plaid and pinstripe designs on the left and right. Union's frequent collaborator, Thomas Christos Kikis, styled the outfit and he paired it with bright golden heels.

However, the highlight of the ensemble was the ’70s-inspired blouse that was layered underneath the jacket. The gradient dot twill blouse looks like it was pulled straight from an episode of Happy Days and the rainbow colors perfectly accentuated the thin, colorful lines of Union's suit.

To round out the look, Union turned to makeup artist Esther Edeme and hairstylist Larry Sims, while the photos were snapped by Moeez Ali.

The official Christopher John Rogers account commented on Union's post, calling her an “I C O N.” Meanwhile, Union's stepdaughter, Zaya Wade, said, “Oh okkkkkkk.”

Union never stops wowing us.
