Niecy Nash-Betts opted for a wardrobe rewear for the Human Rights Campaign’s 2026 Los Angeles Dinner on Saturday night.
The Emmy Award-winning actress, director and producer favored a formfitting black dress courtesy of Chiara Boni La Petite Robe. The floor-length, sleeveless dress featured a plunging neckline and two cutouts at the bust.

The dress created an hourglass silhouette, thanks to the cinched waist that transitioned to a formfitting skirt that grazed the arrival carpet. Nash-Betts embellished the dress with touches of sparkle thanks to her jewelry, including delicate pieces like a bracelet and icy crystal statement earrings. She completed the look with platform Christian Louboutin metallic silver heels.
As for glam, the actress elevated her look with a flowing high ponytail with a black bow. Curls cascaded down the actress’ back and past her shoulder. Makeup included such highlights as bold brows, smoky eyes and a glossy lip to boot.

Nash-Betts previously wore this dress to the 2022 Variety Women in Power event. At the time, the actress’ look favored more subdued glam, with straight hair with a middle part and pared back beauty elements.
The wardrobe rewear of Nash-Betts’ formfitting black dress surely serves as an example of a classic closet staple’s lasting power. Much like the impetus of the little black dress, Nash-Betts’ dress for Saturday night’s Human Rights Campaign’s 2026 Los Angeles Dinner serves as a versatile piece with lasting appeal, regardless of contemporary trends.
