The Real Housewives of Potomac is wrapping up season 8 this Sunday, and we’re all expecting the reunion to be full of drama and excitement. This season took the ladies all over, from Austin to the Dominican Republic. We saw Mia Thornton and Ashley Darby open up about their marriage issues, and newcomer Nneka Ihim stirred things up in Wendy Osefo’s life, so there was never a dull moment.
Everyone’s buzzing about the stunning outfits the ladies wore to the reunion, filmed in New York last month. The theme was “Art Gallery,” and they all showed up in luxurious black gowns that oozed elegance.
First off, we must talk about the original “Grand Dame” of Potomac, Karen Huger. Even though Gizelle Bryant tried to pass the title to newbie Nneka Ihim, Karen showed why she’s unbeatable. Celebrating her milestone birthday, Karen stunned in a meticulously crafted ‘Maticevski‘ gown with a high slit, stealing the spotlight.
Gizelle Bryant, often critiqued for her fashion choices, dazzled in a glamorous black Versace dress that fit her like a glove, showing her evolution in style. Dr. Wendy Osefo, as usual, did not disappoint. She looked stunning in a black Ann Usman dress paired with a cream Johnathan Kayne cape and an embellished Ela Rose statement necklace that screamed royalty.
Mia Thornton wowed everyone in a dress with sculptural detailing by Atlanta designer Nneka Alexander, showcasing phenomenal craftsmanship. Candace Dillard Bassett went for a black lace gown by Miami designer Katya Suzdaleva, looking flawless and managing to elegantly carry the dress’s length despite her petite frame.
Ashley Darby, now transformed after her split from Michael Darby, wore a custom strapless Riley Knoxx Couture gown with intricate beading, making her stand out beautifully. Nneka Ihim stayed true to her Nigerian roots, wearing a striking outfit by Xtra Brides Lagos. Despite the drama she brought this season, she nailed her reunion look with confidence.
Finally, Robyn Dixon stayed committed to her man Juan despite the rumors. She chose a unique asymmetrical dress by DifferentRegard, paired with black stiletto high-heel leggings and a chic platinum blonde bob.
Who do you think nailed it as the best-dressed Housewife at the season 8 reunion?
