The 34-year-old actress — most famous for her role in the HBO comedy series Insecure — arrived at the ceremony in a multicolored Peter Pilotto dress, and added diamond earrings and rings to complete the look that included dazzling colors like purple, green, yellow and red.

Rae most recently appeared in the films Little and The Hate U Give. She is also known for creating and starring in the YouTube comedy web series Awkward Black Girl.
