We’ve always admired Gwen Stefani’s innate sense of style, but since she decided to channel her energy into being a full time mum with her two boys, we rarely get the opportunity to see her flashes of brilliance. For when Gwen gets it right, she gets it very right indeed.

Appearing at the annual MOCA Gala in Los Angeles at the weekend, she looked every inch the style icon. And wearing a voluminous black Carven dress, complete with asymmetric neckline, we remembered why we love Gwen’s style so much.  

While many stars would have shied away from such a daring number, she totally rocks the look. She chose to clash the dress with a pair of cobalt blue platform heels and kept all other accessories to a minimum, opting for a neat boxy clutch bag and diamond bracelet.

To finish, her platinum hair was piled high into a top knot and, of course, her trademark red lippie made an appearance.

Gwen, we miss your fashion daringness – more like this, please!
