As many of the world’s greatest actresses and actors hit the carpet last night for TV’s biggest award show, we couldn’t help but fall in love with Viola Davis’ entire look. The newest L’Oréal Paris spokeswoman gracefully strutted the carpet in a gorgeous asymmetrical white and black gown by Alberta Ferretti, a show-stopping red lip and a stunning smoky eye. Davis was there both as a nominee for outstanding lead actress in a drama series for her role on the hit show How to Get Away With Murder and as a presenter. Of course, being the makeup lovers we are, we had to figure out exactly how to get the beauty look that took our breath away, courtesy of celebrity makeup artist Autumn Moultrie.
