Jennifer Lopez, Oprah Winfrey & More Stars Who Rocked the Elle Women in Hollywood Red Carpet

Every year, Elle Magazine celebrates eight women who are taking over Hollywood and making a difference in the industry in their annual Women in Hollywood celebration. Among this year’s nominees were Hollywood powerhouses and rising stars Jennifer Lopez, Fantasia Barrino, Lily Gladstone, Eva Longoria, Taraji P. Henson, Jodie Foster, America Ferrera and Danielle Brooks.

“People were laying the groundwork for this for a long time,” Lopez told the outlet of the change she’s felt in the industry. “It’s just that sometimes it takes time to move these mountains and these old ideas and paradigms and shift them to a place where there’s real change. We have been able to stand in our own power and say, ‘We’re not going to be taken advantage of. We’re not just on the corners of life or on the outside of the stories. We are the stories.'”

To celebrate all the stars’ past and future accomplishments, the night’s big honorees were joined by many other A-listers on Dec. 5 for a star-studded event. Check out all the best looks of the red carpet below!
