Black women in blue remind us of the power of electricity. The jolting hue sends shock waves through our systems every time we see one of our melanated sistas rocking the primary color. Representing stability, inspiration, harmony, and calmness, blue exudes a grounding energy that radiates like a twinkling star in the sky.
Blue has a broad spectrum, ranging from soft, dainty pastels to the deepest depths of midnight blue. No matter the shade, Black women are a complete vision when they drape their skin in the serene color.
Tracee Ellis Ross hasn’t met a color she didn’t look good wearing. She is an award-winning fashionista who isn’t afraid to lean into looks that feel unconventional to others. She understands the art of style, which is evident in the myriad colors, textures, and shapes she wears.
In one of her less extravagant looks, Ross posed in a royal blue YSL jumpsuit with blue YSL pumps.

We’ve watched the evolution of Cardi B’s style since her days on “Love & Hip Hop.” The Bronx native has a fashion range that makes her a red-carpet fixture at any major event. Her work with Kollin Carter exemplifies the art of creating looks that tell a story—something the dynamic duo is known for doing.
Back in 2023, Cardi walked in the Balenciaga Fall 2024 fashion show in a vibrant electric blue fur coat draped around her petite frame. The vampy makeup clad with the simple yet bold look, lives in our heads rent free.
If we’re being honest, Black women look good in whatever color they decide to wear. We’ve explored other hues, and this time around, we’re doing a deep dive into the color blue. Here are 37 additional pictures of Black women who bring life to the celestial shade.
