RHOA Premiere: Get Into The Celebrity Looks We Loved

The Real Housewives of Atlanta (RHOA) is back, and the cast stepped out and shut it down for their big premiere night. With the show’s return airing tonight (March 9), the ladies arrived at the Tesserae at Thompson Buckhead for a swanky soirée full of glitz, glam, and just the right amount of drama. Spoiler alert: Every star looked TF good. The TV One fam was in the building, catching the slays, chatting with the housewives, and, of course, sipping on all the piping-hot tea. Because let’s be honest—where the RHOA cast goes, shade must follow. The ladies brought the energy, teased what’s to come this season, and served over-the-top fabulousness at every turn. All eyes were glued to the cast as they arrived. A mix of iconic OGs, newbies, and well-known Atlanta socialites, the housewives were truly the “Southern Belles” of the ball.

RHOA Premiere: Phaedra Parks In Black Leather Was Everything

Meanwhile, Phaedra Parks reminded everyone exactly why she stays booked and unbothered. She turned heads in a black leather mini dress from The Ivy Showroom that hugged her every curve. With ruched details, a deep V-neckline, and a sleek matte finish, Phaedra looked sophisticated yet spicy. And because Phaedra is always camera-ready, the star completed her look with a platinum blonde asymmetrical wig, dramatic lashes, and a nude-brown lip combo that was pure perfection. No notes, Phae! The housewives weren’t the only ones showing out—Atlanta’s elite were outside too. Spotted in the crowd were Marci Collier Overstreet, Senator Reverend Raphael Warnock (GA-D), Derek J, Monyetta Shaw, Da Brat, Jesseca “Judy” Harris-Dupart, Dwight Eubanks, and more.
