Lizzo looked like a vision at the second annual Femme It Forward Give Her FlowHERS Gala Friday in Beverly Hills.
The Truth Hurts singer, 35, wore a long black dress with a strapless leather bustier top that came to two points at the outer edge of her bust.
She paired the glamorous look with a black jacket that she wore slightly off her shoulders.
The 2 Be Loved singer – who channeled Elvira for Halloween – wore layered Chanel necklaces and kept her long, raven hair pulled slightly away from her face and down her back.
Lizzo’s makeup focused on her smokey eyes and bronzed cheeks, while she kept her lips a neutral color.

The female-focused entertainment company honored several trailblazing women this year.
Grammy nominee SZA received the Big Femme Energy Award, honoring “a woman making a huge impact in music for this generation,” according to a press release for the event.
Teyana Taylor was honored with the Visionary Award, which is presented to “a multi-dimensional creative who is changing the game for the future of women in music,” according to Billboard.
Brandy was honored with the Muse Award, while Flo Milli received the Bloom Award as this year’s breakthrough artist.
“After experiencing the powerful joy, inspiration and genuine love of our inaugural event, we are thrilled to bring together more trailblazing women and honor their impact at the second annual Give Her FlowHERS Awards Gala,” Heather Lowery, CEO and Founder of Femme It Forward, according to a press statement.
“This awards gala goes beyond giving flowers to the extraordinary women who have influenced culture, as we seek to plant more seeds of change for the future.”
Meanwhile, Lizzo is still fighting the lawsuit filed against her by some of her former backup dancers.
Her lawyers recently argued that the lawsuit interferes with her First Amendment right to free speech.
However, this is what Neama Rahmani of West Coast Employment Lawyers tells us Billboard in a statement: “Even a first-year law student can see that ‘free speech’ does not include the illegal sexual harassment and discrimination based on race, religion and disability of Lizzo and her team.”

She added: ‘Filming a reality TV show does not give Lizzo the right to break the law.’
“The defense prosecutors are either defendants accused of wrongdoing or people on Lizzo’s payroll, and their statements cannot be considered by the judge,” she said.
Rahmani concluded by saying that West Coast Employment Lawyers had also been contacted by several individuals who were allegedly assaulted by the singer.
“Our clients have dozens of independent witnesses supporting their stories, and we continue to receive inquiries from other former Lizzo employees who want to be new plaintiffs,” she said.
