Jennifer Hudson showed up for her guest appearance on ‘The Late Show With Stephen Colbert’ in New York City on Monday wearing a black velvet mini dress. She is currently busy promoting her upcoming Netflix series ‘Sandy Wexler’.

The 35-year-old singer and actress paired the dress with a matching velvet robe from Brandon Maxwell’s Fall 2016 Collection. It was not the right outfit for a beautiful spring day, and the dress also looked too short and heavy on Jennifer. However, we do love her silver embellished Gucci sandals, her hair and make-up.

How do you feel about her skimpy black velvet ensemble? Do you think Jennifer should hire a professional stylist at Stitch Fix?
