The Real Housewives of Potomac cast’s season 8 reunion looks have been revealed, and they are looking their absolute best this time around.
Unlike other Housewives franchises, the Potomac ladies all wear the same color at the reunion. In season 7, they rocked shades of blue, and in season 6, they coordinated in pretty pink outfits.
The ladies faced criticism for their outfits in both seasons, with some fans calling them the “worst-dressed cast.”
RHOP's leading women seem to have taken the feedback to heart, as they showed off their style at the season 8 taping. Gizelle Bryant, Ashley Darby, Candiace Dillard Bassett, Robyn Dixon, Karen Huger, Dr. Wendy Osefo, Mia Thornton, and newcomer Nneka Ihim all brought their fashion A-game in chic all-black ensembles.

Bravo unveiled photos of their latest looks on Tuesday, March 19, much to the delight of fans.
Bryant, who is 53 years old, exuded timeless elegance in a stunning one-shoulder outfit. The design included a chic thigh-high slit and delicate gold accents. Completing the look with square-toe sandal heels and glamorous gold accessories, she styled her blonde hair in a sleek blowout.
Bryant shared with Bravo that the inspiration for the look is a mob wife aesthetic. Embracing her inner Jersey girl, she wanted to embody the style characterized by faux or real furs, animal prints, oversized sunglasses, costume jewelry, bold makeup, and voluminous hair. Think of iconic mob wives like Talia Shire in The Godfather, Michelle Pfeiffer in Scarface, and Edie Falco in The Sopranos.
In contrast, Darby, 35, looked stunning in a plunging gown with a flowing train. She revealed to the network that the gown was meticulously hand-crafted, taking over 300 hours to create. Adorned with more than 1,000 black diamond Swarovski crystals, she was glowing with pride as she described the intricate details of her outfit.
Dillard Bassett, 37, looked stunning in a fitted corset gown with lace details. Dixon, 44, opted for a more edgy look with pantaboots, while Huger, 60, turned heads in a elegant dress that highlighted her waist and flowed into a draped skirt. She also debuted a stylish pixie cut, perfect for the current trend of short hair being popular this year.

Osefo, who is 39 years old, wore a stunning velvet gown with white paneling that made her look like royalty. She completed her look with a beautiful jeweled choker that adorned her neck. When speaking to Bravo, she described her outfit as a combination of an art gallery and an art museum.
At 39, Thornton flaunted her skin in a stylish cutout gown crafted from pleated fabric. Meanwhile, Ihim, aged 36, sparkled in an asymmetrical outfit that revealed her cleavage.
Fans couldn't help but shower them with compliments. One fan wrote, "They look amazing," while another commented, "Oh they all look sickening ... even Gizelle and she can't even dress."
A third social media user shared, “Wow! Everyone looks good. Alright honey! Yes, please!” A fourth observer added, “This is the best [they] have ever looked during a reunion.”
