La La Anthony Fires Off on the ‘Gram in This Super Sexy Red Ensemble

“Power” actress La La Anthony is taking “lady in red” to a whole other level.

It’s no secret that Anthony has made a name for herself in the fashion world, but as of lately her voguish looks are a hit with fans.

The 39-year-old mother took to Instagram on Tuesday with a portrait of herself dripped in all red attire. She sported a strapless, red cheetah-print bodysuit with red high waist pants. She wore her ombre brown tresses in a half-up, half-down hairstyle and went for a full-coverage makeup look, including a dramatic cat-eye and nude brown lipstick.

Anthony apparently snapped the portrait with photographer Robert Ector and Tomás Herold, seemingly in New York City. Both photographers who tagged in her post along with visual architect Kesha McLeod. The celeb captioned her image, “Flamin’ 🔥🐆.”

Fans were boggled by Anthony’s sultry fashion look.

“😍 Too hot to touch to much to handle.. looking fly 🔥🖤. You are killin it in these pics!”

“Lala they sleeping on you! You style is crazy, go head girrrll 💞🖤!”

“😍😮speechless! absolutely stunning! OMG goddess! remarkably gorgeous and the real deal! 🎆.”

When it comes to the fashion industry, the former MTV “Total Request Live” host is no stranger. In December 2018, she teamed up with plus-size retailer Ashley Stewart to design a clothing collection ranging from size 12 through 32. The garments include jeans, dresses and jumpsuits costing between $78 and $128.

She explained to Page Six that she was inspired by her own closet to design a line for plus -size women.

“[My inspiration was] the same thing I imagine for myself: wanting to feel sexy, wanting to feel confident,” she said. “Just getting up-to-date styles that make women feel really good.”

Anthony described her style as tomboy fashion mixed with a little edge. She told the news source she wanted the line to capture her own personal sense of style.

“These clothes can take you from day to play to slay; I love that because you want to have an outfit that can do that and all you have to do is take a jacket off or add a jacket,” she added.

The line is currently available on Ashley Stewart’s website to shop.

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
