Guests at the soiree included Karruche Tran, Wiz Khalifa, Emile Hirsch, Flavor Flav, Anderson .Paak, Soffi Tucker and more.
Dobrev’s look was comprised of a Gucci lame GG jacquard minidress in a sort of preppy and oversized style featuring a mock neckline and shiny silver crystalized monogrammed print. The “Love Hard” actress’ dress also had short sleeves and stopped just above the knees.

On the accessories front, Dobrev donned all-gold jewelry including high-shine bracelets. Rounding out her look the thespian also opted to keep her lengthy dark brown tresses down worn in voluminous loose curls.
As for her footwear, Dobrev sported a pair of Gucci’s horsebit platform pumps crafted of shiny black leather uppers. The shoes were comprised of 3 to 4-inch block heels, square toes and thick platform soles that offered the thespian a relatively big boost. Atop each toe sat gold hardware that mimicked the shine of her dress.
Platform heels like Dobrev’s have become a staple in many celebrities’ wardrobes for their height-boosting abilities.
When it comes to footwear, Dobrev’s shoe style often skews modern and slick. Aside from her beloved pointed-toe pumps, the “Flatliners” actress can be seen in strappy sandals by brands such as Charlotte Olympia, Stuart Weitzman and Marchesa. When off-duty, she dresses down a bit in ankle and knee-high boots by Dr. Martens, Dolce Vita and Tommy Hilfiger. Dobrev’s casual looks often include white sneakers by Converse and Vans, as well as athletic pairs by Reebok, New Balance and Under Armour.
