Elle's sixth annual Women in Television dinner in West Hollywood on Wednesday night was all about celebrating powerful female roles. A collection of stars gathered at the Sunset Tower Hotel for the event, including Nina Dobrev [1], who stunned in a black and white gown, and Modern Family's Sarah Hyland. Also in attendance were the magazine's January cover stars [2], How to Get Away With Murder's Viola Davis, Quantico's Priyanka Chopra, and HBO's Vinyl star Olivia Wilde [3], who arrived without her fiancé, Jason Sudeikis [4]. Meanwhile, actresses Sarah Rafferty and Abigail Spencer shared a sweet hug outside, and Tracee Ellis Ross struck poses on the red carpet following her recent #OscarsSoWhite joke [5]. Read on to see more highlights from the star-studded night.
