La Mode AfriWoman Forum and Dinner

Lupita Nyong’o stole the show at the 2024 Oscars with her dazzling outfit, drawing inspiration from a memorable moment in her fashion history. The 41-year-old actress, accompanied by her “A Quiet Place: Day One” co-star Joseph Quinn, looked stunning in De Beers jewels and a custom-made periwinkle Armani Privé gown.

The gown featured exquisite details, including feathers, jewels, and a plunging neckline, adding to Nyong’o’s already radiant presence. However, what truly made her outfit special was its significance.

According to E! correspondent Zanna Roberts Rassi, Nyong’o’s icy ensemble was a tribute to the fairytale light blue Prada gown she wore to the 2014 Oscars. It was during this event that she won the award for Best Supporting Actress for her role in “12 Years a Slave.”

Nyong’o’s stylist, Micaela, took to Instagram to reflect on the original gown worn a decade ago. She expressed gratitude to Nyong’o for allowing her to dress her, acknowledging that the dress, the woman, and the moment had completely changed the course of her career.

In addition to her stunning gown, Nyong’o’s present-day glam included a hairstyle that showcased “a lot of shine and texture,” according to her hairstylist Vernon François. François aimed to enhance Nyong’o’s natural coils and ensure that her look remained flawless throughout the night, using his trusted Matrix products.
