Thandie Newton was on PIX11 Morning News in the US today with her co-star Tessa Thompson, to talk about their roles as troubled sisters Tangie and Nyla in the new Tyler Perry movie “For Colored Girls”.
The movie has been adapted from Ntozake Shange’s 1975 play “For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow Is Enuf”.
The movie reveals different issues that impact women in general and women of colour in particular.
Janet Jackson, Anika Noni Rose and Phylicia Rashad also star in the movie.
Thandie arrived at the CW Studios flying the British flag – as she always does – wearing a Vivienne Westwood Red Label Spring 2011 suit.
Her grey Westwood is incredibly chic. I love the sharp tailoring and the tapered pants.
Thandie looks amazing no matter what she wears.
The fresh-faced beauty added red studded Stella McCartney peep-toes and carried a brown suede Miu Miu horn-strap tote to complete her look.
“For Colored Girls” opens in theaters on November 5.

She’s so chic and pretty, just not crazy about the bag.
Thandie is not only my joint ultimate style crush (you’re the other one FC;) ) but she is such a role model to me. I’m hearing oscar buzz for this role and if she gets nominated I’ll be SUCH a happy woman,she was robbed of at least nominations for Beloved and Crash, go Thandie! x
Aww you’re too kind.
If only I had Thandie’s style
FC clearly you didn’t see your pic in US Vogue if you don’t think your in the same league!
lol…thanks Tamia xxx
it’s sickening how fab she is.
Oh la la … she’s simply amazing! I’ve liked her since she was just a nobody and played Tom Cruise’s girlfriend in MI:2. The “girlfriends” are often forgettable, but she really stood out. Ol Parker is one lucky man.
Stunning and chic–great suit and great on her. She is a lovely woman.
Post one out of three in which I express my undying love for what is being worn.
Would love to see it get nominated for BDotW.
I agree – BDOTW worthy. She looks so chic. Love the sassy length of the pants.
Love Thandie. She is so cute. Great outfit.
this is how you do chic, absolutely perfect.
Vivienne Westwood’s tailoring is second to none. Her jackets are to die for. A wonderfully sharp, chic look.
She looks good. I can even overlook the fact that I don’t really like cropped pantsuits. She is so stylish and chic.
FC can a sidewalk look be a BDOTW contender??
If so, Thandie would get my vote hands down. Even though it is not a gown, Thandie’s beauty and the elegance of the suit could easily make it hold its own.
This is one of my favourite looks ever! I love the close-up picture at the bottom, that is really what sold me, so thanks for including!
Totally x
Wonderful. I’m not usually a fan of the shorter pants length, but it works perfectly on her. In my next life, I will look this good.
Love ti and perfect for the occasion. I dont think I could love this look anymore
i am jumping up and down over this!!!!!! another fashion homerun.
