Lupita Nyong’o In Atelier Versace – ‘Black Panther’ World Premiere

If you’re anything like me, you’ve been waiting for the premiere of ‘Black Panther’ ever since Lupita Nyong’o was cast in the film.

The actress didn’t disappoint when she stepped onto the red carpet on Monday night (January 29) with her co-stars Nabiyah Be, Letitia Wright, Angela Bassett and Danai Gurira, wearing Atelier Versace.

Purple is regarded as a regal colour, which was very apt as this custom-made Atelier Versace gown was fit for a queen.

I love the contrast of the flowy chiffon with the gold metal hardware harness detail combining beauty and strength. It’s a look that I can’t see many others pulling off.

Some might not like the hair, but rather than tribal jewelry – which most went for – she opted to incorporate her African heritage via her hairstyle.

Giuseppe Zanotti gold metallic ‘Betty’ platform shoes and Beladora jewelry rounded out her look.
