Cynthia Erivo Wore Alexander McQueen To The Saks Hampton Dinner

On Wednesday (July 14) Cynthia Erivo attended the Saks Hampton Dinner held at the Parrish Art Museum in New York.

While I wouldn’t regard this as dressing down, I was excited to see something new and less “dressy” from the British actress who had a stellar awards season.

Particularly this Alexander McQueen hybrid denim jacket – which I have had my eye on since it dropped online – that she paired with the same hybrid denim skirt we saw in the look book.

I have a feeling the accessories will throw some off this look.

Personally, I’m well used to the stiletto nails, nose ring and stacks of jewels, so my attention turned to her Saint Laurent belt and Bottega Veneta platform leather mules.

I wouldn’t have added the belt as the jacket looks nipped in thanks to the placement of the pockets, but my feeling is Cynthia wanted this to look more fitted, less boxy, and less casual, which was always a hard task considering the denim, army-green shell fabric.

The mules?  Some might feel they are too bright for this look, but I love the injection of summer into this Pre-Fall 2021 outfit.

Thoughts on Cynthia’s styling?
