Awkwafina Wore Lanvin To The ‘Shang-Chi And The Legend Of The Ten Rings’ LA Premiere

Awkwafina Wore Lanvin To The 'Shang-Chi And The Legend Of The Ten Rings' LA Premiere

Awkwafina attended the Disney’s premiere of ‘Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings’ held at El Capitan Theatre on Monday (August 16) in Los Angeles, California.

The actress, who plays a girl named Katy – a close friend of Simu Liu the lead character in the film – paid a beautiful homage to her Chinese and Korean heritage wearing this suit from Lanvin’s Resort 2022 collection.

This is shown not only in the obi style belt on her trousers, but also for the red patent leather shawl collar and crop top.

Red is a popular colour in Chinese culture, symbolizing luck, joy, and happiness.

It also represents celebration, of which this event is for being the first-ever Asian superhero film.

Awkwafina was never going to give us a big ball gown for this event.   It’s just not her natural style. 

Even during awards season those gala gowns feel a little forced on her, which is why one of her best looks during that period was the tuxedo inspired Christian Dior Haute Couture look from the 2020 Golden Globe Awards.

We love our stars to look comfortable on the red carpet. And Awkwafina is very much in her element here.

I only wish the trousers were half an inch, or an inch shorter.
