Celebrities at the Gold House Hosts 2024 Gold Gala

Gold House, the leading cultural ecosystem powering Asian Pacific creatives, companies, and communities, hosted its third annual Gold Gala entitled, A Gold New World, held at The Music Center on Saturday in California.

Thai Nguyen is an incredible designer, and the custom ensemble he created for Kelly Marie Tran’s ‘Raya and the Last Dragon’ premiere remains his most iconic look.

Karrueche Tran’s custom áo dài and a head piece might not have the extensive embroidery, but this shade of red and the cultural significance of this look as Karrueche was celebrating her Vietnamese heritage, equally blew me away.

The Maneki-Neko Judith Leiber Lucky Cat bag was a fun way to style this impressive look.

Michelle Yeoh does look very sophisticated in this Schiaparelli tweed suit, but it’s giving ‘ladies who lunch’ rather than gala.

Needless to say that I’m not a fan of the shoes or the Richard Mille watch here.

Avan Jogia celebrated his Indian heritage wearing a sherwani by Sabyasachi, while his girlfriend Halsey wore a lehenga by the same designer.

I really love the craftsmanship of both looks, but Halsey’s new pink hair colour is throwing the balance off for me. 

I was as excited about Avantika’s Geyanna Youness butterfly sculptural gown, as I was seeing her blue pumps peeking out from the hemline.

My biggest bug-bear is a stunning gown let down by a boring pair of heels, but that wasn’t the case here.

Bella Poarch was pretty in pink wearing an uber girlie custom Vania Romoff set, even though my first thought was that there is something off with the fit and the length of the skirt.

A Marina Raphael bag and Flor De Maria sandals completed her look.

Jeannie Mai brought the drama wearing a strapless couture gown with off-the-shoulder detail from Antonio Grimaldi. 

Jeannie is wearing a ring by Mahrukh Akuly.

While we’re used to bold designers and plenty of detail from Lucy Liu, I did find the change of pace and silhouette really refreshing from the actress in this Bibhu Mohapatra Fall 2024 column dress.

Maitreyi Ramakrishnan always bring her youthful and colourful style to every red carpet, as showcased in this lehenga by Anita Dongre.

Padma Lakshmi looked beautiful wearing a fresh lime Cinq Ă  Sept Spring 2024 two-piece look styled with Cartier jewels.

I prefer her look over the runway.

Regina King rocked a hot pink belted double breasted long trench coat with feather appliquĂ©s by Roberto Cavalli as she presented her long-time friend Lucy Liu with the Gold Legend honor.  

The Oscar-winner styled her look with Cartier jewels.
