Here’s why: because it’s a risk. Some people might hate it – a rose gold bodysuit underneath a layer of tulle – but are you seriously expecting Yara Shahidi, one of the most exciting style stars of the moment, to show up in something safe and boring and pretty, something you would wear?
What, actually, would be the point? Like what would that do for her? What would it do for us? I don’t want to see Yara Shahidi in something Amy Adams would wear, sorry. I want to see her kill it in a sequined catsuit, with a F-CKING PETER PAN COLLAR, and loose sleeves down to the elbow, in an outfit unlike any other outfit on the carpet, in a look that is distinctly her…
In a season defined by the princess gown…
This is both princess (pink, sparkles) and not princess. Or, rather, modern princess. A modern princess who doesn’t need traditional ball gown, not exactly, but who’s still every inch a princess on her terms. She not only elevates the outfit, she elevates the entire carpet. Hers is the look that I will remember the most from these SAGs.
