Lupita Nyong’o Was A Golden Goddess In Nicholas Oakwell Couture At ‘The Odyssey’ Premiere
Lupita Nyong’o arrived at the New York premiere of “The Odyssey” in gold, and honestly, nobody was ready. The actress hit the red carpet at AMC Lincoln Square on Tuesday night wearing a dress that fans couldn’t get enough of.
Her outfit was the Collins gown, a strapless piece from London-based designer Nicholas Oakwell Couture, named after screen icon Joan Collins and inspired by her commanding role in “Esther and the King.”

The statuesque shape came from a metallic gold floral lace overlay sculpted over a built-in, lace-up corset that sharply defined her waist. Below that fitted bodice, the fabric flowed into a long column skirt with soft Grecian draping and a bold thigh-high slit. She finished the gilded look with metallic gold block-heel sandals from Aldo, styled by her longtime stylist Micaela Erlanger.
Her hair, styled by Vernon François, was pulled into a sculpted high updo that framed her face and left her neckline bare for the jewelry to shine. Makeup artist Nick Barose kept her glam warm, finishing it off with a glossy berry lip that popped against the gold. Every piece she wore that night pointed back to the film’s mythology. Around her neck sat a Sabyasachi five-strand pearl and diamond choker, its uncut diamonds totaling 11.21 carats, and on her hand, a matching 18k gold Sabyasachi Bengal Tiger ring set with a bright blue sapphire. She rounded off the look with a book-shaped “Odyssey” clutch by Olympia Le-Tan, hand-embroidered in blue, navy, and gold to resemble a vintage copy of Homer’s epic.

The timing worked in her favor too. In The Odyssey, Nyong’o plays both Helen of Troy and her twin sister, Clytemnestra. Helen is often described in Greek mythology as the world’s most beautiful woman, making the gold look a fitting choice for the film’s New York premiere.
The New York premiere also brought together much of The Odyssey cast, including Tom Holland, Zendaya, Matt Damon, Charlize Theron, Anne Hathaway, Samantha Morton and Elliot Page. For Nyong’o, it was the final stop on the film’s press tour, and she ended it in gold.

Rita Dominic Was an Actual Ray of Sunshine for Her Birthday Shoot
Some birthday photos are easy to scroll past. Rita Dominic’s latest shoot is definitely not one of them. For her birthday on July 12, 2026, the actress wore a bold yellow monochrome outfit that instantly pulls you in. It is proof that sometimes you only need one bold colour to make a huge fashion moment. While every detail of the shoot looks great, that bright, cheerful yellow completely stole the show.

Her outfit was styled by celebrity stylist Medlin Boss, she wore a beautifully tailored, double-breasted yellow blazer with sharp, padded shoulders, a plunging V-neckline, and an intricate, sweeping pattern of linear beadwork and circular textured embroidery across the torso. She paired it with high-waisted, wide-leg trousers in the exact same bold shade, creating a clean, elongated vertical line and an avant-garde edge. She completed the look with a textured faux-fur coat.

Rita accessorized with matching yellow satin opera-length gloves tucked under her sleeves, minimalist gold studs, and a pair of contemporary, crystal-trimmed cat-eye sunglasses with warm-tinted lenses. Complementing the suit, her hair was pulled into a smooth, tightly secured high topknot bun to bring focus to her face and the strong shape of her shoulders. Her makeup, done by T.A’La Mode Beauty, was in warm earthy tones and a simple nude-gloss lip, creating a soft balance against the monochrome look.

Just days before this shoot, on July 9, Rita stepped out in a completely different look, an off-the-shoulder royal purple gown with a fitted bodice and sheer sleeves. It’s a good reminder of how she operates: she doesn’t stick to one look for long. One week it’s soft and romantic, the next it’s bold and impossible to miss. That range is really what her style is about, she’s not afraid to switch things up and try something new each time.

Last year, for her 50th, she went with white, soft and calm. This time she did the total opposite: loud, bright, hard to miss. That says a lot about where she is right now, more confident, more willing to try something bold. If this is 51, we can only imagine what she’ll do next year.
