2015: Lupita Nyong’o
Lupita Nyong’o proved she could win the red carpet even without an award in her Calvin Klein Collection gown, featuring pearl detailing with a halter neck style. You could consider this dress a perfect investment, with its estimated 6,000 pearls that complete the dress. Sure, it looked heavy, but the Kenyan-Mexican star perfectly pulled it off with a sweet smile on her face. Its streamlined shape followed the actress’ curve to perfection, emphasizing the shape of her body.
Sadly, the dress was stolen from Nyong’o’s hotel room in West Hollywood and found two days after in a bathroom of the London Hotel. Hotel staff found the dress in a bag hidden behind a bathroom counter. Although there were no suspects, the officials were reviewing the surveillance video to find the culprit. A number of small pearls had fallen off the dress, but it was still, thankfully, intact.
