She looks objectively cute but also this does not have the sort of point of view we'll see from her work later on. This was her film debut and I don't really remember her in it. ## 2018 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/08/shutterstock_editorial_9640729c-1629246557.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Steve Cohn/Shutterstock (9640729c) Awkwafina 'Crazy Rich Asians' film screening, After Party, Los Angeles, USA - 23 Apr 2018 Fun fact, my grandma had a tapestry pillow on her bed in this exact pattern. (This is sort of fun, though, and kicks off her long habit of wearing pants to stuff.) ## 2018, Top Shop ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/08/shutterstock_editorial_9641478hn-1629246568.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Matt Baron/Shutterstock (9641478hn) Awkwafina Warner Bros. Pictures 'The Big Picture' presentation, Arrivals, CinemaCon, Las Vegas, USA - 24 Apr 2018 WEARING HIGH-STREET TOPSHOP Top Shop! I do wish someone on her team had realized that the ankle straps on her shoes was interfering with the hem of her trousers? (This is what stylists DO.) (I mean, among other things. But it's a detail-oriented gig!) ## 2018 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/08/shutterstock_editorial_9644796cm-1629246579.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Mediapunch/Shutterstock (9644796cm) Awkwafina Marie Claire 'Fresh Faces' Party, Los Angeles, USA - 27 Apr 2018 This is mostly good, but! She's quite short and you can tell sometimes when they haven't had time to get things hemmed. That moto jacket is classic, though, and this is otherwise hard to complain about. ## 2018 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/08/shutterstock_editorial_9776129p-1629246601.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Gustavo Caballero/South Beach Photo/Shutterstock (9776129p) Ken Jeong, Awkwafina, Nico Santos 'Crazy Rich Asians' film screening, Miami, Florida, USA - 31 Jul 2018 Here she is in harem pants with Ken Jeong and Nico Santos, in Miami, and it will probably surprise you to hear that this jumpsuit actually worked best when she was moving around. This hardly ever happens. ## 2018, Reem Acra ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/08/shutterstock_editorial_9703961df-1629246590.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Stephen Lovekin/Shutterstock (9703961df) Awkwafina 'Ocean's 8' film premiere, Arrivals, New York, USA - 05 Jun 2018 WEARING REEM ACRA This is the jumpsuit for a bride in a VERY VERY chic cult composed almost completely of apparitions. ## 2018, Reem Acra ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/08/shutterstock_editorial_9785134f-1629246624.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by MediaPunch/Shutterstock (9785134f) Awkwafina 'Crazy Rich Asians' film premiere, Arrivals, Los Angeles, USA - 07 Aug 2018 WEARING REEM ACRA This is SO excellent. It's so glam and elegant -- she does tend to dress quite modestly, but you wouldn't really notice unless you thought about it -- and the accessories are fab. ## 2018 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/08/shutterstock_editorial_9782868le-1629246613.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Eric Charbonneau/Shutterstock (9782868le) Awkwafina Warner Bros. Pictures film premiere of 'Crazy Rich Asians' at TCL Chinese Theatre, Los Angeles, USA - 7 Aug 2018 She changed for the afterparty and this is VERY 80s Nighttime Soap Chic, which I enjoy. Throw a drink at someone! ## 2018 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/08/shutterstock_editorial_9786762r-1629246636.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Shutterstock (9786762r) Awkwafina 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' TV show, Los Angeles, USA - 09 Aug 2018 This feels a leeeetle bit like it used to be a throw blanket. ## 2018 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/08/shutterstock_editorial_9792604f-1629246647.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by MediaPunch/Shutterstock (9792604f) Awkwafina 'Today' TV show, New York, USA - 16 Aug 2018 Her embrace of color is one of my favorite things. ## 2018, Versace ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/08/shutterstock_editorial_9799656fj-1629246659.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Michael Hurcomb/Shutterstock (9799656fj) Awkwafina iHeartRadio Much Music Video Awards, Arrivals, Toronto, Canada - 26 Aug 2018 WEARING VERSUS VERSACE I remembered this one! I don't love the aggressive branding on the shoes -- although the SHAPE of the shoes is right -- but this is very cute and perfect for a music awards show, which is what she was attending. ## 2018, John Paul Ataker ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/08/shutterstock_editorial_9858751ae-1629246672.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Shutterstock (9858751ae) Awkwafina 'Crazy Rich Asians' film photocall, London, UK - 04 Sep 2018 WEARING JOHN PAUL ATAKER She really DOES tend to clothing that she could throw a drink in, which is a genre I obviously support. ## 2018, Prabal Gurung ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/08/shutterstock_editorial_9878257q-1629246685.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Gregory Pace/Shutterstock (9878257q) Awkwafina Prabal Gurung show, Front Row, Spring Summer 2019, New York Fashion Week, New York, USA - 09 Sep 2018 WEARING PRABAL GURUNG Very delicate and pleasant. Prabal seems like a good fit for her, too. (This was at Fashion Week.) ## 2018, Marc Jacobs ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/08/shutterstock_editorial_9878925aj-1629246696.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by MediaPunch/Shutterstock (9878925aj) Awkwafina 'A Simple Favor' film premiere, Arrivals, New York, USA - 10 Sep 2018 WEARING MARC JACOBS SAME OUTFIT AS CATWALK MODEL \*9375965ab AND Xiaotong Mao This! Is! Cute! It's also at the premiere of A Simple Favor, which is the film to which you really SHOULD be wearing your fave pants suit, so....???? ## 2018, Rasario ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/08/shutterstock_editorial_9940772ak-1629246707.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by AFF-USA/Shutterstock (9940772ak) Awkwafina InStyle Awards, Arrivals, Los Angeles, USA - 22 Oct 2018 WEARING RASARIO I mostly -- like 85% -- like this and the other 15% wonders if it's a tiny bit too overwhelming on her? ## 2018 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/08/shutterstock_editorial_9960486i-1629246718.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Matt Baron/Shutterstock (9960486i) Awkwafina Hollywood Film Awards, Arrivals, Los Angeles, USA - 04 Nov 2018 But this is sexy and dreamy. ## 2018 ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/08/shutterstock_editorial_10014498ad-1629246729.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Jordan Strauss/Invision/AP/Shutterstock (10014498ad) Awkwafina The Hollywood Reporter's 2018 Women in Entertainment, Los Angeles, USA - 05 Dec 2018 And this is like Your Stylish And Cranky Elementary School Teacher in the 80s, which is a vibe I honestly am going to adopt immediately. ## 2018, Cushnie ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/08/shutterstock_editorial_10031580d-1629246740.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Rob Latour/Shutterstock (10031580d) Awkwafina 25th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards nominations, Los Angeles, USA - 12 Dec 2018 Wearing Cushnie These trousers are a bit difficult and she is working it. ## 2019, Elie Saab ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/08/shutterstock_editorial_10051748eb-1629246751.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Stephen Lovekin/Shutterstock (10051748eb) Awkwafina National Board of Review Awards Gala, Arrivals, New York, USA - 08 Jan 2019 Wearing Elie Saab At a later look, I'd said when I first saw it that I thought she could rock Sexy Widow, and this falls into that category. ## 2019, Elisabetta Franchi ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/08/shutterstock_editorial_10055918gt-1629246761.jpg) Mandatory Credit: Photo by Jordan Strauss/Invision/AP/Shutterstock (10055918gt) Awkwafina arrives at the 24th annual Critics' Choice Awards, at the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, Calif 24th Annual Critics' Choice Awards - Arrivals, Santa Monica, USA - 13 Jan 2019 This is GOOD.
