Lupita Nyong'o in Louis Vuitton

OKAY. So, I don't love this dress when she's standing still, and has her jacket off -- we'll get to it -- but I LOVE it in motion here. It's like liquid, and it's so cool.

And that jacket is really cute with it, and she looks looks fantastic, as ever, facially speaking.

Not as good without the jacket, right? That might be partially because she blends into the backdrop now, though.

But this? This dress is glorious, no? (I might not have done those shoes SPECIFICALLY with this, but...whatever.)

Basically Well Played: Lupita Nyong'o

I was thinking the other day -- and may have in fact written it here! -- that Lupita so quickly became one of those celebrities who need only one name. I mean, part of that is because there aren't any other famous Lupitas (like, there are a LOT of famous Jennifers; Garner, Lopez, Aniston, Lawrence), but I think it's also hugely because she herself is so charismatic. She NEEDS no other name! [Photos: Fame/Flynet]
